    Works quite well for SSH and Telnet but no RDP. Also it's not really open source as what's provided is very out of date and incomplete.

    Much like mRemoteNG, it integrates not just console connections like Telnet or SSH, but also VNC and RDP connections. It also let's you group and organize connections with folders.

    It has all the features that mRemoteNG in terms of console and this big PLUS it's its great X Shell support. When Xming refuses to work right, XShell saves the day.
