## Reviews

### "Transfer data with WinSCP" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *15 March 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very niche interface, users can easily use it without any help. Credentials can be saved for the future use. Data can be accessed over sFTP securely.
> 
> **Cons**: Consistent disconnection, heavy files take time to transfer ever over a good internet connection. Connection lose will result in rework of copying and pasting.
> 
> Overall a good experience with WinSCP. It is one of the most widely used desktop application by IT industry. I have been using it for more than 10 years now. Simple and easy interface with secure file transfer. Only issue is being an old application, it still has inconsistencies such as connection lose and rework. But overall a great tool for daily file transfer from remote machines to local machines.

### "WinSCP is very easy to use and very handy\!" — 4.0/5

> **Rick** | *10 June 2024* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like all the tools that incorporated in this software. I don't have to have other software running to complete my tasks.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing\! I haven't had any issues or wished for anything else in this software at this point.
> 
> I've used this software for a couple of years. I haven't used all it's features, but the ones I have used, work very well. Using this for specific tasks, I don't need to run other software to get things done.

### "An OK SFTP client for Windows" — 4.0/5

> **Aivar** | *8 September 2021* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Supports all of the important protocols&#10;Shows two panels with files (usually, remote and local), you can drag and drop to upload
> 
> **Cons**: Connection is less stable than, let's say, Cyberduck. Uploading or downloading large files, you'll often come back to it errored out&#10;The interface is clunky, doesn't scale well on high res screens
> 
> WinSCP was my choice of an SFTP client until I switched to Mac and found out about Cyberduck. It is better in every respect (at least the Mac version is).

### "Secure file transfers with a user friendly interface" — 5.0/5

> **Julia** | *10 November 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: WinSCP is an open source software making it freely available to users. This affordability factor coupled with it's robust features is attractive with organisations with budget considerations. The integration with PuTTY a widely used terminal emulator adds an extra layer of versatility. Users can seamlessly switch between file transfers and terminal operations within the same application.
> 
> **Cons**: This is a windows only platform, thus users on other operating systems may need to explore alternative tools.  Some of the more advanced features might be complex for  users unfamiliar with advanced file transfer protocols or scripting.
> 
> The dual pane interface is efficient, however this overall design is less modern than compared to other file transfer applications. A more contemporary look could enhance the user experience. Nevertheless, this presents an extremely useful, secure and user-friendly file transfer platform that is used regularly in my job role. There are powerful automation capabilities allowing users to script and schedule transfers.

### "Winscp - Access your files remotely over sFTP" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *15 March 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 1. Secure and easy to use.&#10;2. Connect and access virtual machines remotely.&#10;3. Easily transfer data to local machines.&#10;4. Save credentials
> 
> **Cons**: 1. File transfer can take some time over slow internet connection and slow servers.&#10;2. Log refreshing also sometimes takes a lot of time for large files.&#10;3. Frequent connection lose.
> 
> Winscp is an old software which is still being widely used to access remote servers and machines to transfer files over a secured protocol. Its easy to use and need no training. Heavy files some times take time to copy on local machines or huge log files, takes time to refresh but this con comes with a lot of pros of this application.
