Self-hosted FTP vs managed cloud FTP/SFTP hosting

Running your own FTP server can be time-consuming and risky — managing certificates, configuring firewalls, handling user permissions, and keeping security patches up-to-date. ftpGrid’s Managed FTP Hosting takes care of all of that for you, so you can focus on your work instead of server admin. Whether you need FTP, FTPS, or SFTP, ftpGrid delivers enterprise-grade security and zero-maintenance hosting, all in the cloud.

Use cases for managed FTP/SFTP hosting:

• Agencies exchanging files with clients

• Enterprises with strict compliance requirements

• Software vendors needing a secure delivery channel

• Teams that want FTP/SFTP without the complexity of self-hosting

• Private and professional surveillance camera storage

• FTP/SFTP based API for cloud storage without privacy or GDPR concerns
