About Termius
Termius is a modern SSH and SFTP client for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android. You save hosts, keys, snippets and port-forwarding rules in a vault, organise them into groups, and connect with a click from any device. Paid plans sync that vault encrypted across devices, keep session logs and let teams share hosts and credentials with access control, which makes it popular with people who manage servers from both a laptop and a phone. It also offers AI-assisted command autocomplete, Mosh support, a split-view SFTP file manager and agent forwarding. The free Starter plan covers a local vault, SSH, SFTP and port forwarding and is allowed for commercial use; Pro, Team and Business plans add sync and collaboration, billed per user. Termius is closed source, and for local shells it is less capable than a general-purpose terminal.
Best for: People who manage servers over SSH from several devices, including phones.
