I can't quit you Ipswitch! I started using Ipswitch in 2004 while working as a webmaster and found the product to be very reliable with features to control large user groups and track files. Retirement started 5 years ago and recently, after being a bit bored, took on a volunteer webmaster position. My first choice, over all the free ftp apps, was and still is Ipswitch. Even though I am on a limited income, the money spent is well worth it. Ipswitch is a reliable, stable application that is easy to use and hard to forget.

As I understand it As I understand it, if I reset my computer operating system I no longer have Ipswitch WS_FTP Pro 12. What a sham. $49.95 for a one-time install. I will never buy this product again. And I will never advise anyone else to buy it. $49.95 for 1 activation. What a rip off. Keith Rose

The FTP connects but only reads all and… The FTP connects but only reads all and every file on hmspress.ca as having 0 content, I cannot delete, upload or download any files to update the website. It used to work years ago but now on a secnd and third try it doesnot even accept my credentials or login information. Program is faulty and not useful to me anymore. Why does it not work.

OK product, bad licensing policy I have used WSFTP pro for many years -- practically daily. The product itself is not bad, but they have found that they can't really add much to it, so they do things like restricting your license to only one machine. It's kind of a ripoff given that there are other (free) products available. I have not had great interactions with their support staff either. If you are a first-time buyer: just say no. Many of us are kind of locked in because the product has stored login information in a way that is not easily exportable to other programs. I am in the process of migrating to another system so I can get free of the tyranny.

Does not display properly on 4k Windows 10 The app on windows does not display properly in 4k which is the only real choice for my laptop where I need to run it. I have been a loyal customer for over 20 years and now I'm being told that there is no fix for the problem and no estimated time for a fix to go into place. I feel really let down. Now, I hear that IpSwitch has been bought out and I have not received a response what they are going to do about my problem.
