WS-FTP LE if you want it for free... But if you are prepared to pay a little, FlashFXP.

My favorite client has always been Leechftp, it's multi-threaded, provides all the controls I need, and most important of all... IT'S LIGHTWEIGHT... The performance difference is very noticeable especially on a system like mine that is frequently overloaded.

I like LeapFTP, nothing fancy, but it's small and it works.

FlashFXP.

Def. worth paying for. One of the few proggies I've paid for

I use CuteFTP Pro. I think it works great, but it isn't free.
Although, I didn't pay.

Dragonlich

LeechFTP over here too. Love it's speed and ease of use. Multi-threaded downloads from ftp servers is cool.

SiN

Many siteops don't allow multithreading...

Depends on how you plan on using it/on what kind of sites.

I'll toss a vote in for FlashFXP. I've been using it for a while.

Core FTP isn't bad either.

Holo

SmartFTP

www.smartftp.com

free for home use and works good. Best pay one is FFXP for sure.

I'm with Holo... I'm all about SmartFTP... been using it for a while now. Good stuff.

Speed_Gibson

filezilla has been my only FTP client for sometime now. I forget what used before that.

I've been really happy with smartftp.

Pragma

I also use SmartFTP and haven't had any issues with it - of course, just to be nitpicky, the original poster didn't specify what operating system he needed the client for, we all just assumed Win32.

SmartFTP is the best damned client out there.

ixion

I use FlashFXP to put stuff on my xbox, it was well worth the money. I tried SmartFTP once and decided I liked Flash better, so I bought it. Everybody has their own taste in programs like this, so I suggest you try some demo/free versions of clients suggested here to pick one you really like.

Latch

Bulletproof FTP. Another one of the few programs I actually paid for (I just posted in the 'best text editor' thread hehe). IT's lightweight, does what I want.. I was very happy with it (was is because I'm on Linux now and don't use it anymore).

tronims

I agee with him on both counts. smartFTP is good and flashfxp is even better.

Finchie

Filezilla. Plus, it's free.

Destrox

FlashFxp for sure, no doubt about it.

FlashFXP is good..
it's easy enough to use if you're a beginner, and it's really powerful to use if you're an advanced user.

If not that, I recommend CuteFTP.. that's a good one too.

Sexodus

I would vote for SmartFTP, i think it works great.


As for WS_FTP_LE, i dont like it. the main reason is, if you want to delete a folder and its contents it wont let you. you have to delte the contents then go back and delte the folder. where as SmartFTP will delete the files and the folder with one click!

RelaX

I am with the purty lady... Whenever I am in Win32 that is...

This is what I use.

WHY to use filezilla? Because it's free as in speech not as in beer. This means the source code is availible for all to see... thus, you can be sure that there's no spyware, no viruses, no ads, and less bugs. Why pay for a client when you can use an open source one?

I used FlashFXP's trial version, and saw no advantage of it over filezilla.

Sledge

I hate SmartFTP. It's bloaty and slow and tries to micromanage how often you update it. I used it for years, constantly annoyed, until I found a better alternative.

FileZilla gives you all the same functionality, much faster, for the same price.

The Phenomenon

IMO FlashFXP is simply the best.

Do not confuse altruism with kindness, good will or respect for the rights of others. These are not primaries, but consequences, which, in fact, altruism makes impossible. The irreducible primary of altruism, the basic absolute, is self-sacrifice - which means: self-immolation, self-abnegation, self-denial, self-destruction - which means: the self as a standard of evil, the selfless as a standard of the good.

The Phenomenon

The big thing that FXP has that most others don't is the ability to transfer files directly between two FTP servers.

Destrox

Would like to note that with FlashFXP's 3.0 release, its even better then ever before.
