"Review of Xshell"
What do you like best about XShell?

Most users appreciate XShell's user-friendly interface, tabbed management, support for various protocols (SSH, SFTP, Telnet), and scripting capabilities.It is easy to use as there are multiple tabs system in it,and very fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about XShell?

Some users reported that the free version of XShell lacks some advanced features found in the paid version. Also sometimes customer support and occasional user reviews about bugs.tabs of Xshell often does not get displayed due to which we need to re run the script and use it again.

"XShell: Great networking tool to remote connect Linux Machines"
What do you like best about XShell?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about XShell?

Nothing major which I disliked about this tool. It serves the purpose very well.It could be better if auto reconnection is provided when there are network fluctutations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nice SSH client for windows"
What do you like best about XShell?

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.

What do you dislike about XShell?

One potential issue with Xshell could be its user interface, I find outdated or less intuitive compared to other terminal emulators.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.

"Very useful product for Web Server Management"
What do you like best about XShell?

I am a web developer, so I am working with many Web Hostings. Usually their system is Linux. So I use terminal to manage the hostings.

For this my purpose, Xshell is very suitable and helpful.

Thank you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about XShell?

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.

Thank you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
