DOJO01  I am a professor at a community college and teach several online classes. Our college has a main server and I upload all my documents, jpegs, and web pages to this server.

Previously, I used a different ftp program. I wasn't satisfied and looked online. I have been using Captain FTP for several years now and it does exactly what I need it to do. I like the fact that everything is right there for me to see. I don't have to dig around to find things. It is simply the best!  (Version 5.2208)

USER938  Well, I like this software a lot because of the two separated windows, that allow a clearly arranged transfer.

Apart from this, this is the best App that can compete with the famous Windows-only software FlashFXP.

If I only think of the yellow thing-that-you-usually-put-into-your-bath mac tool, which opens two connections per FTP server, one to upload/download, the other to browse...

With CaptainFTP I have found a reliable and professional tool to manage my ftp transfers.  (Version 5.2102)

BARRY COUTTS, PMP  An excellent product and excellent service. I previously used "Fetch" for a long time (at least 10 years), Captain FTP is a lot easier to use (intuitively and functionally). I sometimes have to use Captain FTP to login to tens of accounts daily, it has never been an issue (the same can't be said for CyberDuck, which I tried briefly on a recommendation ... and then found Captain FTP). This software publisher also seems to be in tune with Mac OS X upgrades. I consider Captain FTP to have been a good investment.

Regards,

Barry Coutts, PMP  (Version 5.1)
