Transmit 5

A Mac file-transfer client for servers and cloud storage, with dual-pane browsing and synchronization.

Our take

Useful for people managing several remote storage destinations.

SFTP, WebDAV, S3 and cloud connections sit alongside batch rename, keys and sync rules.

Keep in mind: Synchronization can overwrite or remove files depending on rules. Service credentials and provider compatibility remain your responsibility; website and App Store licenses differ.

What you can do

  • Server and cloud file management
  • Local/local and remote sync rules
  • Batch rename, key management and saved sites

Good for

  • Developers or administrators who want a graphical transfer workflow.

Consider alternatives for

  • People seeking cloud storage included in the app price or a deployment approval system.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: macOS 13.0.
  • Synchronization can overwrite or remove files depending on rules. Service credentials and provider compatibility remain your responsibility; website and App Store licenses differ.

Privacy & permissions

Remote credentials and files are sensitive. Prefer encrypted protocols and review optional Panic Sync; provider accounts have their own data practices.
