FileZilla Reviews & Product Details

Filezilla should be the default FTP client that you must have. I use it to quickly transfer files between local machines and remote servers, It the best free solution to my most frequent actions I do at work, uploading files to servers, also it's easy to use for everyone, even if you are a novice user, is easy to understand, thanks to the intuitive interface, since it connects directly between machines no need to use any cloud service to transfer files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe it would be really useful to add an SSH command line and SSH key generation to easily perform more actions on the server without switching to another program for example you can upload a .zip file easily, but you need to switch to an SSH client to extract, and as for look I would probably like a dark interface.

I love that Filezilla is a full-service file management tool. It was designed to be used for things like web hosting to move files around using FTP or SFTP, etc. I have found more practical uses for this software than I think the company may even realize. I love that I can use it to not only manage FTP transactions but without having to go into my settings or type a specific key combination, I can actually see hidden files on my computers. I also love that I can use Filezilla to permanently delete files that I would otherwise not be able to delete. On my Mac, I can actually delete the file without having to send it to the trash bin and then go to the trash bin to permanently delete it. I literally can delete it from the entire device from the local file side of the window. The other amazing thing about Filezilla and file deletion is this: I was recently blocked from accessing my OneDrive which allows you to keep a local shortcut to files in the cloud. With being blocked I couldn't access those files to even delete them. With Filezilla, I was able to actually permanently delete files and folders. This software is a must have on any computer I have (and I have 3). I also looooove that the file search feature on Filezilla is a billion times better than the search feature native to Windows OS and Mac OS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that Filezilla has so many frequent updates. It can actually be discouraging to someone newer to the software than me. It does get annoying. I know the company wants to always have a great working software and it is exactly that. However, I think reducing the number of updates in a given year would also be a great thing, or even implementing auto updates as some other software have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The design of the front end is simple and offers many useful features. For each downloaded or uploaded file we can now see the improvements.

In order to better diagnose a connection issue, I can see the Server connection details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Stopping some of the transfers, like when I accidentally include some unintended files, can oddly be difficult to stop. I'll sometimes stop a transfer but the transfer keeps going.

The best part of the FileZilla is you do not have to worry about the changes. Unlike in Linux, you have to ssh and then edit your code. But in FileZilla, you can download the file. Do the required changes and then upload the file again. You can also take the backup of the files by downloading them.

Also, you can just create the XML file of the site details and upload it, by doing that you can use the file on multiple Filezilla to have the acces of the given site Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Another reason why I like this software is that I can connect to multiple servers simultaneously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the installation was really easy, I have not managed to configure a file transfer manually. The program always tells me that I have an error but so far I still cannot solve it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FileZilla is about as simple as it comes for FTP delivery. You simply plug in the specs, store them for future transfers and it's a drag-and-drop tool. It also has safeguards for files with the same names, including 'overwrite', 'rename' or 'skip'. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has frequent updates, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but gets to be tedious to update frequently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't find any real negative points. FileZilla is simple and qualitative. Certainly sometimes the file transfer could be faster but I don't think this is due to the software (but rather to my company's Internet connection). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
