Version: FTPDrive 3.3
Pros: Good idea, if it worked.
Cons: While saving files to the FTP server, only part of the file was uploaded, causing errors and inconsistencies that were finally found to have been caused by the program.

Version: FTPDrive 3.3
Pros: You can easily change connection settings and add/remove servers from one window.
Cons: However, it still doesn't work ANY better than windows built-in ftp client, which we all know just plain sucks. Gives constant (literally) IO errors when connecting to just about any ftp server, and won't display most folders' contents.
The only reason I'm even giving it a two, is because it makes the inevitable failure come faster.

Version: FTPDrive 3.3
Pros: Very few products out there to do what this one does - it allows an FTP site to be mapped to a drive letter. It also supports multiple FTP sites which all show up as directories within the one drive letter.
Cons: It worked exactly once - the first time - for me. The home directory wasn't correct, so I had to reconfigure. However, it wasn't having any of it. From then on I got nothing but error dialogues when I tried to access the FTP drive folder in explorer. Could be a compatibility problem with Vista, but it is a show stopper since it now won't log in at all - even with the same settings that worked the first time.

"Does what it's supposed to, but not very user friendly"
Pros: It does exactly what it's supposed to. I love the multiple connections solution that gives you a nice folder tree with all your FTP servers under one drive letter.
Cons: Had I been a mere user I wouldnt have gotten this working. It's complex and not very intuitive. If you're only a computer user, get someone more advanced to help you set it up.

"Works great! (I'm using version 3.5)"
Pros: Easy to setup & use.
Cons: There really isn't anything that I don't like.
Summary: Now there's a folder on My Computer that's linked directly to my remote FTP server and it functions just a folder on my notebook! It was incredibly easy to set up. As soon as I configured it, I opened My Computer and there was the remote FTP folder!!... read more
