Why FTP File Transfer

A modern client for an old protocol

All the power of a pro FTP tool, with none of the 2005-era clutter.

Drag & drop

Move files between your machine and the server the way you'd expect — drag from anywhere, drop, done.

Resumable transfers

A dropped connection doesn't cost you the whole upload — transfers pick up exactly where they left off.

Secure by default

FTPS and SFTP with password or key auth, so your credentials and files travel encrypted.

Multi-connection speed

Parallel transfers and a queue that just works — upload a thousand files without babysitting them.

Site manager

Save your servers, folders and credentials once and reconnect in a click. Import from your old client.

No telemetry

Free forever, no account, no tracking. Your connections and files are nobody's business but yours.

How it works

Connected in three steps

Download, connect, transfer — no manual required.

1

Add your server

Enter your FTP, FTPS or SFTP details — or import saved sites from your previous client — and save them for next time.

2

Browse both sides

Your local files sit next to the server's in a clean two-pane view. Navigate, search and select what you need.

3

Drag & transfer

Drag files across, watch the queue, and let resumable transfers handle any hiccups automatically.

Questions

Good to know

What's the difference from FTP to FTP Transfer?

This free client moves files between your computer and a server. FTP to FTP (premium) moves files directly between two servers — no round-trip through your machine — and adds scheduling and automation.

Is it really free?

Yes, free forever with no account. It's a complete client, not a trial — there's no upsell nagging you inside the app.

Does it support SFTP and key authentication?

It does. Connect over FTP, FTPS (FTP over TLS) or SFTP (SSH), using a password or an SSH key. Credentials are stored locally.

Can I import my saved sites from another client?

Yes — the site manager can import connections from common FTP clients so you don't have to re-enter every server by hand.

Does it collect any data about me?

No telemetry, no tracking. Your server list, credentials and transfers stay on your machine.
