CompleteFTP is a proprietary FTP and SFTP server for Windows that supports FTP, FTPS, SFTP, SCP, HTTP and HTTPS.

History

CompleteFTP began as edtFTPD, which was released in 2004. It was a repackaged version of ProFTPD (Cygwin version) with a graphical front-end running on the .NET Framework.

In November 2007, the name was changed to CompleteFTP (version 0.5) and the back-end was replaced by a proprietary FTP/FTPS engine. The original edtFTPD administrator GUI was retained in this version. This version was also free.

CompleteFTP version 1.0 was released in October 2008 under a commercial license. It introduced a new GUI as well as an improved back-end. CompleteFTP version 2.0 was released in February 2009, with SFTP support. Subsequent releases have added support for SCP, HTTP and HTTPS.

CompleteFTP is now at version 23.1.0 - released in December 2023.
