CNET editors' review
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: SmartFTP Client (32-bit) 3.0.1015.5
Pros: Easy to use
Cons: After years of use, SmartFTP has upset me for the last time. I used this for non-commercial use to upload to a community website I maintain. Tonight I REALLY needed to get stuff uploaded and it went into it's "you have to update" state. I couldn't get the download to complete, so I found FileZilla and dumped SmartFTP. Here's an idea...either auto-update or keep running under the old version. What's so critical about the updated versions that I have to keep current?
