Looking for Third Party Upload / Download Tool

Posted August 16, 2007 under Miscellaneous

I'm looking for a web-based upload/download tool if anyone has any recommendations.

Essentially I need someone I can easily integrate into a client's website so that their site visitors can upload large files and then also download those files. Typical FTP is too cumbersome and confuses some of this client's visitors, so I'm looking for something simpler.





Whether the files are stored on the third-party's servers or the client's servers doesn't matter in this case, nor does it matter whether the files are protected by any sort of security.

There are a couple of solutions that I would recommend:

1) Senduit (http://senduit.com/)
A simple way to share files, but since it is hosted, you couldn't customize it for the client. But it's free.

2) DropSend (http://www.dropsend.com/)
Hosted, customizable, allows files up to 1GB, desktop or web files also expire. Free and paid plans.

3) SWFUpload (http://swfupload.mammon.se/)
Customizable, allows multiple files to be queued, free. Uses your own server for storage. Would require a little programming.
