Review on PuTTY by Byron Forman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool for connecting to multiple servers

My favorite part about this program is that it is very easy to use. I can use it on my phone, my laptop, my desktop, and my tablet. I love the fact that I can connect to all of them at once. I can also open a session on a server and connect from a different location. I like that it is free and that it is open source. I dislike that I can only connect to one server at a time. I wish I could have more connections open at once. I also wish I could use my mobile device for my session. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a way to connect to multiple servers at once. I am using it to connect to my school's server to get work done. I am using putty as my main shell/terminal application to connect remotely in Linux servers via ssh protocol. There are few things that i like about it but what i dislike most probably because its free software so there's nothing much you can do if your not satisfied enought. The best part would be when we use any sort of command line tools (like grep or awk) while working at remote server through Putty then its very easy to manage files etc from local machine without having to open another window!
