FTP software makes transferring large electronic files easy and fast, without timing out before their upload or download is complete.

An FTP publishing service provides remote, secure servers that hold and make available files you created to publish and update your website, share photos and movies, or manage client access to large report files, track when the clients upload or download them, and provide secure backup for your data.

Benefits
