Product Description:

CrushFTP handles FTP, SFTP (SSH FTP), FTPS (FTP over SSL), HTTP, HTTPS, WebDAV, and WebDAV SSL. WebDAV allows you to use the OS X Finder to connect to the server and work on it as if it were another hard drive on your machine. Read, write, rename. all with WebDAV. The built in fully customizable WebInterface allows you to present a website to customers so they can easily upload files to you, or download files to you. It has support for drag and drop uploading on the Web site, as well as the ability to upload folders while zipping them on the fly. This saves time and bandwidth. Or you can use the browser uploader to queue up file transfers and submit them all at once. Easily setup e-mails to come to you when a user uploads a files. You can drag and drop folders on a user to grant them access to the folder. The user will then only be able to access that folder. Lastly, the plugin support for CrushFTP allows for a whole new set of expandable features.

Thank You Ben! - Version: 4.9.3, 1/6/2009 03:29PM PST

I am an independent Graphic Designer and I need to be able to transfer large files between my clients and myself regularly. I had been relying on other people's ftp sites and had even used the GoDaddy online file folder service but found it did not allow my clients to send files to me.

I started doing some serious research, actually found another ftp solution, tried and failed to get it to work. I finally gave up and figured I'd have to hire a consultant—remember I'm a designer, not an IT person—I called a local IT company who recommended I try CrushFTP.

After trying to set everything up myself I sent an inquiry to Ben who promptly answered it, explaining everything that I did not understand. Ben answered all of my questions and continued to hold my hand throughout the process. I even contacted him once to ask about odd entries in the log and he reassured me it was all normal.

To top it off we had a power surge last week and I had to make some repairs, Ben was there again to help me get things straightened out. Setting up my own ftp server will end up saving me money and will make my job a lot easier.

I cannot speak highly enough of this software and its author Ben Spinks.

Thanks Ben!!!

We are a busy Soho Post Production House with Agencies constatly having issues with Firewalls and plain silliness - Crush FTP is one of our essential tools for business.

Not only will it run on all platforms but it allows me to customise and personise the interface - the most amaing feature I have found is the JAVA stand alone app that allows you to create users and passwords from your desktop - thus taking out the Remoting into servers.

Not only did I receive quick technical support but great advice on how to use the product - DIRECTLY FROM THE DEVELOPER !

Ben - Brilliant work keep it up !
