#Ftp server to server app for mac upgrade#

Each is available for $30 on its own, or with a "lifetime upgrade guarantee" for a total of $45. If you imagine a typical file-transfer app as the center point on a spectrum, then Commander One would exist way over on the "MORE" side of that line, and CloudMounter far in the opposite direction on the "LESS." Both let you move files to and from remote servers, but CloudMounter pares down that process to its simplest form, whereas Commander One piles on features for power users.

But while on average, paid apps work better than free ones, some are far more worth paying for than others. If you actually shell out money for a file-transfer app, expect fancier features such as more connection options, droplets, and sophisticated synch abilities. Still, if you need a free app simply to move files to and from an FTP server, you could do a whole lot worse than this. You definitely get what you pay for: Neither ForkLift version will remember your server passwords or store them in the Keychain, and in ForkLift 2, Droplets - a mini-app that lets you transfer files to a specific destination just by dragging and dropping files onto it, without opening ForkLift itself – just didn't seem to work. In addition to the usual FTP and WebDAV options, ForkLift can connect to Amazon S3, AFP, and SMB servers. It offers respectable (though not amazing) transfer speeds, and a clean, Mac-like interface I found intuitive and appealing.

But the interface is a dud, transfers feel sluggish, and in my tests, the app once crashed entirely while trying to open a new connection.įree - Download now ForkLift 2 (BinaryNights, )įorkLift's creators are giving version 2 away for free on the App Store to promote their newer version 3, which we'll get to later in this roundup. I give ViperFTP Lite credit for incorporating Amazon S3 and, uniquely, YouTube in its list of connection options. Any bad vibes you get from that welcome quickly multiply once you're in the app itself. The opening screen for this junior version of a fuller-featured app features a cheesy come-on for both its paid big sibling and a selection of other low-rent apps from the same company. This isn't one of those better choices I mentioned above. If you're going to pay for an FTP client, you have better choices than this one.įree - Download now ViperFTP Lite (Naarak-Studio, )

Rather than use two panes - one showing a folder on your local computer, the other showing the remote directory to which you've connected, so that you can easily drag and drop files between the two – Cyberduck's single pane obliges you to drag files to and from a separate Finder window, a needless bit of extra hassle.Īnd while the program's technically free, it'll nag you to pay up often, and charges App Store downloaders a lot more ($24) than it does folks who purchase a registration key on its own site (a minimum donation of $10). But it loses points for a dated, unattractive interface – including when synching – and for its baffling decision to use a single-pane layout. It also offers the ability to synch up a local and remote directory, a powerful feature more often found in paid apps. This veteran contender boasts crazy fast file transfers and an impressive roster of cloud service options: Amazon S3, Google Drive, Google Cloud Storage, Azure, Backblaze, Dropbox, OneDrive, and DRACOON.

And its ridiculous update system, which downloads an entirely new copy of the app, then obliges you to copy it manually into the Applications folder every time a new version rolls out, would be less obnoxious if it didn't seem to roll out new updates every five minutes. It won't remember your server passwords from one session to the next, which can be a real pain with a long, complex password.

The program works admirably fast when uploading or downloading your files, but that's about all it has in its favor. Getting around FileZilla may be rational, but it isn't pretty. FileZilla (The FileZilla Project, )įileZilla is an open-source, cross-platform app, and that means exactly what you think it does: a boxy, utilitarian, non-Mac-like interface designed by professional programmers, for professional programmers. Unless you're desperate, consider other options. But in my tests, this ran relatively slowly, and I could download files but not upload them. Technically, you can use the Finder's Go > Connect to Server… command to log into FTP or SFTP servers. Let's just say there's a reason people make, sell, and use third-party apps. They don't tend to be as feature-rich as the paid apps we'll discuss later, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're a poor choice. You can find several FTP apps for a cool zero dollars.
