sFTP Client

sFTP Client · Colchester, Essex, United Kingdom · founded 2021

What it is

sFTP Client transfers and manages files over FTP, FTPS, FTPIS, FTPES, and SFTP. Its desktop client is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with an extension also listed. Transfer tools include scheduling, automation, queued and resumable SFTP transfers, directory comparison, drag and drop, connection logs, remote editing, and RSA or DSA key-file login for SFTP and SSH. The client includes tabbed SSH terminals, supports TMUX and Screen sessions, and can open a terminal automatically when an SFTP connection starts. Users can forward ports between a server and local device, including automatic forwarding on connection. The desktop app connects to cloud services such as Amazon S3, Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, and others. Connections can sync across devices or be shared with a team or individual; the maker says data is encrypted locally before reaching its servers. A two-hour fully featured trial is available. The free Basic plan supports FTP, while FTPS, SFTP, WebDAV, SSH Terminal, syncing, cloud services, and team sharing require higher plans. The maker offers subscriptions and one-time perpetual licenses.
