What our customers think

“I think at the end of the day, we’re saving at least half an hour a day with Termius. We don’t have to look for information anymore. We just got to Termius, log in, and we just click on a host to connect. I don’t even have to type a password, I just click and jump on a server in seconds.

Quick Start

Download Apps to Mobile and Desktop

Termius users benefit the most when they use it on multiple devices and sync data via the encrypted vault. Termius is available for all major platforms, such as macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS. Follow the link to download the apps.

Vault Setup

Creating a vault is a necessary step for starting to use Termius. You will be prompted to do so after downloading Termius on your first device. You can also create a vault by following this link. You should sign in to your vault on the following devices to enable the data sync.

You can learn more about the vault on this page.

Store Encryption Password

Please remember your encryption password or save it in your password manager. If you forget your encryption password, you won’t be able to access your data because this password is used as an encryption key for your data.

If you forget your encryption password, you will have to start with a new encrypted vault attached to your account.

Adding Data about Your Infrastructure

If you were introduced to Termius on mobile and had a significant amount of data, then it is recommended to download the Desktop app for an easier start. The desktop app supports import and syncs with various cloud providers. The data from the desktop app can be securely synced to the mobile app later.

Sync with Your Cloud Provider

Termius supports synchronization with cloud computing platforms such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Digital Ocean. This synchronization only works when the desktop app is online. However, the data is available on all devices via the encrypted vault.

Importing

Import from a file is available only in the desktop application:

    1. Import the .ssh folder, which supports importing of .ssh/config, known_hosts, and keys

    2. Putty, MobaXterm, SecureCRT

    3. Other systems via CSV. The CSV template is available to download in the import dialog.

Data Organization

The best thing about using Termius is that you can set up everything once and continuously save effort by connecting with just one click. Read a short article about the main primitives in Termius to organize your data more efficiently.

Adding Team Members

Termius enables engineering and DevOps teams to collaborate by providing a team vault to be used as a single source of truth about the infrastructure. It is also possible to have multiple vaults if you would like to set up different permission for different team members.

Supported Protocols

SSH

SSH(Secure Shell) is a protocol for secure remote access. This protocol is highly flexible and could be used in many ways, like command line, file transfer, or port forwarding. Termius has one of the most powerful implementations of the SSH protocol.

SFTP is a protocol for remote file access based on SSH. Termius uses all the settings from the SSH protocol for authentication.

Mosh is an alternative protocol for remote shell access based that can keep connections while moving between networks or in the background. It uses the authentication mechanism of the SSH protocol. In most cases, it requires setting additional packages on the server. Termius has its implementation of the Mosh protocol that is compatible with the official version.

These are the settings that could be adjusted for an SSH connection:

    Port Number: 22 is used by default

    Username or Identity

    Credentials: key, password, certificate, or FIDO2 key

    SSH agent forwarding

    Startup command

    Charset

    Terminal theme

    Environment variable

    Proxy

    Jump host/Host chaining

    Telnet

    Telnet is a simple protocol for remote shell access with basic authentication and no traffic encryption. Some systems are only accessible by this protocol.

Telnet has the following settings:

    Port Number: 23 is used by default

    Username

    Password

    Charset

    Theme

By upgrading to the Termius Pro plan, you also receive:

- Access to your connection settings and credentials across all devices with an encrypted cloud vault.

- No restrictions on the number of devices to sync.

- Run saved commands on various sessions or servers or have them autocompleted in the terminal.

- Connect to hardware via Serial Cable.

- Authenticate using hardware FIDO2 keys.

- Connection through Proxy and jump servers.

- Custom environment variables configuration.

- Integration with AWS and DigitalOcean.

- Secure your credentials with Touch ID or Face ID and your account with two-factor authentication.

- Maintain your keys on your machine with SSH agent forwarding.

Termius revolutionizes the command line experience, aiming to enhance remote access for admins and engineers by making it more productive and enjoyable.
