GRYPHONENT Used to be the Best but has been abandoned by the developer who simply doesn’t seem to care anymore. The app hangs, doesn’t complete uploads, and is overall very unreliable when to updating your files on the server. I’ve reported those bugs over a year ago and even got a reply from Panic, promising to look into the matter... but alas, nothing has happened since. I reckon they are busy working on Coda, which seems to be the cashcow at the moment for the company. I’ve switched to Forklift now. (Version 3.6.7) | |

TRIZTAN I have signed up for MacUpdate for the sole purpose of informing fellow sufferers of Transmit that there is light at the end of the tunnel !! I've been using Transmit for months and crying with frustration as it hangs and times out on my FTP uploads. Sure it has loads of features and its dead easy to use, but I can help but it just doesnt work properly. I have just discovered FileZilla and I can tell you folks - its FREE, it works and it just motors away without a single error. The transfer rate is way higher and it even has a wizard for checking your connection. Brilliant. Goodbye and good riddance to Transmit !!! (Version 3.6.7) | |

CAINER Except that the UI is f-ing ugly as hell! Well, I guess it is free after all... But for my money (and that's $5 cheaper than Transmit, btw) take a look at Yummy FTP. You get a Transmit-like UI *and* it's a rock solid performer. Never let me down so far! (Version 3.6.7) | |

DAN BRIGGS Very usefull and rock solid. My prefered one. Better (interface, architecture and osx layers implementation) and faster than CaptainFTP, Yummy and Cyberduck. On some features the young Forklift is better. On synchro, Filezilla is better and faster than any other one. Transmit lacks the remote SSH copying from server to server and the remote compression. May be for v4 because i'm tired of using terminal for these things. I did not test Fetch for a long time, did someone do ? (Version 3.6.7) | |

FRODO_LIFE good FTP client if it would not delete your files. Transmit has the habit to first delete a folder on your server and then replaces it which made me lose all my shopping cart settings. Say you need to update your cart and replace the folder admin I delete the config.php file from my updated folder and then drag the folder which does not contain the config.php file on my server so what does transmit do it deletes the whole folder on my server and replaces it with my new one without the config.php file. Any other FTP client I have used like Captain, Yummy, Cyberduck will only replace the existing files but will not delete the whole folder first which also deletes your config file. So be very aware.

TEXINICK I can understand your frustration... the same thing happened to me. Upon further inspection though, when you upload a folder, you are given the option to Replace or Merge. Choosing Merge will do what you want. I just uploaded an update to Joomla, and even though I chose Merge, I was then asked for every file whether I wanted to Resume/Replace etc. I had selected Apply To All, and clicked Replace, and still I kept getting asked the same question for each file. So it WILL overwrite the changed files and retain the rest of the folder, but the problem with Transmit, for me, is that you are given too many prompts. You are in danger of hitting the return button, or mouse button, on an incorrect button just because you are going through the motions for each file. If I select "Apple To All', and then click the Replace button, I don't want to see that prompt again. (Version 3.6.7) | |

IMAGE_CTRL Transmit is a reliable workhorse. I have been using it for years and have not once had an issue with the software. Other FTP clients i have used seemed bulky and non intuitive, so i was very happy when i learned about Transmit. Highly recommended. (Version 3.6.6) | |

MAC724 I bought a copy and I'm very happy with this app. It does exactly what it says it will do. (Version 3.6.6) | |

KEITHWS Fastest SFTP client I've used and well worth the cost. Excellent performance and rock solid. Unfortunately, the interface is becoming a bit dated, so I only gave it four stars, but it's still the best FTP application in my opinion. (Version 3.6.6) | |

MR.ASH Transmit gives you a very nice GUI and iss very easy in use. However data transfer is very slow and unstable. I've tried to copy 250 GB of date to my NAS and i got only a max. 5 MB/s transfer speed. On top of that Transmit always got files witch could not be transferred and terminated the connection completly giving you no feedback what has been already copied and what not. Not worth it's money at all. I've tried the same thing using FileZila and it works like a charm. Of course there is still data witch can't be transferred but FileZila doesn't quit the connection and continues copying the other files moving the not copied files to a seperate window. GUI is not very nice but compared to Transmit it works. (Version 3.6.6) | |

ASHMADUX Holy heck, i was just thinking the same thing. I love transmit- it just works and it works well. but I'll be damned if i didnt say that it looks pretty old hat..many of us content creators liek a nice looking AND functional piece of software, so how about it panic, how about a nice leopard-over for everyone's fave PLEASE update the interface, pretty please?
