FTPWAY

Transferring files between two computers can be done in various ways, such as moving them via a thumb drive, or through an active Internet connection. For this latter option, FTPWAY attempts to help you establish connection a lot faster with a custom FTP server, upload, and download files with just a few mouse clicks.

First of all, the application is portable, meaning it doesn’t take you through a setup process to become functional. This allows you to carry it around on a USB flash drive to use it from any computer you’re working on. What’s more, registries remain intact, so you don’t have to worry about the stability of the target PC.

The main window is split into two sections to allow simple, and efficient management of both the source, and destination. By default, the source is your computer, targeted at the folder where the application is saved. This can easily be changed by pasting in a different address.

A connection needs to be established first, so you need to make sure you’re available across the network or online to be able to reach the target FTP server. The connection window allows you to save multiple locations so later on you connect without writing down all details. A proxy connection can be configured for more security, and additional options for using MLIS, TLS, NAT fast track, or passive transfer.

Once connection is established, you can freely move or copy files from one location to the other, given the target FTP server has provides proper permission. New folders can be created in either locations. What’s more, a schedule can be created in order to automate the process, and make it more comfortable.

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that FTPWAY is a practical application you can use to connect to a FTP server either via LAN or the Internet. The simple design makes it easy for individuals of all levels of experience to get the hang of things, while the scheduler component, and possibility to save the list of servers make the application worth your while.
