FileZilla Pro review

A low annual price, but the site leaves Pro’s specific features unclear. Compare the device limits before switching.

The bottom line

Affordable annual plans, but too little Pro-specific detail to make switching an easy call.

FileZilla Pro’s listed Single Device plan costs €12.99 billed annually, or €1.08 per month as an equivalent; monthly billing prices are not published. The pricing page also lists a three-device plan for €29.99 per year and a seven-day trial through the Microsoft Store and Mac App Store. The homepage describes FileZilla as a free FTP solution, but does not explain Pro’s specific features.

That leaves a basic comparison problem: the price and device caps are clear, while the product differences are not. One Reddit thread reports configuring a custom WebDAV server for syncing, but the discussions provided offer little broader evidence about Pro or its support.

01What FileZilla Pro actually does

FileZilla Pro is a paid product in the FileZilla lineup, but the homepage gives buyers little detail about what Pro itself does. It describes FileZilla as a free FTP solution and lists Pro in the product navigation; it doesn’t explain Pro’s specific features or how they differ from the free product.

The site also links to FileZilla Server, RemoteDrive, documentation and source code. Those listings shouldn’t be treated as a feature list for Pro. Pricing materials identify separate Pro products for desktop use, command-line use, an enterprise server and RemoteDrive, but don’t fill in the gaps on supported protocols or transfer features.

A Reddit user discussing cloud saves said they could configure a custom WebDAV server and sync files, depending on setup. That’s a user report, not product documentation. We’d want to confirm the exact protocols and workflow before switching based on a specific use case.

02Where FileZilla Pro is strong

The clearest advantage is the annual price for an individual licence. According to the pricing information checked on November 6, 2026, the Single Device plan costs €12.99 billed annually, equivalent to €1.08 a month. It covers one device and lists Windows, Mac and Linux. The Multiple Devices plan is €29.99 a year (€2.50 a month equivalent) for up to three devices.

Other listed options make the lineup easier to price around specific needs:

  • FileZilla Pro CLI is €12.99 a year for one Windows command-line device.
  • The GUI-and-CLI bundle is €24.99 a year, listed as €7.99 less than buying separately.
  • Enterprise Server is €199.99 a year for one server, with unlimited users and bandwidth, plus a 30-day money-back guarantee.
  • RemoteDrive is €12.99 a year for one macOS device.

The pricing information also lists a seven-day free trial through the Microsoft Store and Mac App Store; RemoteDrive’s trial is through the Mac App Store. For buyers comfortable paying annually, the entry price is low. Monthly prices aren’t published.

03Where it falls short

The main problem is the product information, not a clearly documented feature cap. FileZilla’s homepage calls FileZilla a free FTP solution but doesn’t explain what Pro adds, which protocols it supports, or how its workflow differs. That makes it hard to compare against another client or decide whether a migration is worthwhile without checking the relevant store listing or documentation first.

The licences also have firm scope limits: Single Device and CLI cover one device, Multiple Devices covers up to three, CLI is for Windows, and RemoteDrive is macOS-only. Enterprise Server includes one server; its unlimited users and bandwidth don’t mean unlimited servers. Those may be fine for a small setup, but they matter if you need more devices or servers.

There’s no published monthly price in the published pricing information, so the listed monthly figures are annual-cost equivalents, not month-to-month rates. The seven-day trial is tied to specific app stores, rather than being clearly offered for every product. Reddit discussion about WebDAV is anecdotal, and the homepage doesn’t confirm those details. Buyers need more product-specific documentation before treating Pro as a safe like-for-like switch.

04FileZilla Pro pricing: what you'll actually pay

The listed annual price for FileZilla Pro starts at €12.99 for one device, or €1.08 per month as an equivalent. That license covers Windows, Mac or Linux. The multiple-device plan costs €29.99 a year (€2.50 per month equivalent) for up to three devices—a €17 annual jump. Monthly billing prices are not published.

The Windows command-line client is also €12.99 annually. If you need both the single-device GUI license and CLI, the bundle is €24.99 a year, listed as €7.99 less than buying them separately. Enterprise Server costs €199.99 annually for one server, unlimited users and unlimited bandwidth. RemoteDrive is €12.99 annually, for one macOS device.

A seven-day trial is available through the Microsoft Store and Mac App Store; RemoteDrive’s trial is via the Mac App Store. No add-ons are listed. Check the store terms before buying, since the listed prices are annual charges—not monthly plans.

05Switching to (or from) FileZilla Pro

The available product information is too thin to estimate migration effort. FileZilla’s homepage links to documentation, but the published material does not explain how to move saved connections, settings or transfer workflows into Pro—or export them if you leave. It also lists FileZilla Pro without describing its specific features, so we can’t assess compatibility against your current client from these sources.

Before switching, confirm which operating systems and device count you need: the listed licenses cover one device or up to three, and the CLI plan is for Windows. Ask FileZilla support or consult its documentation about transferring connection details and exporting settings before you pay. The published sources include no Reddit reports about why users leave, so we can’t responsibly name common complaints or switching triggers. If monthly billing or more than three licensed devices is a requirement, the listed plans don’t meet it.

From the threadsWhat users say

The small Reddit sample is mixed: one thread has practical, user-published advice about WebDAV and using multiple devices, while another commenter says their malware program blocked an installer. Those posts do not establish FileZilla Pro’s official feature set or confirm a malware issue.
