Syncplify AFT!
2711 Centerville Rd. Suite 400, Wilmington, DE 19808, USA
What it is
Syncplify AFT! is paid software for automating file-transfer workflows with scripts. Jobs use SyncJS, an ECMAScript 5.1-based engine extended with more than 200 file-transfer functions. Through one virtual file-system interface, scripts can handle local files, SFTP, AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, and Google Cloud Storage. Workflows can start on Cron-compatible schedules, filesystem events, or REST API triggers. The function library includes CSV and XML parsing, HMAC and PGP operations, SQL, AMQP, HTTP/S, and notifications to Slack, Teams, Telegram, Twilio, and email. AFT! keeps searchable, indexed operational logs and stores credentials and API keys in an encrypted secrets store for runtime retrieval. It runs on Windows and Linux and can deploy on bare metal, virtual machines, or Docker. The VS Code extension adds language-server support, autocomplete, documentation, and an MCP server. Pricing starts at $99 per machine or VM, with a 15-day trial.
