Nowadays, the FTP protocol is the most used way of transferring and sharing files and folders over the Internet. The reason why FTP has become so popular is due to the fact that it has several advantages over other methods of sharing files, it's reliable, fast, easy to use and also accessible. But the simpleness of use is given by FTP software. The Windows operating system includes a command line FTP client, which is not accessible and difficult to use by most computer users. A very good alternative to this is the AnyConnect application.

This simple Windows program gives you access to any FTP site using a very simple and intuitive interface. But that's not all that AnyConnect can do, as it can also give you access to other online services, like SSH, Telnet Terminal and so on. Still, these services should be used by more advanced computer users. Installing AnyConnect is not difficult, nor is using the application.

After launching the program, the user will need to right click on the interface and add his preferred connection type. For example, when selecting the FTP server, the user just needs to enter the FTP server, username, password and port and the rest will be taken care of by the application.

When connecting to a FTP server, the user will be able to perform usual file and folder operations, like copy, move, delete and so on. Adding another type of protocol into the program's interface is not a difficult task, but attention should be payed when configuring the parameters for these type of protocols. That's because there are a lot of settings and options that should be configured in order for the protocol to function correctly.

A log windows can be displayed at any time, stating all the actions performed by the applications and allowing the user to spot any possible errors.

Pros

It allows you to connect to various protocols, like FTP, SSH, TELNET and so on, using a simple and intuitive interface. Besides that, the user can configure a lot of settings for each protocol type. Moreover, a log window can be displayed at any moment.

Cons

Fully using the program requires some knowledge regarding networks and servers. AnyConnect allows you to easily connect to any FTP server and other wide-spread protocols, using an intuitive interface.
