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

Do not buy this if you want to know if your stuff is working There is a bug that's been affecting us for quite a while, whereby we get a flurry of 'false' down messages at seemingly random times. We've been talking with support and it's something that is known about but there is no fix yet. We're a small, rural hospital with limited staff, and the alarm fatigue is frankly getting to be DANGEROUS. It's really sad, since we've been running whatsup for several years now, with no real issues. But somehow they can't figure out how to fix this, and it's definitely a significant problem. Will be purchasing a different solution at next possible opportunity.

Complete scam I purchased their software online and never received my serial number. Then sumbitted my information on their sales and support forms and heard nothing back. Then called the number and was on hold for 26 minutes before they just said "our offices are now closed" then got kicked back to the main menu.

Great product with many useful… Great product with many useful features. Service support is also exceled and very proactive in their investigation. I'm sure that we keep using their great product range in many years to come.

Purchasing process is bad Purchasing process is bad. Paying is easy, but information on retreiving the download for this product is not very clear. You must register to the community, whereupon you are supposed to find your purchased products on your Products page. Despite the message stating "Products for new contacts and online orders can take up to 1 hour to show under My Products" my purchased product has not shown up after waiting several hours. So on the whole, not very satisfying at all. In this digital age you could expect a smoother transaction.
