I have used a lot of file management systems over the years but still find NetFinder the most stable, powerful and fastest app out there. It's obvious time has been spent on this version to make sure that the build continues to out performs it's competitors.

It supports all of the servers/protocols I need and then some. The filterable self contained reports are extremely useful & easy to use. There are also a lot of other extremely handy features for NetFinder users such as labeling, comments, the ability to preview Movies, MP3 & Shockwave files as well as the integration with Apple Automator, Keychain & BBEdit.

It may have been a while between builds, but it was well worth the wait.

Don't waste you time looking at the other apps like I did.
NetFinder is by far the best file management system out there and well worth the price.

This has everything I need: resumable downloads, drag and drop, and
it doesn't freak out with iphoto collections or bug me with inane questions,
gpl propaganda or bouncing icons. It's very slick and has displaced cyberduck
as my ftp client of choice.

I started using NetFinder again when version 3.0 came out. This is a really nice re-write. Easier support for adding shortcuts, single window browsing, more protocols and support for labels on remote files and folders (plus more). Automator support is going to be very handy.

Really stable and fast so far - good work.

I used NetFinder all the time back in the day and it is great to see its return.
NetFinder is back!
