You Mac comes with an application that will let you access and run SSH built into it.

This application is Terminal, which you can usually find by heading to your Applications folder and looking inside Utilities , though there are a few ways to open Terminal on a Mac.

With Terminal open, you can log into a remote computer via an SSH connection by inputting ssh user IP-Address , where user is replaced with your username for the system, and IP-Address is replaced with the IP address of the remote server.

From there you can input commands to access files and run programs on the other computer. There is no graphical system for this—Terminal is text based—so you type out your commands and hit Enter to access, run, and make changes on another system. We have a Mac Terminal commands cheat sheet if you need ideas or reminders of what you can input and run via command line in Terminal. But if you do have some background in these areas, you should be fine. For us, an SSH client would have to be very impressive to beat it.

PuTTY fills that gap. This saves a lot of time when logging in and switching between remote computers. It might make sense to just use Terminal rather than downloading a totally separate application for the same basic functions. In addition to letting you establish SSH connections, it lets you perform functions on your Mac that Terminal performs, but with a bunch of extra useful features. It also lets you search through an iTerm2 Terminal window for a particular word or command, so you can get to that bit of code in seconds.

Copying and pasting in iTerm2 is a lot easier than it is in PuTTY for Mac, and it keeps a paste history for you so you can quickly find the second-to-last item you copied. It also lets you go back and recover text you deleted or changed with an Instant Replay feature.
