MobaXterm Home Edition is free for personal use. Company use requires Professional Edition.
No. Mobatek expects a Professional license when the program runs inside a company. Home also stops at 12 sessions, 2 tunnels and 4 macros. See Home vs Professional.
Yes. Home Edition v26.5 is used on Windows 10 and Windows 11 as Portable or Installer. There is no native macOS or Linux build.
No. The Portable edition is a single exe you can start from a USB stick without an installer. It still stores INI data in that folder, so lock the stick.
The main program is proprietary. Mobatek publishes source packs for plugins and some third-party components. That is not the same as an open-source SSH client.
Packed portable executables often trigger heuristics. Confirm the v26.5 package from this site and hash it before you restore a quarantine. Step-by-step.
12 saved sessions, 2 SSH tunnels, 4 macros, and 360 seconds for Tftp, Nfs and Cron. Professional removes those caps.
No. That value is normal for SSH X11-forwarding. X11 guide.
List price is $69 or 49€ per user, with volume steps on larger seats. Twelve months of updates are included. You keep the right to run the licensed build after that year if you skip renewal.
Mobatek ships a commercial Windows client that uses SSH and SFTP. v26.4 fixed CVE-2026-11879 and CVE-2026-11967. Run v26.5. Safety still depends on who you connect to and how you store the INI. Trust page.
