FTPShell Client

FTPShell Client is a Windows file transfer program for FTP, FTPS and SFTP. It uses SSL/TLS for FTPS and SSH for SFTP, and supports Windows XP, 7, 8, 10 and 11, as well as Windows Server 2003 through 2022. The client can synchronize folders, schedule transfers and automate file movement. It can unzip downloaded files and zip files before upload; a syntax-highlighting editor works with local or remote files. FXP enables transfers directly between remote servers. The Personal Edition is free for non-commercial use only. Pro adds task scheduling, remote file search, folder comparison and synchronization, and server-to-server transfers. Pro licenses are one-time purchases: $59.95, paid once with one year of updates, $79.95, paid once with two years, or $99.95, paid once with three years. Enterprise adds FTP script creation and execution, FTPS and SFTP support for scripts, command-line execution and scheduled FTP scripts. Enterprise options cost $199.95 as a one-time purchase, $269.95, paid once or $339.95, paid once for one, two or three years of updates, respectively. A 30-day trial is listed. License keys are sent by email, with delivery allowed up to 24 hours after payment.
