Yummy FTP Pro Reviews

10.15 is not working.

Anybody knows the future of this wonderfull FTP client ?

I believe the developer of Yummy FTP Pro sadly died a couple months ago and the website is no longer online, so it's unclear if the apps have any future. They are still available on the App Store, but it doesn't look like there will be any support or future development at present, unless somebody knows better.

I have a lifetime license and can't download the app because the hosting account is expired. Is YummyFTP no longer being developed....

As great as this is (I've used it for years with 100% satisfaction), sometime in 2018 it MUST be updated to a 64-bit program to remain compatible with future versions of OSX.

[Title] Sometimes, boredom is good. You know what's boring?! Watching Yummy FTP version increase headlines: ... Version 1.11.11, Version 1.11.10, Version 1.11.9, Version 1.11.8, ... Argh... all these nought point nought point X increments. Where's a race, a chase, an excitement?! Hmm... wait a sec, what are all these stacks of bullet points in a change log? Are these lines and lines of documented notes actually useful changes per such a minuscule version gain? [Normal writing mode *ON*] It's great to see dev's steady commitment on making a great app even greater nought point nought point X release at a time! PS. Just taking a chance at creative writing whenever I can :-)

From yummysoftware.com/news/ : "...please purchase additional licenses if you are using the single user license on multiple Macs." So if I have 3 Macs, I'm supposed to buy 3 licenses to run Yummy FTP on all of them?

I do not know if my question , did not find any sync bookmarks function.

on a single file the transfer is equally fast than other ftp apps. I've done tests. The difference between say Transmit, is that Yummy looks inside the folder and can do multiple connections. Transmit can do multiple connections too, but it will treat a folder as only one connection. so you can't call it Super-Fast transfers. And it is not multi-thread on a single file. Let's call it what it is. There's also a weird thing happening where it seems to go faster only if it is the frontmost app. Minimize it or hide it while using other apps and the speed goes down. I don't know if this is true of all apps or yummy just hates me.

I stay with Forklift for the reason that it has FXP Copy. "FXP Copy lets you transfer data directly between FXP-enabled servers, without passing the data through your desktop machine." Otherwise Yummy looks good.

I don't get it. I'm in the process of finding a Transmit replacement after about a decade of use (can't deal with its unstable file downloads any more) and I've been evaluating all of the top contenders: ForkLift, ExpanDrive, Fetch (which I used many years ago, looks about the same) and Yummy FTP. The latter gets rave reviews here, and yet I'm not seeing much to rave about. I assume that it's very stable and provides solid transfer behavior, but ugh - the interface?? How are they making the claim that it has a "Beautiful Retina User Interface"? It is neither beautiful (looks like an OS X 10.2 app) nor Retina-savvy (all of the icons/UI elements are pixellated on my rMBP screen). On top of that, I'm finding the UI behavior to be surprisingly clunky. Sorry to rain on people's love parade here, but I'm stunned by how archaic this app is, I can't get onboard. I won't include an actual star review here because I haven't (couldn't) give it a decent workout, but I implore the developer to give this thing a major facelift. FWIW, ExpanDrive was comically slow for me, so while I wasn't completely blown away by ForkLift (much speedier, but the mounted disk behavior wasn't good, and there's no bookmark import), that's my probable replacement.

The best FTP client just got better. Its scheduling feature puts it a mile ahead of Transmit, the next best. For my money, the most important innovation is support for Notifications. But I am knocking off half a star because Yummy still lacks proper documentation. This is a complex piece of software and some of its features aren't as intuitive as the devoloper seems to think. A newbie might have trouble figuring some of its features out.

The new 1.9.3 version lost a useful functionality : to have on screen the dual finder AND to be able to see data transfer. Now it is OR I will take my timemachine to revert to the old version

Only took me about two years to realize, hey! No spring-loaded folders! Boy that makes moving files on the server a big pain. Dev says he's going to get to it.

Complete feature set, customizable, fast transfers, great support, one-click mirrors, and stable. Power user ftp client.

My new favourite FTP client. It's fast and easy to use. I got fed up with Cyberduck's inability to delete orphaned files on the server, and picked up YummyFTP on sale for $2 (it's normally $10 through the Mac App Store, if that works for you). YummyFTP's full synchronization capabilities made my day!

Excellent piece of software. Only problem I've had with this great app is the difficulty of drag 'n' drop when using dual pane view. When I select for example a couple of files in left pane (local directory) and try to 'move' my selection to the right pane, it often selects more or less files depending the vertical movements of the cursor.

I've never needed an FTP client until recently. Didn't know how to use one. Did a little research on MacUpdate and chose Yummy FTP. Pure joy! It was set up and running in minutes with just a few quick glances of the user guide. I use Yummy FTP primarily to forward security camera monitoring event jpegs to secure online storage in case someone breaks into the house and swipes my system (and video logs). The FTP Watcher function immediately forwards changes in my iCam Events folder to online storage securely via FTPES flawlessly. One word to the author, "Fantastic"! Easy to use awesome software. Thanks!

Best FTP client for mac i've ever try. Fastest than others:transmit,forklift,cyberduck (I've test it) My only complain is: The developer make it available from appstore with cheap price, but i just bought it 2 week before...no information if it will available via appstore.

Switched to this from Transmit. Really nice FTP app! Works well. One problem though: my default folder won't change when I try to it set up to Downloads-folder (it's Desktop-folder).

The best ftp client I've found. It has lots of useful features, including: - Lots of ways to view files - Synchronization - Drop files on subfolders to upload them there - Drag files from one host to another - Excellent support for remote editing (including useful help if I attempt to open the same file twice). It is also very stable and has amazing customer support. Worth every penny and then some. There are a few minor things I wish were different, including: * Each new connection window opens directly over the current connection window, making it needlessly hard to tell them apart (or even tell there are multiple connections open). * The UI for synchronization is a bit clumsy. * There is no menu of bookmarks in the "new connection" dialog box. The bookmarks menu is a fine way to get a new connection, but sometimes I start with cmd-N (old habit from Fetch) and then have to cancel out. I'd really like to be able to open a bookmark from the keyboard (e.g. cmd-N and then start typing).

Compared this with other FTP apps, both commercial and free apps. This was the stand out app of all of them. Reasons: - Dual pane - Clean interface - Multitude of configuration options - Stable, easy to use - Price (it was 64% off when I bought it) Other FTP software I compared with YummyFTP and why I didn't choose them: Cyberduck (single pane - I prefer dual pane) Transmit (too expensive, wouldn't connect to my sample FTP site) Forklift (didn't like the interface) CrossFTP (didn't like the interface, not as intuitive/easy to use) Filezilla (didn't like the interface, wouldn't connect to my sample FTP site) The only thing I would probably change on YummyFTP is to have the app just open like Filezilla did and not bring up a New Connection window.
