ZOC Terminal for Windows

User Reviews

• Very professional piece of software, good support...

  vg10steelAugust 9, 2013

  Pros

  Looks very modern (not like some ported 80's piece of 16bit terminal) and well laid out. Haven't had a single bug (one incident when I thought it was one, wasn't and the issue was quickly solved and explained by support). Can use on both MacOS and Windows with one license.

  Cons

  Can be confusing at first ... e.g. hard to find the options you need among those you don't. A bit on the expensive side.

  Summary

  Not exactly a bargain, but fair value for the price if you're willing to pay for quality rather than making compromises in order to use something free.

• Does the job ....and nicely

  Bo2XFebruary 16, 2010

  Pros

  It's well thought out for day to day use, e.g. you can practically reach every function with keyboard or keyboard shortcuts. The thumbnail overview for multiple sessions is helpful too.

  Cons

  It took me a while to find my way around the many options.

  Summary

  Although there are free and less expensive emulators out there, overall I think it's well worth the price because it feels like it's made for people who use software like this every day. Also, it's a bit like WinWord ... it has way more features than you need, but still nobody uses WordPad.

• Modern SSH/Telnet Client with all the features

  ShimodaxMay 14, 2009

  Pros

  Connecting to all types of hosts (Linux, IBM, Cisco gear) within one app, even at the same time. Fast with low memory and disk footprint. Clean modern looks

  Cons

  With the many options, it's sometimes hard to find the one you need.

• Professional's power SSH/Telnet/Serial Term Program

  keithchristianApril 22, 2009

  Pros

  Great for professional Unix/Linux/Cisco Admins. SSH, Telnet, Named Pipes, or RS-232 connections. SCP, Zmodem, Ymodem, Xmodem, Kermit, even over TCP/IP. Session activity indicators. Scripting language. Send the same command to every open session.

  Cons

  Hard to say - this is the best term program out of a dozen that I've used over the years.

  Summary

  For me, Zoc is a productivity tool in my daily work as a SysAdmin. Hotkeys, macros, and the buit in REXX scripting language help me stay on top of 100+ network devices. I can monitor activity on a half dozen systems at once, using the traffic indicators built into the tabbed interface. If I need details about a CLI session from 6 months ago, I can get them from the logfiles that Zoc can automatically record to disk. Zoc can even be used in unattended mode, where it can be invoke a macro or REXX script to accomplish tasks at any time, unattended. Monitor the results of these unattended sessions by consulting Zoc's log files. I think that every Solaris, Linux, HpUX, AIX, Cisco administrator, or serious terminal mode gamer should have Zoc as their term program.

• The best Terminal, Telnet, SSH client in the world.

  techprogressAugust 29, 2006

  Pros

  Clean layout. Tons of options. Great support for industry standards. Fast. Reliable. This program is the benchmark by which all other client applications should be measured.

  Cons

  Beginners will need to read the very useful documentation and help links. The high price of licensing, after 30 days, is offset by a banner prompt that allows you to continue using the program if you can live with the minor annoyance.
