    The UI was not user-friendly, so MobaXterm contain à lot of more features. But MobaXterm is closed instead of mRemoteNG who is open source !

    Most alternatives mentioned here have nothing to do with what MobaXterm provides as features. This is the ONLY real alternative for MobaXterm. And no, i have nothing to do with Royal TSX and i hate that it's not open source.

    Can't easily send commands to multiple terminals and allow user to choose which open terminals to send to like MobaXTerm, also UI isn't as good...it's the details that matter
