"great productivity tool"
Version: WebDrive 10.0
Pros
I have been using Webdrive for several years and recently upgraded to version 10. This is one of those programs that I rarely think about, but can't live without. The new version handles international characters better, which has been helpful when accessing files from our European offices. I've usually used it to connect to our company sftp servers, but I recently tried it with Amazon s3 and it worked like a charm.
Cons
single license price is high but bigger licenses are pretty reasonable.
Summary
Definitely worth the money. If you can get your company to buy a larger license for multiple users it's actually pretty inexpensive per user.

"Works just like it should!"
Version: WebDrive 9.12.2325
Pros
Ease to use, install. Excellent sync.
Cons
Actually, nothing.
Summary
My FTP site looks just like a disk drive (mapped network drive) to Windows. Instead of the nightmares of keeping version numbers, etc, I just modify the web directly. This gives a whole new way to backup web databases, with a windows script!

"The best and simplest solution to offsite backup and webpage update around."
Version: WebDrive 7.22 build 1612
Pros
Here is a program that gives you access to your FTP server just like you access your hard drive, thumb drive and other flash memory. It amazes me that Microsoft does not make it standard in all windows programs. In order to set up the program, you do have to have at least moderate knowledge of how your FTP server is setup. But this is not a fault of the program and they make the process as painless as possible.
Once I corrected a couple mistakes of configuring the program with my FTP server it worked flawlessly with no additional attention needed. It is just another mapped drive on my system that happens to be located in cyberspace.
Cons
The program does require activation but they did allow me to activate it on two computers in my office so I can have a backup if one of the computers fails. However, the price is very reasonable and I wouldn't mind paying the money for a program that is this valuable.

"Buggy"
Version: WebDrive 7
Pros
Good idea.
Cons
I edited a file by opening it on webdrive using frontpage. I made small changes to the file and saved it. Webdrive uploaded a blank 0 KB file in it's place, erasing all my work AND the original file.

"Excellent Concept"
Version: WebDrive 7
Pros
I can't believe all FTP programs are not based on this file system concept. I love being able to edit php file directly on the server without having to back out of what I'm doing to fire up my FTP program.
Cons
The first problem is that this product runs as a service - meaning it runs and takes up memory even if you're not using it.
Also, I can't believe I haven't seen anyone else complain about this program crashing. I've run it on several different machines and it always crashes explorer. The tight and buggy integration with explorer is it's weakest point right now. It could be that the crashes are all because of Windows but even so this should have tested thoroughly before putting a version number on it and making it available for download.

"I love it"
Version: WebDrive 7
Pros
I love the ideea of having an FTP client perfectly integrated into Windows Explorer and the new version seems vey stable.

"FAST TRANSFERS"
Version: WebDrive 7
Pros
fast and complete. and if you're transferring a read me file to another location, it STAYS a read me file. You transfer an archive file, it STAYS archived! I've tried so many others that would convert an archived file into a read me file and then I would have to change it back. That can get frustrating - especially if you're transferring extremely large and multiple files/folders.
And less problems with fragmented or degredated files when making multiple transfers of the same file multiple times. That was the part that sold me the best.

"Pretty cool"
Version: WebDrive 7
Pros
My computer runs fasters and I feel that my information is more secure, because before I was just waiting for the next disaster to happen.

"Use it all the time"
Version: WebDrive 7
Pros
This is a great app. It's much easier than using windows to connect to a server, plus windows seems buggy about moving files on a remote server. This app solved all my problems.
Cons
It should be more like $19.95, but it saved me a lot of time, so oh well.
