Reviewed by: Seth Rosenblatt on November 08, 2008
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 SmartFTP :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 3.0.1023.4 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Version: SmartFTP Client (32-bit) 3.0.1026.26
"good product but expect to pay annual fees"
Pros: easy to use. nice interface, stable,
Cons: After 2 years i had to reinstall the program but the licence key only works with the old original version. SmartFTP no longer provide downloads of the old version on their web site which forces you to upgrade. My emails to Smartftp got nowhere.
Summary: Nice program but after 2 years of use, I found Smartftp's attempt at getting a second licence fee out of me led me to abandon them and chose an alternative ftp client.
