gFTP als Linux-Alternative zu SmartFTP

Aktualisiert am

Unser Fazit

gFTP can replace SmartFTP for users who need a free, open‑source FTP/SFTP client with a graphical interface and basic cloud support. It handles FTP, FTPS, SFTP, multithreaded transfers, and offers a drag‑and‑drop UI, bookmarks, and file comparison. It lacks native WebDAV and major cloud storage integrations that SmartFTP provides, and its queueing and batch scripting features are more limited. It is best suited for Linux users who already use the GNOME desktop and prefer a lightweight, GPL‑licensed tool.
