Royal TS review
A capable Windows SSH client for teams sharing encrypted connection documents.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Royal TS is a Windows desktop client for managing remote connections and server environments. It combines SSH, Telnet, serial, Raw and Rlogin terminal connections with RDP, VNC, web connections, and FTP, SFTP and SCP file transfers. It is aimed at Windows administrators and teams that need organized access to servers, shared connection configurations, and separate handling of personal credentials.
Its strongest area is connection and document management. Users can organize connections with tabs, tab groups and customizable workspaces, while encrypted and password-protected documents help protect stored configurations. Credential assignment, inheritance and external credential sources support shared documents without requiring every user to share individual credentials. Royal TS also includes SSH-based port forwarding through Secure Gateway and command and key-sequence task automation. Integrations with LastPass, KeePass and Dropbox extend its fit with existing credential and storage workflows.
The pricing structure favors buyers seeking perpetual licensing. The free Lite plan allows up to 10 connections, up to 10 credentials and 1 document. According to the vendor’s pricing page, the Individual User License costs 49 EUR as a one-time purchase for a single user on multiple devices, with no subscription or annual fees. Site, Global and Extended Global licenses cost 849 EUR, 1,699 EUR and 3,199 EUR respectively, each as a one-time price; the Extended Global option includes 3 years of software maintenance. The product also offers a 30-day free trial. Royal TS is a strong fit for Windows teams that value shared documents and broad remote-access protocols, but teams requiring another desktop platform should choose an alternative.
