FilePort Pro
What it is
FilePort Pro is a browser-based FTP and SFTP client for connecting to servers, browsing files, and transferring them without installing software. Its file listing shows folders, sizes, types, and modification times, with sortable columns and breadcrumb navigation. Users can upload multiple files, drag and drop, download files, or save a whole folder as a ZIP archive. Transfers show byte-counted progress for each file. For SFTP, FilePort Pro displays and remembers the server’s host-key fingerprint; after a key change, it refuses the connection until the user confirms. Credentials pass through the service’s server but remain in memory during the session and are not written to disk, stored in a database, or logged. Sessions end when disconnected or after about 15 minutes of inactivity. The Free plan allows transfers up to 4 GiB and two concurrent sessions per IP, without saved connections. Pro costs $5 a month and adds a saved-connections vault, automatic resume, and a 64 GiB transfer limit. The service recommends SFTP because FTP is unencrypted by design.
