## What it is
Nexterm is an open-source, self-hosted server management application providing SSH, VNC, and RDP remote access through a web interface. It also offers SFTP file management, Docker app deployment, Proxmox container management, monitoring, session recording, and multi-user organization support.

## Use cases
- manage ssh connections from a web browser
- self-hosted alternative to remote desktop gateways
- access vnc and rdp sessions through a web ui
- browse and edit files on servers via sftp
- deploy docker apps on remote servers
- manage proxmox lxc and qemu containers
- share server access securely across a team with 2fa and sso

## When to choose
- you want a single self-hosted web portal for SSH, VNC, and RDP access
- you need team-oriented server access with organizations, 2FA, and OIDC SSO
- you want integrated SFTP file management and session recordings
- you manage Proxmox or Docker workloads and want one dashboard

## When to avoid
- you only need a lightweight local SSH terminal client
- you require enterprise-grade auditing and compliance features out of the box
- you need protocol support beyond SSH/VNC/RDP
- you prefer a native desktop application over a web-based one
