what's a good ftp client for mac? - GoFuckYourself.com

brandonstills · 08-10-2008, 04:07 PM

I use both Transmit and Cyberduck but they both seem to suck compared to some of the PC equivalents. Anything else out there that is decent?

The issues I have right now are poor time estimation if it shows anything at all, poor resume capability. Each time it drops the connection or has an error I have to check the folders and see what folders were uploaded successfully and which ones weren't. To make matters worse they don't upload the folders in order consistently.

I think there is a FileZilla for mac

GrouchyAdmin · 08-10-2008, 06:30 PM

Transmit.

I use Coda. It has some problems with resuming but so far it's miles better than all other Ftp clients that I tried and I also use it for coding, etc.

How does transmit suck? i've been using it for like 8 years?

Edit: nm i reread your post.. I never have any problems like that and resume often as I constantly lose my wifi connection...

There is but its still too early in development. Kind of sucks. I prefer Cyberduck, but it doesn't close on its own now and then.

Try Captain FTP.

It beats the shit out of transmit. That is one of the most overrated pieces of shit in history. Going from FlashFXP to transmit is a massive step backwards.

I like simple FTP programs and Fetch is the most simple and stable and Netfinder is next on my list.
