Captain FTP Reviewmy choice for photo uploads to media and more... - Version: 6.0031, 3/16/2009 05:45AM PST

really good and ease to use application from xdsnet - they have done quite well job! so much FTP apps out there - and only some like captainFTP are compatible to different servers and protocols.

i am using captain FTP also with crowznest as FTP forward to send multiple pictures to several media clients when out of office (and meanwhile also when i am in office!)

i just have to upload my pictures over mobile connection once, then put them in some hot folder - and the files run over broadband simultaneous to all defined client FTP servers.
(email is no alternative because not running directly into archive)

and if problems occur - i really get feedback and solutions back! so i can just recommend their software.

also use isoftphone from xdsnet for VOIP

Use Captain for years now but version 6.0020 is very buggy and constantly crashes especially if you use sftp.

hope it will be fixed soon as at the current stage it's not usable for me.
