Software details
Software Description
Computer to computer and computer to server file transfer is a core activity in the management of websites and sharing of data. Be it uploading files to a web site, downloading backups, or working with remote server content, a good FTP software makes these tasks much easier. FileZilla offers such file transfer features with an open-source client that supports multiple protocols.
FileZilla is a complete FTP package that handles file transfer between your local machine and remote servers effectively. The software provides transfer capabilities that are vital to web developers and system administrators:
- Easy connection configuration. The software saves the server credentials in a secure manner and connects with a single click, which removes the need to log in repeatedly.
- Concurrent file transfers where several uploads and downloads can be performed simultaneously, using bandwidth to the fullest.
- Drag-and-drop between local and remote file panels.
- Support resumed transfers that were interrupted because of connection problems.
- Directory comparison to find out the differences in files between local and remote locations.
- Filename filters to transfer only certain file types.
- Limit transfer speed to avoid saturation of bandwidth.
- Editing of files remotely and automatic re-uploading of files after editing.
- FTP, FTPS, and SFTP support.
- Scheduling of multiple transfer operations through queue management.
The application basically connects your computer and distant servers. FileZilla can transfer files of any size, whether it is uploading a single webpage update or synchronizing entire directory structures.
FileZilla operates by connecting to FTP servers through standard protocols. When you make a transfer, the software negotiates with the server, does authentication, and controls the data stream between sites. The two-pane interface displays local files on one side and remote files on the other, giving a clear view of both locations when transferring.
The software is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems, which guarantees the same functionality on various operating systems. Frequent updates ensure compatibility with changing security standards and server configurations.
FileZilla offers the stable tools that are required to manage files efficiently to anyone who has to manage websites or transfer files to remote servers on a regular basis.
