What do you dislike about SolarWinds Serv-U FTP Server?

The main thing I dislike is that the interface can feel a little dated and some configuration options take time to understand. Initial setup and advanced settings can also require more technical knowledge than expected. The licensing cost can be another consideration for smaller teams or organizations.
