Igloo FTP

Check it out if you're not fully satisfied with your current one.

I tried WS FTP, Flash FXP, Cute FTP, Filezilla, SecureFTP and 2-3 others I can't remember

mortenb · 02-23-2005, 05:24 PM

I think I'll just stick with WS_FTP if you don't mind..

Malkmus · 02-23-2005, 05:25 PM

filezilla is good enough for me

After Shock Media · 02-23-2005, 05:25 PM

I am still using cuteftp pro 1.0

ssp · 02-23-2005, 05:26 PM

So why is it better? I'm currently using SmartFTP and previously used WS_FTP Pro.

It's the best I've seen for connecting and up/downloading to several servers at once. All connections are nicely organized in bars

Paul P · 02-23-2005, 05:30 PM

downloading it now as flash fxp has decided to start using 100% of resources on my computer.
thanks for the heads up

I wouldn't switch myself if I was satisfied with what I have. I have not used WS FTP for quite a while, it was my first one ~ 7 years ago. It was not stable

I think you can only get the pro version now but it's very stable and easy to use.

Ftp sucks use scp. Ftp usernames and password are
send in plain text over your internet connection.

AdultNex · 02-23-2005, 06:13 PM

Looks almost like FlashFXP.

What's so great about igloo?

mardigras · 02-23-2005, 06:31 PM

I've used WS_FTP so long that it would take some change on my computer that conflicts with it to get me to switch.

It has a much more convenient interface for multiple sessions which I understand is not needed by all webmasters. Plus FlashFXP had some weird upload speed limit although no limit was set

MBS Auto · 02-23-2005, 06:39 PM

Ws and Smart are good!! each have their good and bad points

Tipsy · 02-23-2005, 06:40 PM

I FAR prefer a good SSH client to replace telnet and ftp

Most people here probably do not know what SSH is and do not care about security.

Well let them use FTP then we tried to warn them

smack · 02-24-2005, 03:14 PM

PSGuru · 02-24-2005, 03:17 PM

I think the only thing SSH does is encrypt the data being transmitted; The plus is your data is encrypted. The negative is that it's a bit slower to handle the encryption.

bdld · 02-24-2005, 05:31 PM

i've been using Smart FTP for about 6 months, its interface is bulky but once you remove all their toolbars/icons/windows, its pretty sweet.
