Terminal Programs

Since all my switches I ordered should be shipped at my house by now I was wondering what terminal programs everyone uses/recommends.

All I really know of is PuTTY since it's free and seems to be the most popular. I am wondering what everyone is using and why and preferably the cost if it isn't a free software.

For work its SecureCRT because it's what I'm used to and work pays for it.

For personal use it's Xshell because it has all the functionality of SecureCRT and its free for home/school use.

For home I use Putty Connection Manager. It works very well for my needs.

For work I use SecureCRT.

Iterm cause its simple and free.

Secure CRT cause sometimes I need the added functionality like console and larger customers who have lots of devices.

Not bashing you at all, but I just can't bring myself to use TeraTerm. I just don't like it

I don't mind it. It's simple and it's free. Anything has got to be better than Hyperterminal. Now that one I can't stand...

I can most definitely agree with you about Hyperterminal.

I think on my Ubuntu box I have been using MiniCOM. On my windows machine I will use Putty Connection Manager.
