### Terminal Emulator: An Indispensable Tool For The Modern Workplace
](https://www.g2.com/articles/terminal-emulator-tool-for-modern-workplaces)
As the modern workplace continues to evolve, the dependency on different software keeps on growing. One of the core reasons behind implementing software remains the automation of laborious and repetitive jobs. System administrators often require the capability to access and modify legacy programs stored or installed on centralized computers, known as mainframes, or connect to a different machine in order to automate tasks.&nbsp;

Question on: MobaXTerm
[Why MobaXterm is better than PuTTY?](/discussions/why-mobaxterm-is-better-than-putty)

Why MobaXterm is better than PuTTY?

Tabbed terminals - enter same command to all at once (Multi-Execution) Simultaneous viewing of 2 or 4 terminals into vertical/horizontal split X server SSH server VNC server SFTP server NFS server Programmable Macros Port scanner Network scanner Notepad++ like text editor Graphical ssh tunnel creator/editor Games, diff tool, ascii table, more 

Answered: Edward Sphamm on March 21, 2023

MobaXterm comes with a number of productivity tools, including macros, a strong scripting engine, and a built-in text editor. By using these technologies, users can automate processes, design unique workflows, and operate more productively. Due to its focus on serving as a terminal emulator, PuTTY lacks these extra productivity tools. A built-in SFTP (SSH File transmission Protocol) client is available in MobaXterm, allowing for secure file transmission between local and remote systems. When interacting with remote servers, this eliminates the requirement for a separate file transfer client. PuTTY does not have native file transfer features and needs third-party programmes like PSFTP in order to transfer files. It offers a terminal interface with tabs that enables users to open many connections at once in a single window. This feature increases productivity by making it simpler to transition between various sessions.
