In our case, we have downloaded the Portable version, which is exactly the same as the version with installer, except that if we install the plugins that it gives us the possibility to install, we will lose the changes as soon as we close the program. An important detail is that we also have the possibility of downloading previous versions, in case the current version has some kind of problem and we want to use the old one. Once we have clicked on “Download Now”, we can download two versions, the portable version and the version with installer, depending on what we want, we will choose one version or another. The download of this software is completely free in the «Home Edition» version, we simply have to go to the official MobaXterm download website and click on «Download Now».

If you are going to test the software, we recommend the “Portable” version, otherwise, if you are going to use it continuously, we recommend the version with installer because we can install additional software to increase its functionalities. This program is only compatible with Windows operating systems, we have a “Portable” version that does not need installation and another version with an installer. For example, in the free version we can establish a maximum of 12 remote sessions, a maximum of 2 SSH tunnels and 4 macros, however, in the free version there is no limit. MobaXterm currently has two versions, MobaXterm Home is aimed at home users who want to manage their own equipment efficiently, we also have the MobaXterm Professional version that is aimed at professional environments, this latest version incorporates many more functions and allows you to customize the software.
