Cyberduck 3.0

I am a member of the media attempting to use cyberduck to download fron NewsMarkets FTP server. No matter what the file size (uncompressed video can be pretty large) the download is stopping around 40MB (give or take) and then says the file is complete even though I can see next to my green icon: 41.8MB of 618.8MB. What is going on!?

I'd love to recommend Cyberduck. I can't.

Firstly, I find that it corrupts files too often. I transfered a large gallery site and more than half the images were corrupted.

Secondly, I'd love to recommend its "arrowheaded" navigation because it is neater than Fetch's rigid single window but I find it is far too easy to move files about by accident even lose directories in this way.

That aspect needs to be tunable. Yup, a bit slow too.

MS Sharepoint webdav not worked... (cant connect - bad request)

I always have a problem with Cyberduck not remembering past FTP addresses. It rememebers the previous one but no others.

Does anyone else experience this ?

I happened to update to Cyberduck 3 last night. The connections are usually stellar, but it choked and died on me twice. Its virtually unusable. And its been getting progressively worse with each update for about a year now.

I will be investigating alternatives. Transmit was always good to use.

Scott, you should never start a review off by saying "if only because the icon is so darned cute" and expect to be taken seriously. Just a tip.

I am in need of using an app like this. Are there any pros or cons to Cyberduck or Transmit?

I definitely love the new UI and removal of the side drawer. All you have to do is switch on the bookmarks-icon to access either connections or connected ftp root, pretty obvious.

But i do wish it was faster with starting an upload and download. Why does it take so long in order to proceed a down or upload? (i'm not talking about the speed itself once it actually is uploading or downloading. That is dependant on your own internet connection)

Forklift the best. I never had an FTP which was as nice as this one. I used XP a long time and tried a lot of ftp-apps and on OSX a lot of them sucks... slow and not really suitable to handel drag and drop and so on...and forklift is the only one which got this nice toolbar on the left side... grown up!

Transmit 4EVA!

...okay, I feel a little fanboyish right now.
