Anyclient : Web-based FTP Client

AnyClient is the first and only web-based FTP client. That’s right, an online service aimed to provide users with a simple and easy file transfer client that works on any browser and operating system, and requires no installation. Similar to desktop FTP cleints, AnyClient comes with a profile manager that lets you store site profiles locally. This way the next time you load AnyClient you can connect to any saved site without filling login and server details all over.

Disclaimer: Anyclient is a web-based FTP client, thus there is a possibility that your account/login details may be viewed by third party individuals. Use it at your own risk.

>first and only web-based FTP client

It is hardly the first, there are many that came before:
net2ftp
SurFTP
phpWebFTP
MyWebFTP
webftp
F->IT

I could go on and on, literally

and anyway, you have got to be pretty dumb to be giving out ftp login credentials to any old site, the only chance i would give it if stays around a bit longer and gets a good reputation

Thanks for bringing it up, I had no idea there were so many web-based FTP clients out there. As about giving out details, I totally agree you can’t rely really on them unless they establish themselves as a reliable service.
