Version: BulletProof FTP Client Mac 1.0
"Sucks and I only gave it 1 star because that was as low as I could go."
Pros: I don't like anything about the product, however, the only half way good thing that I can say about this product is that it works....not too good at that. The product I said sucks...what I mean by that is that it does work, not good, but it does. It did not crash my system, but it did hang up just about every time I used it. Got lots of errors. So, if you're looking for a product that "just works" and don't care too much about speed and re-doing transfers...then this product is for you.
Cons: Product does not work as good as they say it does. Their online support sucks big time and they don't offer phone support. You would be wise to stay away from products that don't offer some sort of phone support even if it is just to help you set up the product. Finding a good FTP Client product for Mac is not easy, I have tested several and the only one that I did find that worked well offered limited online support and even that part of their support was not good and more often than not they were very rude and not honest at all...in other words they lied...big time. No people it is not BulletProof FTP that I speak of now it is Rumpus. So, please look for my review regarding Rumpus FTP very soon, I will keep looking for an FTP Client that work great for Mac users, that not only gives you a good product but good support as well if needed. Now, if you use the Windows platform...guess what, you're in luck. The Best FTP product for Windows is WS_FTP, their product is stable, secure, and very easy to use. Now before I say another word, you should understand that I do not work for IPSwitch and they did not pay me for what I am about to tell you next. However, if I was employed by IPSwitch it would be an honor to work for such a company that has such a product line and stands behind their product 100% Their support is second to none. So, if you use windows give IPSwithch a try. I tested it against several other Windows FTP Products and they are by far the best of the bunch. So, if your needs require the client or server side FTP...IPSwitch is the best. Not only will they go out of their way to make a sale, but they will go out of their way to keep you as a future client.
For you Mac users, I will keep looking for a good FTP product that has a good client and server side that also offers support.
Sincerely,
