Auto FTP Manager Description
Auto FTP Manager is a user-friendly FTP client designed specifically for helping you download and upload files, and back up servers. It comes with support for a built-in scheduler, automated transfer rules for handling complex transfer tasks, as well as logs that keep information about all your transfers.
Intuitive interface
The utility makes use of multiple profiles for managing transfer processes. A wizard pops out when you open the program for the first time for guiding you in creating a new profile.
The layout looks user-friendly so even rookies can easily learn to configure file transfers. It implements a multi-tabbed layout for handling different sessions at the same time. Additionally, you can start or stop the transfer with just one click.
Defining a new profile
Auto FTP Manager gives you the possibility to transfer files between a PC folder or network drive and FTP server, two FTP servers, as well as two PC folders or network drives. Plus, profiles can be backed up.
What’s more, you choose between a quick connect profile that is suitable for fast FTP connection using the built-in file manager (you can also manually transfer, rename and delete files and folders) or automated transfer profile for defining action rules to automate the transfer task.
When it comes to adding FTP connection details, you can pick the protocol and add information about the FTP address, user name, password and port.
Built-in file manager
Auto FTP Manager integrates a file manager that helps you manage file transfers in a dual panel. You can make use of drag-and-drop operations, create new folders and text documents, cut, copy, paste, delete or rename files, check item properties, select all files, add folders to the queue list, refresh the current information and reveal data by large icons, details or list.
At the bottom of the dual panel you can check out a log with details about the folders that you have transferred from one location to another and manage queued folders.
Automated transfer settings, filters and scheduler
You are entitled to alter several settings when it comes to defining an automated file transfer process, such as transfer files from one location to another and delete the files from the initial destination, sync data, and overwrite files if they are present in the target location.
What’s more, you can add filters for including or excluding items based on modification date, file size, filename, as well as extension. The scheduler gives you the freedom to log in to Windows when it is required to run the schedule (you need to provide info about the username and password), run the automate profile once, daily, weekly, monthly, at custom intervals or application startup, and pick the date and start time.
Configuration settings
You can run the utility at Windows startup, show passwords, merge or skip folders that are already present in the destination, overwrite, resume, rename or skip files if they exist in the target location and pick the temporary working directory.
Furthermore, the tool lets you retry the login several times before aborting and give server some minutes to respond in case of connection failure, activate the keep alive mode, and save every transfer log or only when a failure occurs to your computer, network drive, FTP server or send it via email.
An overall reliable FTP client
All in all, Auto FTP Manager mixes up a user-friendly interface with powerful features for helping you manage the file transfer process. Its easy-to-decode GUI and wizards make this tool suitable especially for first-time FTP users.
