Why I happily paid for the Transmit MacOS app - and it's not just the 16x faster file transfer speed
The author explains why they paid $45 for Transmit, a MacOS app that offers fast and reliable file transfers, a user-friendly interface, and robust features.

["As someone who frequently uploads and downloads files from multiple services and servers, I've found a go-to tool that makes the process seamless: Transmit. This paid app, available for a one-time fee of $45 (with a 7-day free trial), offers a range of features that make it well worth the investment.", 'Transmit stands out from other file transfer apps with its well-designed, easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) and its ability to work with a wide range of services, including Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Box, DeamObjects, Dropbox, Google Drive, Azure, OneDrive, OpenStack, RackSpace, and any server that accepts FTP, SFTP, or WebDAV protocols. The only caveat is that Google Drive support will soon be phased out, but existing connections should continue to work.', "One of the key benefits of Transmit is its speed.
I've experienced transfer speeds up to 16x faster than other apps, particularly when sending larger files to services like Amazon S3. In one test, I synced my Documents folder to an SFTP server on my home network, transferring over 4,000 files (including larger film clips), and Transmit completed the process much faster than other apps like FileZilla.", 'Transmit also offers a range of features that make it user-friendly and convenient. The app supports drag-and-drop of files to and from servers, and its Sync option allows for easy backups by keeping the source and destination folders in sync.
Additionally, users can create favorites for quick access to frequently used servers, and the tabbed interface allows for multiple connections to be open simultaneously.', "While I do wish that Transmit had received the Liquid Glass treatment to match the rest of MacOS's aesthetic, this is a minor complaint. Overall, Transmit's robust features, speed, and user-friendly interface make it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking for a reliable file transfer app. If you're willing to pay the $45 one-time fee, you can't go wrong with Transmit.", 'You can install Transmit from either the Apple App Store or by downloading the installer directly from the official Transmit website .
If you opt to install from the download, all you have to do is double-click on the downloaded file, and the installation will begin. The 7-day trial begins as soon as you open the app.']
