gFTP como alternativa Linux a Bullet Proof FTP (BPFTP)
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
gFTP is a solid replacement for Bullet Proof FTP (BPFTP) for Linux users who need basic to intermediate FTP, FTPS, and SFTP functionality. It supports drag-and-drop, transfer queuing, multithreaded transfers, and directory synchronization. While it lacks a formal transfer pause/resume in SFTP mode and has a simpler interface, it covers core use cases well. Users migrating from Windows should be aware of fewer advanced automation features and a less polished UI, but for straightforward file transfers with GUI convenience, gFTP works reliably.

Abrir tus archivos de Bullet Proof FTP (BPFTP)
gFTP does not import BPFTP configuration files directly. There is no known tool to convert BPFTP's site or login data into gFTP's format. Users must manually recreate saved connections in gFTP's bookmark manager. If BPFTP exports connection details in plain text or XML, those can be used as a reference, but no automated migration path exists.
