Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This powerhouse FTP client takes some getting used to, but you'll be glad you gave it a chance. Don't be alarmed by the cramped, multipane Windows Explorer-like interface; you can customize the toolbars and windowpanes however you like.
With the Local Browser window visible, SmartFTP supports drag-and-drop transfers like those on basic FTP clients. But its real power lies deeper within its option menus, where you'll find CHMOD remote file-attribute modification, background file transfers, multiple FTP connections, passive-mode transfers, site-to-site transfers (FXP), and connections via proxy or SSL. Using the Global Queue window, you even can schedule downloads or uploads to more than one server.
SmartFTP may overwhelm beginners, but it's a natural for intermediates and up.

Publisher's description
From SmartSoft :SmartFTP allows you to transfer files across the Internet. It features an Explorer-like, customizable interface and supports drag-and-drop functions. Multiple FTP connections can be opened at the same time, and you can copy files from one remote host to another (FXP). Remote-host directory information is cached for future viewing, and FTP URLs are supported. Other features include a Favorites list; the ability to resume broken downloads; a global history; background transfers; proxy support; a passive transfer mode; and the ability to perform recursive downloads, uploads, and deletes.
Version 3.0.1012 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Version: SmartFTP Client (32-bit) 3.0.1012
"Terrible Version and Customer Support"
Cons: Nothing's changed in this version from that last v3 update. Still broken Transfer Queue that you MUST use. If you want to use an older version, you need to pay for the product or you're screwed. Why would I pay to use an "older" version of software!!! LOL, terrible company. I wonder if they intentionally made this Transfer Queue a horrible feature so people would pay them to use older software? Conspiracy Theorists agree? If you're going to pay for FTP software, Bulletproof is a better program (it let's you customize the client to your liking) or for a free software, use CoreFTP Lite. SmartFTP is at the bottom of the barrel now.
