Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Terminal at 4.4 against ServerBee's 3.7. Terminal also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly) and ratings volume (110 vs 6). ServerBee's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 49%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ServerBee sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per year and Terminal sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Terminal holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Terminal has 110 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of ServerBee's written reviews are positive against 49% of Terminal's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

ServerBee ships an update monthly, Terminal every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
