FTP Now for Windows

Used FTP Now for Windows?

Editors’ Review

Download.com staffNovember 8, 2008

You won't find secure protocol support or scheduling, but you will be able to download or upload several files at once to and from multiple FTP servers. As should be expected, FTP Now supports the resumption of interrupted transfers. Its strength is in its straightforward and flexible interface; you can move or hide any panel you're not using. Though the program doesn't cache directories for faster browsing, you easily can access upper-level folders in the folder panel.

If you need a full-blown FTP tool, this application isn't the droid you're looking for. FTP Now, though stable and reliable, only offers a set of basic features and settings.

The only downsides are dialog windows that pop up with every transfer. People who need to occasionally download or upload files will appreciate FTP Now, though its features don't trump those of many freeware FTP utilities.

Didn't work on Vista
WedadopestDecember 27, 2008
Pros
The initial interface seemed intuitive. (smart installation wizard)
Cons
Didn't work on Vista at all. Tried to connect to website server. Invalid operation, FTP now must shut down... Eh... I'll stick with Core Lite
Summary
If you have XP, try this, if Vista, avoid.
Very very very POOOR

Pros
I am a telecommuting knowledge center manager for a Seattle-based business think tank and I live and work in St. Petersburg FL. My internet connection and programs must work all the time. FTP Now does the job, really well.
Cons
The only thing it fails to do is toast my English muffin in the morning and even I admit that's asking too much.

Trial did not work at all on my Vista

Pros
Cons
The trial would not let me connect to my webhost. I download WS_FTP Professional and it works great with VISTA.
Summary
Simple and straightforward for a research analyst

Pros
I work as a telecommuting research analyst and I need to connect to the headquarters computer several times a week. Using IE7 was an exercise in futility but once I downloaded FTP Now the process became as easy as pie. (I don't actually know if pie is, in fact, easy, but you get the idea.)
Cons
Summary
Easy interface and uploading. Had some problems downloading.

Pros
The program is easy to use and straightforward. I appreciate that. It made it really easy to upload content to my website.
Cons
When I tried to download some large files from a friend's FTP server, the download kept going past 100%. My finished download of a 1.21 GB .RAR file was over 2 GB. Then WinRAR told me the file was corrupt. This happened two separate times. The program just didn't know when transfer was complete. It was a big ol' waste of time.

Pros
It's pretty swift to use in transferring files.
Cons
Extremely limited options. <p>At $29, you would be better served going with a free FTP application like SmartFTP, or even purchasing SmartFTP for the extra $9 and getting countless more features for your money.
