    What Do You Use? FTP or File Manager?

    I want to know what people like most and think its easy to use.

    I like to use File Manager but would like to start using FTP any heads up or anything? Should I stay with File Manager?

    It's up to you. I'm more familiar with FTP. I think you better stick with the one you are used to.

    I found file manager much easier to use. Have been using it since last 3 years.

    It's only about your familiarity. I use FTP (Filezilla).

    I believe each end user chose that solution for FTP he currently more familiar or comfortable with.

    They're different concepts, so I don't think a comparison is really adequate. There are many arguments each way. FTP is simpler to use, but it lacks several features of the file manager.

    If I had to choose one, I suppose I prefer FTP because I'm using it on a daily basis. I use file manager more rarely.

    I usually just use file manager, but I've also used ftp in the past.

    I've been using FTP (Filezilla). Quickconnection, drag and drop, fast navigation. Everything looks very clean and easy to understand. Left side is your computer, right side is server. I would say its the most noob friendly.
