About MobaXterm
MobaXterm is your ultimate toolbox for remote computing. In a single Windows application, it provides loads of functions that are tailored for programmers, webmasters, IT administrators and pretty much all users who need to handle their remote jobs in a more simple fashion. There are many advantages of having an All-In-One network application for your remote tasks, e.g. when you use SSH to connect to a remote server, a graphical SFTP browser will automatically pop up in order to directly edit your remote files. Your remote applications will also display seamlessly on your Windows desktop using the embedded X server. When developing MobaXterm, we focused on a simple aim: proposing an intuitive user interface in order for you to efficiently access remote servers through different networks or systems. You can download and use MobaXterm Home Edition for free. If you want to use it inside your company, you should consider subscribing to MobaXterm Professional Edition.

Devolutions Remote Desktop Manager
Remote access tools can be messy—different clients, unmanaged credentials, and no clear visibility. Remote Desktop Manager changes that. It centralizes all your remote connections in one place, with support for RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), SSH (Secure Shell), Telnet, VPNs (Virtual Private Network), and many other protocols.
Users get cross-platform access from Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile. Sessions can be launched in 1 click, while credentials are stored in shared or personal vaults. All activity is tracked, and role-based access control ensures least-privilege enforcement.
The Remote Connection & IT Management package enhances RDM with Devolutions Gateway for secure, just-in-time tunnels; Hub or Server for credential storage; and session audit logs to meet compliance requirements. Everything integrates seamlessly through RDM’s interface.
It’s a streamlined, policy-driven solution for IT teams that want full control over remote access without bouncing between tools.

Cygwin
Get that Linux feeling on Windows. Cygwin is a large collection of GNU and open-source tools that provide functionality similar to a Linux distribution on Windows. And a DLL (cygwin1.dll) that provides substantial POSIX API functionality. Cygwin is not a way to run native Linux apps on Windows. You must rebuild your application from the source if you want it to run on Windows. It can't magically make native Windows apps aware of UNIX® functionality like signals, ptys, etc. Again, you need to build your apps from source if you want to take advantage of Cygwin functionality. The Cygwin DLL currently works with all recent, commercially released x86_64 versions of Windows, starting with Windows Vista. Use the setup program to perform a fresh install or to update an existing installation. Keep in mind that individual packages in the distribution are updated separately from the DLL so the Cygwin DLL version is not useful as a general Cygwin distribution release number.

Royal TS
Powerful connection management is compatible with a variety of connection types. Using RDP, VNC, SSH-based terminals, S/FTP, or web-based interfaces? No worries, Royal TS got you covered! Built-in credential management. Safe team-sharing features. Share a list of connections, without sharing your personal credentials. Command tasks and key sequence tasks make it easy to quickly automate repetitive tasks. SSH-based tunneling (secure gateway) support is tightly integrated into Royal TS. Dynamic Folders allow you to dynamically import data from external sources. You can assign a credential to connections by specifying the name of the credential. This allows you to share a document containing only connections while your personal credential is stored in a private document, protected by your password. Royal TS can handle documents opened by multiple users at the same time and allows you to synchronize document changes without the need for a SQL database back-end!
