Hi there,
I'm getting an ftp site, and need to know which is the best piece of software to get to make things easier (I'm no expert).
Do Fetch and Transmit do approx. the same things? Can one be recommended over the other?
Thanks for any advice,
Malcolm

I personally like Transmit. A lot.

Other opinions on the matter can be found here (http://forums.applenova.com/showthread.php?t=3062) and here (http://forums.applenova.com/showthread.php?t=4197).

Transmit if you are using OS X.

Fetch if you are using OS 9.

It took me some getting used to when I started using transmit, because I really liked fetch, but transmit was the better choice in the end, and I use it exclusively.

Not that you'll need much more convincing at this point, but Transmit all the way.

Transmit is awesome. Definitely worth it, even for a mere occasional FTP'er like me.

Not that it really needs anymore votes but Transmit is nice.

Interarchy is great. But I use Transmit more.

But I own and use all of these:
Cyberduck
Fugu
Interarchy
NetFinder v2.3.3 OSX
Transmit
Vicomsoft FTP Client

:D

Transmit.

Please look at the old thread links that 709 posted up there.

Transmit. I love it, I have never used another client since I started using transmit.
