Where Termius wins

  • Any server, no install. Termius talks plain SSH, so it reaches routers, VPS boxes and servers where you can't install anything.
  • Native mobile apps with a tuned SSH keyboard.
  • Team vaults for sharing hosts and keys across a company.

Where Pane wins

  • Your whole machine, not a shell. Terminals, files and dev servers in one app.
  • Coding agents. Run Claude Code, Codex or Cursor Agent on a Mac mini or VM and steer them from your phone.
  • Free and open source. Audit it, self-host it, and pay nothing for sync or mobile.
  • Each device keeps its own view. Your phone and laptop can look at different things on the same machine.

Use both

Termius for the fleet of servers you administer; Pane for the machine you build on. They don't overlap much.
