A good and cheap FTP client?

Delvis · 15 Aug 2009 at 13:29

Hi all, I'm thinking of finally trying to use my web space through my ISP, so I was basically wondering which FTP client I could use?

Then obviously I'd have to go about making the website, but hey

Any help appreciated, thanks all.

www.filezilla.org

Free and widely used.

Cool thanks

I did see that as the first result on google, just thought I'd get some opinions. Good to see it's in the first reply

If you use Firefox, FireFTP is a cool extension for FTP.

If you're really lazy, bang the ftp address into a windows explorer address bar, job done.

Although Filezilla is excellent.

start->run->cmd.exe

ftp x.x.x.x [enter]

I use a mixture of windows explorer and filezilla (and fireftp actually)

+1 for FireFTP very good.

I use Filezilla and never had any problems with it

FileZilla

windows explorer

fireftp - never had a problem with it and it works with mozbackup when reinstalling OS etc.

ScarySquirrel · 15 Aug 2009 at 23:58

FileZilla all the way.

about 8 or so years ago, i used to use a FTP client called "coffeecup FTP" which was excellent and free, but has long since become trialware and crummy.

then again, i don't do any FTP uploads these days, so it's not much of an issue.

FireFTP is the most integrated solution and if you backup firefox data regularly then it's all seamless too

This and Explorer, the other one I use isn't free.

Started using Filezilla, pretty straight forward for what I need to do right now

Just something for me to learn a little bit in my spare time while I'm unemployed, wouldn't mind putting a half decent site together.

Thanks all, I'll have a look at the other options too.
