A Termius alternative built for Claude Code
Termius is a very good general-purpose SSH client — cross-platform, polished, with team features and sync. If that is what you need, keep it. This page is for a different person: the developer whose phone-side SSH sessions are mostly one thing — running Claude Code or Codex on a server and checking on it from anywhere.
For that workflow, a general SSH client makes you do everything by hand: keep tmux alive, re-attach after every disconnect, squint at diffs in a terminal pager, and juggle a VPN app for private networks. ServerCC builds all of that into the product.

Choose ServerCC if…
- You start or supervise Claude Code / Codex runs from your phone and want them to keep running when you pocket it
- You review diffs and merge decisions on the go instead of just tailing logs
- Your servers live in a tailnet and you are tired of VPN toggling
Stay with Termius if…
- You need Android or desktop clients in the same product
- Your team shares hosts, vaults and snippets across an organization
