FileZilla Server, along with FileZilla Client, is a complete free File-Transfer-Protocol (FTP) application that will solve all of your file transfer needs. Have you ever thought of transferring data between two different devices that are far away and not connected by anything except that they are both connected to the Internet? How about multiple devices?
Well, FileZilla Server saves the day for you. Just like a normal client and server relationship, the FileZilla Server creates your computer a server that can be accessed by any device (with the right credentials of course) using the FileZilla Client. All of that sounds as simple as it is.
If you wish to share photos, videos, any type of files, music, or any other form of data with your friends, your colleagues, or anyone you wish, then the FileZilla Server can help make your device a server on which anybody can download and save data from. The Client allows you to connect to a device that has FileZilla Server installed and set up upon it. Any file placed on the server can be downloaded using the Client.
You can also use FileZilla Server to back up your content since it can work as a simple server. Users can take advantage of the facility and access it anywhere on the go when the server is up and active.
Talking about security and accessibility, FileZilla Server can be accessed by any computer that has FileZilla Client installed on it. Security is also a major aspect of the Server as it offers you many configuration options such as a minimum TLS version of v1.2 and a TLS certificate as well.
You can check the logging options to ensure file integrity and see what changes were made to any files or which files were downloaded. Other options include Login Timeout, Activity Timeout, Ban IP Address automatically after n number of wrong attempts, and many more.
Summing it all up, if you are looking for a great way to transfer files between devices using the Internet or if you are looking for ways that you can access files on the go from your home PC or share files with your colleagues and friends, then the FileZilla Server and Client are a fantastic set of applications to help you.
