"WS FTP Professsional Reviews"

Review by Michael E. Callahan aka Dr. File Finder

WS_FTP Professional, by Ipswitch, Inc. is a long-time favorite of mine. It's a powerful FTP (file transfer protocol) program that's amazingly intuitive to use. I have to say thatWS_FTP was one of the very first FTP programs I ever used and I know that I really appreciated the clean, clear interface. Thisprofessional version has lots of bells and whistles that the regular version does not have. Just the same, the program is intuitive, easy-to-use, and packs a lot of power under-the-hood.

WS_FTP Professional has a number of exciting features, one of which is the ability to backup your computer. I used it to do a backup to my DVD drive and it worked flawlessly. You could also backup to a Website, an external hard drive, USB drive, and more. Another really slick feature is the ability to totally integrate with search functions like Google. That means you can search for the files you want and WS_FTP will download them for you. You can also use WS_FTP Professional tosynchronize machines. Really a lot of power that anyone can use.

WS_FTP Professional also looks even better because they've added support for "skins." I have to say I was quite impressed with the flexibility of features in this new version. It's not just for filet ransfer any more and can be used for a wide range or applications. You can even have it create thumbnail images of files so you can get a visual image of what you're planning to transfer. This really is an impressive program and even if you don't need all the power of the "Pro"version,take a look at the standard version. I like the program so much that it's not only a Pick, but I'm also making it one of my Dr. File Finder Favorites and in 25 years of evaluating software, there aren't very many of those. So, if you're looking for FTP and more you owe it to yourself to check out WS_FTP Professional. I recommend it!
