QSpace
QSpace is a macOS file manager with a multi-pane interface for comparing folders and copying or moving files. It offers 12 layouts, dual-pane browsing, tabs, and window workspaces that can be reopened to resume earlier tasks. Users can filter files in a pane by keywords or search globally with the Spotlight index. Customization includes toolbars, context menus, hotkeys, sidebar groups, colors, and icons. The app also supports batch renaming, archive handling, and cloud storage access. Its Server Connections extension supports more than 20 server types and cloud services, including FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Amazon S3. The maker says it supports macOS 10.15 or later on Intel and Apple chips. A free plan and 30-day trial are listed. Enhanced Archiver is free; Stash Shelf, Server Connections, and Advanced Batch Rename each cost $0.99 as a one-time purchase. QSpace Pro allows one account to be used on at most two devices at the same time. The MAS plan is described as having no trials and no refunds.
