AbleFtp overview
AbleFtp is designed with automation in mind, so you do not have to spend time interactively transferring files.
Features
- Simple User Interface helps you transfer files interactively, but the Goal is to get you to create advanced ftp tasks that can be scheduled automatically or run manually.
- Automate FTP to/from an intranet or Internet server. Schedule ftp of files between your PC and the server and automatically rename the files based on current month, day or time if needed. Ftp supports wildcards (*). Transfer multiple files at once. Supports subdirectory transfers.
- Scheduler software is very easy to use, yet has very powerful scheduling, tasking and automation capabilities.
- Email Notification of task failure based on task exit code.
- Remote FTP directory monitor can detect directory change and trigger ftp , zip, copy, delete tasks. Can also detect file size, total files, file modification dates and trigger other tasks if required.
- Local directory monitor works similar to the Remote Ftp directory monitor.
- Zip files and directories using wildcards on schedule. Can append date/time to filename for archive purposes.
- Copy files and directories using wildcards on schedule. Can append date/time to filename for archive purposes.
- Delete files on schedule based on wildcards.
What’s new in version 11.09
Version 11.09:
- Cleaned up various errors and extra logging based on users support.zip
- FTP commons browser bugfix introduced in 11.08. In some situations, output was only sent to output log. No output was seen in FTP commons browser when connection error occurs.
- Bug fix: SFTPMonitor and SFTPMonitor-j 'Task to Run' field did not support and or | options to run multiple tasks simultaneously or in sequence.
- Copy task - Atomic move option added to Copy Files task. Move is done Atomically, so any process working on the folder will only see the full file, i.e. no partial file available if processed during Move.

Version: 8.38
Too 'windows' like. Not very OS X'ish.
I recommend looking at Cyberduck. Way cooler to work with.

Version: 8.0.1
the thing I like best about ableftp is the fact that it is impossible for me to even install it which in turn saves me a lot of time that I would have wasted evaluating it...

Version: 7.42
I much prefer Captain FTP. It's better designed, is rock solid, has more useful features and it's cheaper.

Version: 7.36
The price tag for a single license is $69, that is fairly steep over excellent fully native apps like Yummy or Fetch.

OS X screenshot has been added on their site!
Although, it doesn't look much better than the Windows version... :(
