AbleFtp

AbleFtp is an FTP client with a twist as it is designed to automate the transfers for a more comfortable and effortless experience.

Getting the tool on the system is not too different from installing other applications and at the end the user meets a clear-cut interface that is intuitive and with an efficient layout.

Just like in the case of regular FTP clients, AbleFtp features a profile manager that holds all the connection credentials for the remote locations. There is support for secure connections (explicit SSL/TLS or implicit SSL) and for multiple encoding types.

The benefits of AbleFtp consist in its ability to schedule a wide range of tasks so that they are initiated automatically. Creating a new task can be a daunting process, at least at the beginning, when you have to select the type of the operation.

The tasks that can be scheduled with the application include file handling as well as monitoring. However, each of these categories has plenty of sub-categories that allow copying/moving/synchronization, archiving or deleting items, directory listing or downloading data from an online resource.

Moreover, there is the possibility to initiate administrative commands like restarting the engine, after saving all the setting and scheduled tasks with the appropriate data.

AbleFtp integrates a great deal of useful options that allow scheduling of various tasks, thus allowing administrators to focus on other operations. It brings to the table a clean interface that can be handled without problems and there is sufficient documentation to learn about the more advanced features.
