Once upon a time, in the Windows 3.x days) this was the best FTP client that I could find. I have long since moved on and I use Core FTP now and I could not be happier.

This is by far the best ftp client around. It has been there for ages, no other ftp client can touch this - well worth the price.

Ditto all that... this app has gone the path of Nero, Windows, Norton, etc. B.L.O.A.T.W.A.R.E.
IMHO, the last good version was v8.03

Save your $55 for something more worthwhile. I stopped using this, beginning after version 5.x. It started behaving buggy for me in later versions. What I used to consider the best FTP client, is now the worst IMHO!

The best program out there for FTP transfers.

Since version 5.x, WS_FTP Pro's reliability has long given way to its needless complexity (and ridiculous cost, even to upgrade each year). This is the worst of the "kitchen sink" approaches to software coding. Find an alternative.

It's actually $55 w/o service/support agreement and w/o upgrades.

We had used WSFTP for several years where I work. But sadly, the last couple of years, they tried making the program look more beautiful & added features which we didn't need. We switched to FileZilla which is "open source", supports SSL\SSH encryption, and has a clean GUI with drag n' drop, which meets most of our needs.
I found out about "FileZilla", here on Betanews by the way. Do a search for it.

I see it's now up to a whopping $120. Interesting, seeing how there are a zillion free FTP clients that do everything this one does.
Funny thing on their website. its says "40 million customers can't be wrong!".
ummm...well apparently they can! And quite frankly I don't belive their are 40 million paying customers of this pile of junk either.

With a $90 price tag for one year of upgrades, this has got to be a joke. Right? Who buys this? Who could afford to?

WS_FTP Pro 2006 is evidence that the "kitchen sink" approach to software design is never a good idea. I like and have used it for years, but the 2005 version was consistently unstable, thus the quick release of this version. Although I recommend it for its maturity and polish, 98% of all users will never need this much in an FTP client.

Think you're a little late on this one...
Just checking the build date on my copy of 9.01 and it says August 18...8-]

I prefer it over Filezilla because you can connect to multiple servers at the same time, which are organized in tabs (like Firefox). I also think that it looks nicer.
