Instead of FileZilla Client

FileZilla Client alternatives

FileZilla Client provides free file transfers over FTP, FTPS and SFTP on Linux, macOS and Windows. The project offers installation instructions for those systems, tutorials, connection and transfer troubleshooting, and a community forum. It also provides a separate Pro product supporting cloud services such as S3, Google Drive and OneDrive, so cloud access may not require switching clients.

A different client may fit better if you need protocols or storage services beyond FileZilla Client’s three protocols, or want scheduling, automation, synchronization, command-line tools or background transfers. The free client has no paid price or billing schedule stated, and its platforms are Linux, macOS and Windows. Compare those platform and protocol needs with each alternative’s workflow and integrations. For cloud access in particular, weigh whether a third-party client’s supported services suit your setup better than FileZilla Pro.
