Emacs TRAMP mode can do that too; it supports SSH, sudo (to edit as a different user), and I think a bunch of other protocols. It also supports multi-hop, e.g. edit as sudo, on a remote server, connected via an intermediate bastion/proxy machine.

TRAMP works fine with shell-mode, version control (e.g. magit), dired (file browser), etc. too :)
