CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on November 07, 2008
Built around a gorgeous, newly overhauled interface, this free, GPL-licensed FTP browser is a lean, mean, file-managing machine. Cyberduck can communicate with standard FTP volumes as well as the more secure SFTP. The application easily manages bookmarks with an OS X-styled drawer. We like the quick-connect drop-down, which allows you to pop into recently accessed or bookmarked servers in a snap. We generally found both upstream and downstream file transfers to be speedy.
While Cyberduck can be seen as limited in terms of functionality because of its entry-level nature, the program handles basic tasks with ease. We recommend Cyberduck to anyone looking for a solid FTP browser.

Version: Cyberduck 3.3b4
"Full featured, easy to use and powerful ftp program."
Pros: Lots of features. It has an interface that is slightly different from other ftp programs, but is easy to figure out and very powerful with its many features. I also like the bookmarks history.
Cons: None found so far after using it briefly.
Summary: I like the single window interface. Most GUI ftp programs have 2 windows open and you transfer from the local window to the remote connection window or vice versa. This program has one window to the remote host and you can upload using the action me... read more >>
