Check out this detailed review of WS_FTP Server 7.5 by Jason Moran on ServerWatch.com.
“When you need to exchange sensitive files with customers or business partners, simply tacking them onto e-mails as attachments isn’t an option — at least not if you’re governed by any of the alphabet soup of data privacy regulations. Rather, you need a secure file transfer product, such as Ipswitch’s WS_FTP Server 7.5.”
An interesting blog post popped up in March (seems like ages ago, but only a few short months) by Jonathan Lampe, VP of Product Management at Ipswitch. He poses a relevant question regarding file transfer — “Why is FTP still prominently used to move files in the business field — why not use SOAP (simple object access protocol) or a transaction-friendly process?” Lampe explains his opinion on the subject by using his previous experience with customers in the banking industry.
“But why bother moving FILES around when we could all be doing little bitty TRANSACTIONS to each other using SOAP or other transactional-friendly schemes? The answer to that question didn’t come to me until I’d spent several years in the field, traveling between banks, data centers and large corporations in support of distributed, enterprise-class file transfers.”

Android: If you’d like easy wireless access to files on your Android phone SwiFTP is a simple open-source application that turns your phone into an FTP server.
Accessing the file directory of your phone without tethering it directly to your computer is a great convenience. SwiFTP turns your Android phone into an FTP server which is accessible via WiFi or through their proxy server for remote access—currently you can only use their proxy server, hopefully future versions will allow you to set your own.
