FavoriteFTP

FavoriteFTP is a handy file transfer tool that helps you sync files and folders between your Mac and an FTP server. It’s all about creating user-defined profiles, which lets you choose how you want to sync: one-way or two-way.

Setting Up FavoriteFTP

To get started with FavoriteFTP, you first need to set up some sync profiles. This means picking your sync method, entering the server credentials, and selecting both the local and remote servers.

Syncing Made Easy

With FavoriteFTP, you can easily upload new and updated files to the FTP server or download them from the server. Plus, it keeps everything in sync between your local folder and the remote one. If you want, you can even delete files that aren’t on either side.

Manual Syncing Process

The only catch? You’ll have to start the syncing process yourself because there’s no scheduling feature built into the app right now. So don’t forget to trigger it manually!

Preview Functionality Issues

You might be excited about the preview feature that lets you compare folders before transferring files. But during our tests, it crashed every single time we tried to use it.

Advanced Connection Settings

The advanced settings in FavoriteFTP are pretty cool too! You can specify how many concurrent connections to use or decide what happens if there’s a conflict between two files.

Add Custom Filters & Notifications

You also have options for inclusion or exclusion filters, enabling fast sync features, and even setting up email notifications when your syncing is done!

Final Thoughts on FavoriteFTP

In summary, FavoriteFTP gives you solid one-way or two-way syncing options with minimal fuss after setup. However, keep in mind that some features like the Preview tool might not work as expected. Plus, there seems to be a scheduler mentioned on their website that isn’t available in the app at this time.
