Product Description:

Take Transmit, our long standing, very Mac-like FTP / SFTP client. Then, add a ton of new features, including column view, tabs, a sidebar, new favorites, search, dock status, spring loaded folders, iDisk and WebDAV support, and much more.

The end result? We think it's the ultimate Mac FTP client, with more innovative features than anywhere else, and it makes FTP as simple, easy, and fun as, well, the Mac!

What's new in this version:

Stateless protocols (like WebDAV) do not need to “unwind�? the current directory at the end of a deep transfer, so they no longer do

excellent ftp software - Version: 3.6.9, 11/17/2009 07:32AM PST

I keep trying other ftp software over the years, some free and some not, but this consistently has the fewest issues. It is also the only ftp software I've used that does not freak out over or hide files that have unicode text file names (Japanese).

Great value - Version: 3.6.9, 10/31/2009 10:07AM PST

Coming from Windows two years ago to Macs...I needed a dependable FTP client. I left Voyager and Transmit took it's place.

Awesome program!
