Quickly transfer files across the Internet
SmartFTP is a file transfer protocol that lets you transfer files from your computer to a location on the internet.
SmartFPT is a free FTP client for Windows that houses all of the features expected of a complete FTP client. SmartFTP has a very intuitive and easty-to-use interface as well, making it a superb choice for beginning and more experience users alike.
Along with the classic features like passive mode transfers, uploading and downloading files, a large choice of FPT connections and creation of favorites that are included in most FTP clients, SmartFTP comes included with a unique batch of attributes.
You can connect to multiple FTP connections without time delays or errors with SmartFTP, for example. By dragging and dropping, you can transfer files from folder to folder as well. A few other notable features are passive mode and site to site transfers. SmartFTP's most entertaining novelty is probably the transfers menu though. This is a useful tool that allows you to create queues of transfers, either global or in a specific session. You can easily monitor the speed of your transfers and set specific tasks to the queue once all files have been transferred. SmartFTP’s menus can also be customized in a flash, letting you choose what information you want to see.
While SmartFTP does have a great, useable interface, some beginners might get a bit confused about how to use some aspects of the program, particularly when it comes to advanced features.
Although beginners might need some time to get accustomed to it, Smart FTP is a fantastic, flexible file transfer protocol tool.

User reviews about SmartFTP

Stay away from those scammers. I payed 400$ for Enterprise edition + 500$ for the logger option. I had a proper support for bugs-bugs-bugs and features that an Enterprise version should have for a couple of months, then they just stoped answering. There is no manual and no website instructions for pretty much anything more than an average user could find by himself. For more advanced topics you should pay 250$ in order them to demonstrate to you anything. I asked a simple thing "I set email notifications for file downloads/uploads, I want to be informed if a file fails to transfer to/from my server, I cannot find how to do it in your documentation and I cannot figure out how to do it by myself" (20 yrs of experience in IT) and their answer was "It can be done! Please pay us 250$ for a technician in order to connect to your server and demonstrate the procedure". That should show to you the type of company you are dealing with. More

Like other people have mentioned, they disabled your ability to reinstall this software. I received a notification about a new version, and I upgraded. Then I was told I did not have a license for the new version, so I uninstalled it and tried to reinstall my old version. Nope. Product Version Not Supported. It was working fine a few minutes ago! Try and contact support? no response. Try and go to forums? Sorry you don't have a valid license.I have supported them for years, having bought several paid versions. Give your money to someone who deserves it, not these scammers. More

Scammy. You can't reinstall their software ( even on same machine ) and no support response whatsoever. Need to look at forum? You can't, it's empty. Contact support? sorry no current license, pay us $150. More

SmartFTP is a subscription service. . . PERIOD! .
SmartFTP is a subscription service. . . PERIOD! Don't be conned into thinking you have a perpetual license. Don't ever trust a company that will not provide a phone and address on there website. They only do that so they can better ignore you. SmartFTP claims to sell you a perpetual license, but as soon as your maintenance plan expires and a new version comes out, your license will stop working and the only response you get will be--download the latest version. The catch is, the latest version will not run without a new maintenance plan. More
