CNET Editors' review
Rich in Web content, short on cash? This free, open-source FTP application is handy if you're looking for a basic tool to handle FTP transfers and don't want to part with your bucks.
The straightforward program interface offers translations in most of the world's major languages. Caching directories speeds up browsing FTP sites. The only thing we found missing is bookmarks for quickly switching among FTP locations.
The program lets you download or upload multiple files at once from and to several servers. If your bandwidth is somewhat limited, you'll appreciate a feature that lets you automatically adjust transfer speeds based on the time of day or date. FileZilla also lets you browse FTP sites even while you're transferring files. However, you won't find a task scheduler to automate transfers. To transfer sensitive information, the program supports the secure protocol SFTP.
Overall, FileZilla is a good tool that will suffice for managing smaller sites.

"Difficult to setup"
Version: FileZilla 2.2.1
Pros
Easy to use, easy interface
Cons
Diffiulty setting up connections that I've set up on all other FTP programs. Just couldn't get them to connect. I've tried ACE, Core, Cute, Coffee Cup...to no avail. Still searching for that perfect FTP! Just might have to pay. Too bad WSFTP Lite is gone.

"Hard to beat for a free FTP client"
Version: FileZilla 2.2.1
Pros
Works great. Never had a problem. I like the status display at the bottom. Good site manager.
Cons
GUI could use a little work. Sometimes I don't like to drag and drop. Maybe some left and right arrows between the panes or something. Can't complain though considering it's free and it works great.

"FileZilla to the rescue"
Version: FileZilla 2.2.1
Summary
Although I wish FileZilla had a few more usability features included, it has saved me on several occasions when my other FTP client fritzed out. Well worth a donation if you use it regularly.
