Testimonials

I just downloaded your evaluation of the .NET FTP toolkit. It's very well made, and after looking at the sample (WinFormClient) I got really impressed with the attention to details you put in that code. It's written with the desire to show your customers how a well crafted program should be composed, and I literally enjoyed reading it.

Writing an FTP component is not a simple exercise.

So, the "simple" solution is to buy an FTP component.

I bought Rebex FTP for .NET. It is wonderfully simple to use. Download the trial version and see if it provides the functionality you need.

I just want to say a big thank you! It’s not often you come across a component as good as this. It took me 10 minutes to plug it into our C# application and voila, passive FTP connections, excellent communication and error codes / messages when things don’t connect properly via our VPN.

Well done on an excellent product. I’m a software developer of some 18 years and I’m quite sceptical of 3rd party components, however, this FTP library is excellent. Can’t fault it.

I can Highly Recommend it.

The Rebex component was good. I was able to produce the required functionality in 7 lines of code.

Thanks!!!

Intuitive classes, good documentation/samples, excellent support

Purchased Secure Ftp product from another vendor (who also sells Ftp server software) without testing out trial version. What a mistake! After no response to urgent request for support via email for several days, I decided to try Rebex trial version in the application I'd been working on. Rebex ftps classes worked without any problems, uploading/downloading secure and unsecure. Also used directory listing functionality without problems.

Have purchased their product and can't say enough about them. When was the last time you sent a request for support and had a reply within the hour. Their documentation is especially useful for those unfamiliar with all the low level details of ftp/ftps. They inform you which commands may not be supported by all ftp servers and which methods you should use.

Purchased this product because the first product I'd bought could not connect using explicit TLS. Downloaded Rebex secure ftp trial version and within minutes made secure connection. Having been disappointed once, I decided to use the trial version in my ftp application which used both secure and unsecure transfers. Product worked without a hitch. The classes are very intuitive and easy to use. The documentation is quite good, especially for anyone not familiar with all the details of ftp/ftps.

Rebex, to their credit, will warn you if a particular ftp command is not supported by all ftp servers or the response may differ from one server to another. They provide adequate samples and believe or not, they responded to my request about active mode port ranges within hours after being sent. I can't say enough about Rebex.

I wanted to take a moment to tell you all what a fine job you have done with your Secure FTP .NET product.

I have been working on developing a custom application (VB.Net service in Visual Studio 2005) which required a Secure FTP client component. I have been through 4 different .NET and COM add-ins that did not work through all phases of my development.

• ComponentA would work when I had the application set up as a standard program but when I incorporated their COM object into my service it did not work. I imagine it was a permissions issue but did not investigate further.
• VendorB's product was straightforward to program and worked wonderfully in my test environment as an application and a service. However, as soon as I put it in production behind a Sonicwall firewall it would not work. While it would connect to the FTP server the program would lock up whenever I tried to get a directory listing on the server. Their support group was meager.
• VendorC’s product didn’t make it out of my development environment. It would fail when I tried to get a directory listing from the server.
• My first look at VendorD’ product gave me the impression it was cumbersome so I did not bother testing it out.

I fought with these other products for almost a week. Once I found your product I went from download to testing my finished service in my production environment in less than 2 hours. Your samples were straightforward and I did not run into any quirks or issues during my development process.

Excellent Job!
