Editor's review
This software makes SFTP based communications with a server as simple and easy as communicating with a local USB drive.
ExpanDrive is a simple SFTP client for Windows. It allows access to your SSH server as simply as with a USB hard drive connected directly to your PC. Then working with files on the remote server becomes very easy, you simply select, open, edit these files as if they were locally available. Using applications like the Word or Excel is easy too. It enhances all existing applications by providing secure drive to access to Linux & Unix directly over SSH. You do not need to do any specific settings or configurations. The whole thing just works. Expandrive appears as another drive in the Windows browser list and the overall behavior is exactly as if this was another drive on your machine. Any application on the machine working on these remote files also works seamlessly.
The connection remains on, the software tool automatically, transparently, takes care of it even when you may move to another access point in the WiFi network or your machine wakes up from slumber. The interface is very simple. You just log in to the remote site and then treat the whole thing as just another drive.If you have a lot of files on a remote server, maintenance of a large website or large number of sites, this is one very convenient tool for managing maintenance hassle free. Go ahead and try it out, if you have similar problems in your business!
