FTP Jet is a relatively unknown but very powerful FTP client. Now on its 2.0 version, the application has added powerful features to its already impressive abilities. It can even rival some commercial FTP applications since it has adapted to the demands of its users and even offered some more.

The basics of FTP Jet are still there. Users can still enjoy easy download and upload of files in their preferred server. The client is also smart in interacting with the desktop. If you have a powerful PC, you can easily use the FTP client with virtually no lag if you’re using the application for simple uploads and downloads.

The application can easily download or upload files to the server without dominating your computer system. That means you’ll be able to use your computer for other purposes even though you’re actively using FTP Jet. Because the application can work in the background, access of folders within the server is very easy. Additional functions were even added such as folder comparison. This feature will help users easily sync their folders with the server.

The most impressive feature of FTP Jet is its ability to communicate with other servers. Transferring data from one server to another used to be very slow because some FTP clients do not fully support this function. This feature is now optimized in FTP Jet which should be useful for web developers who maintains multiple websites. All these features can be enjoyed in FTP Jet along with a very interesting interface that only eases the application’s operation.
