2016-08-01 - FileZilla phone support now available

We are proud to announce that starting today FileZilla phone support is available in English for users in the USA and Canada with more to come!

For years FileZilla users have expressed the desire for phone support to get assistance with setting up and configuring FileZilla. When we met Upclick - a Canadian company providing 24/7 remote technical support services to consumers and small businesses across a wide range of computing and communications devices and software - we eventually found a way to make this wish come true.

Upclick proven ability to deliver seamless technical support and our understanding of all possible issues that new users might stumble on when starting to use FileZilla sound like a perfect match to deliver a professional phone support service.

Upclick technicians can help you with general troubleshooting, configuration and the most advanced FileZilla features.

Don't worry if we aren't in your country yet - we're working hard to bring phone support to more countries and in more languages - we'll do our best to scale out soon.

2015-11-02 - Announcing libfilezilla

Some of the core functionality from FileZilla has been moved into libfilezilla, a new cross-platform C++ library. Check out https://lib.filezilla-project.org/ for details.

2014-05-17 - FTP over TLS support added to https://ftptest.net/

The online FTP server tester https://ftptest.net/ has been updated with FTP over TLS support. Both the modern explicit TLS negotiation as well as the legacy implicit negotiation can be tested.

The server tester can be used by server administrators and users to verify that their server has been setup correctly and in full accordance with the FTP specifications. The test tool has been specifically designed to point out even the smallest of problems, to ensure that servers passing the test are compatible with as many clients as possible.
