SFTPPlus is managed file transfer software for automating secure exchanges among internal systems, customers, suppliers, trading partners, and cloud services. Its server supports FTP, FTPS, SFTP, SCP, HTTP REST, HTTPS, AS2, and WebDAV. Client orchestration can move files across services including SharePoint, Azure Blob, Exchange Online, Oracle DB, IBM MQ, and SMTP. Authentication options include passwords, TOTP codes, SSH keys, TLS certificates, LDAP, RADIUS, Entra ID, Okta, Google Identity, and operating-system accounts. Automation includes retries, error reports, structured logs, and server-to-server transfers without storing the entire file locally. It can run on bare metal, virtual machines, containers, or Kubernetes on Windows, Linux, and macOS. Policies can restrict usernames, administrators, and source IP addresses and prevent brute-force attempts. The perpetual server and client licences each cost $1,900 as a one-time purchase, per installation inside one operating system; there is a 30-day trial and no free plan. SFTPPlus documents compliance configuration guidance, but is not FIPS 140-2 certified.
