Free SFTP + FTP Client, Map Network Drive for SFTP & FTP
Do you need a free SFTP and FTP client for Windows? Check out DriveMaker, it’s a free SFTP and FTP client that maps a drive to SFTP and FTP sites. This works like a network drive with a real drive letter, say X:\
Once you have the drive letter mapped you can use it from many applications, such as Microsoft Office and the command prompt, and files can be added and edited as if they were local.
When a file is saved, it’s being uploaded in the background automatically. There is no need to go back and forth and upload and download with FileZilla or other FTP clients. Plus, because you can edit files in place, you won’t forget to upload them since it’s done automatically.
Are you using FTP for backups? We also have an easy to use and secure FTP server bundled with our backup software and apart from FTP backup, BackupChain can also serve as Hyper-V backup software and much more.
