Overall Satisfaction with FileZilla
We use FileZilla to review files that have been placed on Vendors SFTP site. Although we have automation put in place to send files back and forth, FileZilla is used to check to see if connections to the Vendors SFTP Site is successful and used to manually transfer during the testing phases of our transmission projects.
Pros
- User Interface is superior compared to other related software applications
- Easy installation
- Easy configuration
Cons
- Unable to create password as well as SSH key authentication at the same time.
- Loggin / Reporting could be improved to see cipher information
- Positive: Backup and restore so you do lose any of your configurate
- Positive: Cross Platform handles different operating systems
- Negative: Have to use another product when SSH and Passwords are used for the same connection
I use WinSCP in conjunction with FileZilla as it offers better logs and you are able to authenticate with key and password authentication. This too is another nice product, but FileZilla is a lot nicer to navigate and understand like setting up new sessions
