Recently when I am browsing internet for Unix connectivity tools I came across a wonderful tool called MobaXterm. As per the MobaXterm team its "an enhanced terminal for Windows with an X11 server, a tabbed SSH client and several other network tools for remote computing (VNC, RDP, telnet, rlogin). MobaXterm brings all the essential UNIX commands to Windows desktop, in a single portable exe file which works out of the box".
Downaload:There are two different versions available, one is free version and other is Pro.
I think free version is good enough to accommodate our daily tasks. If you still feel you need more then go for Pro.

I am really enthralled by the features its offering.Here are few snippets.
1) Inbuilt Unix Command Support :
When you open MobaXterm it will automatically open session which supports many of Unix/Linux based commands (ls, cd, grep, awk, tail, cut, sed, wget, rsync, telnet, ssh, rlogin, rsh etc ) based on Cygwin. You can further add packages using this link plugins.
2)Tabbed Sessions:
When ever you open a session , it will be open as tabbed session, just like Putty Connection Manager.
You can also save your session along with usernames and passwords
3)X11-Forwarding
The SSH connection configured with automatic X-11 forwarding.You can use this as fully configured "X server " and also supports OpenGL.
4) Automatic SFTP Support:
A SFTP session is automatically opened when you open a ssh session on leftside. You can download or upload files directly with a drag and drop from/to the remote server.You can also edit And save the files with one click open it in MobiXeditor or which ever the text editor on your system.
5) Remote Windows Connections using RDP:
You can access the remote windows machines using RDP adding as connection.
6) Split-mode Terminal:
