It is now easier for all enterprises - large and small - to evaluate SFTPPlus MFT with the release of a trial version which includes full functionality of the software suite.

Customers seeking a trial have the choice of either the MFT Server, MFT Client or both for major operating systems on Windows and Linux.

SFTPPlus MFT is a software suite for managed file transfer (MFT) with Client and Server that may be licensed and used as standalone modules or together as a MFT solution.

Whether you need file transfer protocols support for FTPS, SFTP, HTTPS or WebDAV, we have you covered.

How do I obtain a trial version?

Email us at sales@proatria.com to start your evaluation version today.

Once you have your trial, make sure to view and bookmark our 5 minute quick guide.

How long does the trial version last?

Trial versions last for 30 days after a major release. For example, if version 3.xx.x was released on 01/01/2018 then the trial version will last until 01/31/2018.

What happens to my configuration data if I want to switch to the full version?

You can maintain your server configuration data simply by copying the configuration file over the configuration file in the full version.

As for SSH keys, SSL certificates and other items initialized by yourself or SFTPPlus, you can also use these providing that the locations remain the same as what is already in the configuration file during the evaluation period.

Further instructions to upgrade to the full version are found in our documentation.

Who do I contact for technical and other support?

Since we offer support as part of the evaluation package, you can email the Support team at support@proatria.com.

New Features

Defect Fixes

• An internal server error is no longer emitted for long uploads taking more than 15 minutes to complete over HTTP/HTTPS. [server-side][http][https] [#2533]
• Stopping the SFTPPlus during a transfer which is pending a reconnection, the stop procedure is no longer delayed until all reconnection retries are exhausted. [client-side] [#2656]
• The WebDAV location will detect changes into folders, when the letter cases in the configured path does not match the cases on the server. [client-side][http][https] [#3945-1]
• The WebDAV location can now get members and attributes for paths containing the + (plus) character, as well as detecting changes into folders with such names. [client-side][http][https] [#3945]
• When the destination of a transfer is changed, the Local Manager will not mark the transfer as requiring a restart. Unless the transfer is restarted, the files are transferred using the destination defined a start time. [client-side] [#4245]
• The event with ID 10079 was updated to show the reason of the failure. [ftp][ftps][server-side] [#4326]
