Free sftp client software for windows

BitKinex FTP Client 3.1.1 is a useful FTP client which support for the SSL/SSH, multipart and multithreaded transfers, remote edit or FXP.

It integrates the functionality of an innovative FTP client, SFTP client and WebDAV client for Windows. In addition to features found in other popular FTP programs , BitKinex introduces several unique approaches and solutions.

With just one click you can minimize the space occupied by the program to one small window showing the status of running requests, and with just a few clicks you can see all the details again. In contrast to other FTP clients BitKinex uses multiple connections not only for file transfers but for browsing remote directories as well.

You don`t need to wait when you make a mistake and accidentally click on a wrong folder. BitKinex allows you to click on the right one immediately and instantly starts to retrieve the content of the directory you want to see using another connection. The unique technology of indirect server-to-server transfers allows you to transfer files between servers running different transfer protocols (FTP=>WebDAV, WebDAV=>SFTP, SFTP=>FTP, etc.).
