The SFTP Site You Came Here For

Files.com runs a fully-managed SFTP service with a modern web file manager bolted to the same backend. Power users connect their existing SFTP clients to a subdomain we provision; non-technical teammates and partners use the web UI. Same files, same permissions, same audit log — different interfaces.

  • Dedicated SFTP, FTPS, and FTP endpoints on your own subdomain
  • Modern web file manager — drag-and-drop, search, previews, share links
  • Every modern SFTP client supported (FileZilla, WinSCP, Cyberduck, Transmit)
  • SSH-key authentication, IP allowlisting, granular per-user permissions
  • Real-time transfer logging with full audit trail for SOC 2 / HIPAA evidence
  • 99.9% uptime, AES-256 encryption, modern cipher suites by default

One site, two ways in. Engineers script against the SFTP endpoint; account managers open the same folder in the browser. No second product, no second login, no syncing required.

Our FTP and SFTP protocols now run consistently without manual intervention. Fewer and fewer issues of files not going where they're supposed to.

  • There was no SFTP server before, so we constantly relied on vendor sites for transfers. Now we have options and integration capabilities — what used to be a difficult conversation is a seamless routine.

Common Questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Reach out — every support request lands with an engineer.

An SFTP server is a process listening on port 22 — anything that speaks the protocol can connect. An SFTP site adds the rest of what a real team needs around that endpoint: a web file manager for non-technical users, per-user permissions, audit logging, share links, SSO, branded subdomains. Files.com gives you both, on the same backend, with one set of permissions.

Yes. The web file manager at your subdomain (e.g. yourcompany.files.com) is a full drag-and-drop interface — upload, download, share, search, preview office files, generate one-time download links. Same files and permissions as the SFTP endpoint, no client install required. Teams typically connect partners via SFTP and let internal users work from the browser.

Yes. Files.com publishes native iOS and Android apps as well, both of which connect to the same SFTP site with the same credentials and permissions.
