Ninjakreborn Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Ftp Program: SOmething you use to upload/download files to an ftp server Ftp Server: Something used to recieve, and give files requested by an ftp Program My favorite FTP program is dreamweavers native capabilities. There are a few problems, like if you synch, (one time I erased a whole website), it doesn't always turn out well, but for standard uses I love it. My favorite FTP server: http://www.serv-u.com/ I only ever needed one, and this was my favorite, it's got a free trial, about long enough to deal with any project, and it is easy to setup, I like the features, I only used it one time so far. It was a very easy, and pleasant experience however. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/26252-ftp-programs/#findComment-158833 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ober Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Alright... I thought I'd post an update here. Over the past few days I've had issues with SmartFTP so I decided to give FileZilla a better shot. I'm definately using Filezilla now but there are a few features I miss about SmartFTP (mainly the ability to connect to more than one site at a time).

Ninjakreborn Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Fire FTP is my favorite for Binary (dreamweavers ftp doesn't support that), other than that I love Dreamweaver built in FTP support.

TheFilmGod Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 A good alternative is internet explorer. Simply write in: ftp://yourwebsite.com . Make sure you have your option on, "Allow FTP pages shown up" in the -> Tools ->Options. The best one I have ever used was the FTP that my webserver provider provides, Godaddy.com. They have this javascript one that never fails. Check if you host has one to provide you.

MadTechie Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 So the statement was based on your personal preference!! becuase you don't like the cpanel of godaddy as for my personal preference when i first used CuteFTP seamed very basic and while easy to use missed most advanced options.. but now days its more down the way you work.. as most FTP programs can all do the same functions Well, I guess it'd be more accurate to say that it's just my thoughts on how they are...

TheFilmGod Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Godaddy sucks. Cute FTP owns. Alright, maybe godaddy isn't the great host. BUT WHEN IT COMES DOWN to an FTP tool godaddy has a good one. So don't be basing your opinion on a godaddy's ftp because of their cpanel!!!

Salis Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I've used SmartFTP (Till I bought Vista <- IT WORKS....) But since then I've switched over to FireFTP which I like a lot. I have XAMPP as my testing server, Dreamweaver as my editor, then I just upload using FireFTP to my web site. Been doing this for a few months and I've had no trouble. I like the fact that I have an FTP "program" in my browser. Combined with PortableApps I can edit my site from just about any where I go. Works for me!

Salis Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 The license never runs out lol... oh well they don't know that. Actually SmartFTP is free for personal/educational use. (Unless they changed it) One reason why I really liked it. The stability for XP was great too. Not so great for Vista when it first came out.. I'll have to give it a try again. It really is a good program. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/26252-ftp-programs/#findComment-288074 Share on other sites More sharing options...
noidtluom Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Wow, nobody here rooting for FileZilla? From my personal opinion, because in my country and internet's speed is pretty disappointing, browser-based CPanels (especially the ftp://site.com for Internet Explorer) are 99% hindrance 1% useful. Note: I have not used GoDaddy's CPanel so I cannot say whether it is an exception. I've tried CuteFTP and SmartFTP before but for me, they're all pretty much the same, and since I started off with FileZilla I'm quite comfortable where I am.

NArc0t1c Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Well, it depends if the server i'm uploading to supports multiple ftp sessions. if it does, I use 3D-FTP, very fast for uploading small scripts/things. if it does not, then I call upon SmartFtp.

charliepage Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 First all but one person mentions my favorite edit program, EditPlus. Now, no one even mentions the great LeapFTP. Okay, it's nothing spectacular but I just like the easiness and it has the features I need, so never switched in the 6 years I've used it.
