FTP Commander

FTP Commander is a lightweight FTP client that’s aimed at beginners who wish to transfer files to a FTP server with minimum effort.

While it doesn’t provide the advanced settings of a full-featured FTP client, FTP Commander relies on a two-panel layout that allows its users to easily browse the local disks and the FTP servers’ content.

Of course, drag and drop support is also available, so you can quickly upload or download a file by dragging it from one panel to another.

The basic commands are supported as well, which means that you’re allowed to delete and rename files, create folders and send custom commands.

Obviously, FTP Commander comprises a dedicated server manager that helps you add your very own entries to the list, with the required information including name, port and server address, user and password, plus a few other options such as passive mode, and anonymous login.

The settings menu boasts only a limited number of options to play with, but nothing too complicated, regardless if you’re a beginner or not.

Still, a help manual is also available, just in case you need more information on one of the available features.

FTP Commander proved to be a stable and reliable tool during our test, working just fine on all Windows versions and without requiring administrator privileges on Windows 7 workstations.

Which means that our conclusion is a rather good one: FTP Commander is the right FTP client for beginners who wish nothing more than a simple tool to upload or download files with a few clicks. Users expecting much more than that have no other option that to look elsewhere.
