Top Rated XShell Alternatives
User friendly interface, and have all the must have features as on the standard Unix/linux variants. Good to have tool for windows and especially for people coming from terminal, putty, mobaxterm kind of stuff Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One potential issue with Xshell could be its user interface, I find outdated or less intuitive compared to other terminal emulators. Additionally, Xshell's licensing fees feels to be relatively high compared to other similar software. Xshell does not have the features such as advanced scripting or automation capabilities, which could limit its usefulness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Multiple Linux Terminals can be connected and viewed in multiple tabs in single Window when is not available in tools like Putty. It is really fast, reliable. One other most liked feature for me is creating duplicate Sessions in Xshell which helps when multiple Instances of same connection needed. It could be useful during System Test.

The weekness of Xshell is working with other tools such as XManager, XFtp, etc for many purposes.
Of course, their features are different, but hope to use One tool for those purposes.
