I tried both ConEmu (twice) and Console2 in the past, but both were too unstable for regular use. If someone can convince me that the situation has markedly improved, I might try again, but I guess I'll just wait until we upgrade to Windows 10 at my workplace (which they say is any day now).
- DominoTree 11y agoConEmu does seem to have gotten a lot more stable in the last few months
- bmj 11y agoI'll confirm this. During a previous project, it would sometimes crash, or history would get wonky, but I've not seen any of those behaviors while working on my current project. I generally am just using the terminal to run tasks, so I'm not sure I qualify as a "power user."
- rents 11y agoI have been using ConEmu since December and I am yet to run in issue. I use it with Gow and clink. What issues did you face?
- gpvos 11y agoCrashes of the console, usually happening after executing a few commands. This was a few years ago, probably on WinXP, but could be Win7 (I'm on Win8.1 now).
- krylon 11y agoI use ConEmu daily. I wouldn't call myself a power user (e.g. I never have more than five tabs open at once), but I do use it regularly for a number of tasks. In the past, say, six months, I cannot remember having any trouble with it.
- a3n 11y agoHappy ConEmu plus clink user for at least a year, I suspect more, but I don't keep track, I just move on.
- gpvos 11y agoHmm, just installed clink 0.4.7 (with autorun disabled for now). "clink autorun --help" consistently crashes. But at least it hasn't taken down the console yet, so I guess I'll try it out for some time. It's really a nice concept.
- a3n 11y agommmrrrm, don't know, don't remember. I do know that when I start ConEmu, I have to ctrl-alt-J to get command line features. So maybe I had trouble with autorun too? Don't remember.

- vram22 11y agoI've tried one or both earlier. Didn't quite get what the difference is. (Maybe did not check well enough at the time.) Are they related tools, or is one a substitute for the other?

- necrophrenic 11y agoI use ConEmu (actually cmder - ConEmu with some out-of-box enhancements) every day at work under Windows 7 Pro. Absolutely no issues to report.
- tectec 11y agoI'm using ConsoleZ now. It's the successor of Console2; I have had no problems with stability.
- alimbada 11y agoI've been using ConEmu for a while and have had no issues with it as far as I can remember.
