Anyone that frequently has to deal will file transfers, especially at work probably know that FTP clients are a standard way to transfer files between computers, regardless of the operating system on each computer (Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, etc.).

Most commonly, they are also used to transfer files between a computer and a server.

sFTP Client ( a play on safe FTP) is an improved version of such programs, as the entire transfer process is protected via a set of encryption protocols, making everything you do much less vulnerable to interception.

If you are unsure whether to perform your work solely using sFTP Client, then you'll be glad to know it can be used in conjunction with other FTP clients, since it supports all FTP and SFTP connections.

This app allows you to connect both to servers and local networks, thanks to it being a native package-based app and not a web-based app.

Those of you who haven't used FTP clients before probably don't know what exact credentials need to be filled in for the client to work. You need to enter the hostname of the server you want to transfer files from or to, and the username and password for your account on that server.

Terminating connections between you and a server can be easily achieved by closing the app from the red cross icon in the top corner.

Deleting files (even multiple ones at a time) can be done by selecting them and then pressing the "Delete." Renaming can be done using the typical "F2" key, just as you would do outside of the app as well.

If you are currently looking for a new FTP client, regardless of the reasons, then you should definitely give sFTP Client a shot, since the added protection provided by the encryption protocols will ensure all of your transfers are safe.
