"So simple to use, obvious upgrade and standard for our entire Dev Team"
5/5
What do you like best about iTerm2?

When you're trying to replace an application/feature that comes standard with OSX you mean straddle the line between adding enough features to make it worth the upgrade without adding too much complexity.

This is what iTerm has been able to do. Almost visually identical to terminal, iTerm provides some much needed features and customizations that apple has not included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iTerm2?

Nothing! Really, I hope they don't change a thing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"iTerm2 is better than Terminal of MacOS"
5/5
What do you like best about iTerm2?

I use Mac and iterm2 is my default tool to use . I can save multiple profiles and open multiple sessions with shortcut keys and broadcast commands to all windows. The options provided are customisable and saves you a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iTerm2?

If the system disconnects from VPN, the iterm2 window takes more time to disconnect the session. Using Ctrl+C to disconnect the session does not work. This is annoying when we are mid-work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iTerm2?

Saving Window Arrangement could have been made simpler. It requires lot of work if you want to use a shortcut key - and you want to open a couple of windows with commands executing in each window. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"If you spend any time in the terminal on mac, iTerm2 is a no brainer"
4.5/5

A ton of options for customizing the terminal for your workflow that are not available from the mac default. Features such as the notes toolbelt save time and reduce context switching. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iTerm2?

There are a ton of configurations and it's not always clear exactly what each one does, but hey it's a developer tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
