Manage updates with the Download AppCNET Editors' review
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.
SmartFTP: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, 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 1.0.983 includes several bug fixes.

"The BEST FTP CLIENT EVER"
Version: SmartFTP 1.0.983
Pros
It's realy the best. you can save the que list,
Cons
The only thing it doesn't have it's when you download from 2 ftp's; you must move top every file(from the second ftp) so you could take files (from 2 ftps)in the same time but maybe i don't know how to work with it. if you know please let me know:radumirelro@yahoo.com

"Looks great but tastes bad"
Version: SmartFTP 1.0.983
Summary
I was really impressed with the look but I ran into a few problems with this program. It doesn't download directories completely and the way it handles web sites is really dumb. It's confusing to use and I'm blown away that according to the downloads, this program is downloaded more than wsftp, cuteftp, and aceftp combined. It simply can't be true.

"Fast and Free for Personal Use"
Version: SmartFTP 1.0.983
Summary
If you're an individual or non-profit, I'd highly recommend this FTP client. It's very customizable, has excellent transfer rates, and boasts a good feature set. Even if you have to buy it for business, I'd definitely consider it.

"Beauty with Functionality"
Version: SmartFTP 1.0.983
Summary
This program has never crashed for me, all the buttons are easy to find, and it has many ways to do one thing. The only thing missing is linux compatibility!
