"Simple UI and well organized"
3.5/5
What do you like best about FileZilla?

The most useful thing in FileZilla is that I can have multiple servers open at once and streamline my file transfer flows. The color-coding feature is also a bonus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FileZilla?

The user interface is a bit outdated and could use a fresher look. I would suggest adding a "preview file" feature since file names can become rather complicated. Other than that I have no complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An open source FTP solution"
5/5
What do you like best about FileZilla?

The FileZilla works nicely as an FTP solution and it is completely free since it is open source. It does have the normal functions that one would expect for regular FTP software and is highly customizable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FileZilla?

There is not anything that I particularly do not like about this software. If I really need to come up with something, it is the lack of customer service, which is not just about this software but about the entire open source community. It is usually expected for an open-source user to learn and solve problems on their own instead of picking up the phone to seek help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Filezilla - A handy SFTP / FTP tool"
4/5
What do you like best about FileZilla?

It supports SFTP and FTP, and it makes it easy to download a file from the server. If the network gets disconnected while the file transfer operation is in progress, it retries to download, which is the best feature I like the most. It can quick-connect to the server, and we can edit the files and upload it to the server back easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FileZilla?

Sometimes due to a network issue, it gets disconnected and cannot connect in a few attempts. It should have some basic text editor by default. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The classic solution for FTP and SFTP"
4/5
What do you like best about FileZilla?

The main functionality of Filezilla is simple: to be able to transfer files by FTP and SFTP to our server/website. In this action its effectiveness is undeniable. It correctly fulfills its function and, if you already know the software, in 30 seconds you are transferring files on the configured site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FileZilla?

Like most FTP and SFTP software, Filezilla's interface is completely outdated and sometimes even confusing. It would be nice if files could be edited directly from the software (and not by downloading, editing, and uploading it again). In addition, its free version does not allow connections to cloud-based storage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pretty straight forward to use, it allows you to send files between a FTP server and a computer while showing the progress of the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FileZilla?

The interface could be improved, but it cam be learned after a few usages. Also, initial server configuration might be difficult to understand for the less technical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
