Slow, and cannot resume properly
This application promises a lot, and underdelivers on a lot of it. Not only are the SFTP speeds extremely low, but resuming after an interrupted transfer is a painful task, completely hit and miss. If one is downloading a folder, then transmit does not initiate multiple connections to download each of the files over separate connections in parallel. Rather, it downloads them serially, even though I have specified ten simultaneous connections in the options. In addition, one cannot mount SFTP shares as disks using the menu bar icon. It looks good, and doesn’t manage much else. There are free applications available which provide more throughput and more reliable resuming capabilities.
