FTP Maker lets you create a custom FTP Uploader package to be distributed to employees/customers/co-workers to simplify procedure for sending files to your FTP server.
The advantage of using FTP Maker instead of a normal FTP client is that the application generated contains all the connection parameters, so the user does not have to specify any settings or set specific parameters.
In addition, the FTP Uploader can be customized with the logo of your company.
Once launched the Uploader, the user will only have to drag and drop files or folders into it, forgetting about the various

I accidentally downloaded the Mac license key instead of PC as the font size on the order page was 3px and illegible - ticked the wrong box. I asked nicely to switch and was told in badly written English 'On HTML exist the possibility to enlarge the font. Really we don't think that you have not read the difference between Mac and Win or from 5 Pack and 50 Pack user license. And nobody reported us this before.' so that's it no customer service for an honest mistake and obviously peddled by some second rate overseas developer with no clue on how to support software. AVOID.
FTP is an obsolete and outdated protocol.
Anyone using FTP should seriously consider using WebDAV.
Since DAV works over HTTP, you get all the benefits of HTTP that FTP cannot provide. For example: strong authentication, encryption, proxy support, and caching. It is true that you can get some of this through SSH, but the HTTP infrastructure is much more widely deployed than SSH. Further, SSH does not have the wide complement of tools, development libraries, and applications that HTTP does.
DAV transfers (well, HTTP transfers) are also more efficient than FTP. You can pipeline multiple transfers through a single TCP connection, whereas FTP requires a new connection for each file transferred (plus the control connection).
Do a Google search for BarracudaDrive, which is an easy to use WebDAV server.

You do not need a client if using Windows or Mac since a client is integrated into the operating system.

Zero configuration is needed.

"You do not appear to be using a Macintosh OS X PowerPC. This BarracudaDrive release will not work on Intel based Macintosh computers.
BarracudaDrive runs without any problems on an old 300MHz G3 computer. You can purchase a used Mac (Mini) PowePC for as low as $20 on E-Bay."
Seriously...are you promoting your own product?
