If you happen to work with *nix servers, Putty is a must-have. It's configuration UI is a little geeky and counter-intuitive, but most people who work with *nix servers can live with that :) And we don't have much choice BTW.
I love putty. If it weren't for putty, I'd probably be missing several limbs and/or eyeballs right now.
This is a bit strange!. This application has 113 likes and its alternatives have only 5 likes?. SSH has been around since ages and many people use it in their everyday development life .... and still there are no better alternatives? ( of course a free one!).
i miss putty so much on my mac I use crossover to run it just like a normal application. Apple really needs to redo the terminal app, it sucks!
