    Not as fast and friendly as Core FTP, but an otherwise reasonable FTP program

    sometimes not the most stable program, but i've been using it for years and it gets the job done.

    I used it for a long time but it wasn't very stable at some times. So now it's free FileZilla. The synchronize feature is handy.

    It's easy to use, looks very basic. I use this to update my website, since I am yet to discover a Dreamweaver feature that'll allow me to upload stuff with ease.

    It keeps freezing at odd times though, especially when I'm uploading stuff in folders (Wordpress files, etc).

    Simple and solid FTP client. A bit on the basic side regarding the interface and I'd like to see a copy link function but it does the job.

    I have used this FTP client for a VERY long time.
    Very good, overall. And because I rejected Vista and got XP installed over it, it still works fine in my computer.
    Very simple and efficient.

    The only thing I don't like about it is that it won't allow you to delete whole folders unless it's empty. So if you have a lot of folders within a folder within a folder, or something like that, you need to go to your control panel and manually delete them to save your sanity.

    This one was around and proven to work for long time until vista came into the picture. Even their freeware edition of the program was good

    I need to check this when I have some time. Looks good.

    Awesome software that works great on XP! Only a few small glitches. Unstable on vista... :(

    Overall:

    Great features, works great on Windows XP, seems a little un-stable on Vista. Used a few FTP clients in my time, this one's the best so far!
