Overview
SFTPGo is a Managed File Transfer solution that abstracts storage backends and allows access to files using the standard SFTP, FTPS, and WebDAV protocols and the built-in WebClient over HTTPS.
This offer includes SFTPGo Enterprise, an enhanced version of the open-source SFTPGo, built upon its core functionality and designed for organizations that need advanced features and better performance.
The Starter tier is a cost-effective solution for small to medium-scale file transfer environments. No software-imposed limits on users or connections, with up to 20 concurrent uploads and downloads. Storage options include local filesystem or S3 (compatible) buckets. Detailed audit logs are also available directly within the WebAdmin UI.
For higher concurrent transfer limits, support for additional storage backends and advanced features like PGP encryption/decryption or more advanced automation through the EventManager, please refer to our Premium offer.
With SFTPGo you can leverage local and cloud storage backends for exchanging and storing files internally or over the Internet using the same tools and processes you are already familiar with.
The WebAdmin UI allows administrators to easily create and manage users, folders, groups, and other resources. Available with dark and light themes.
The WebClient UI allows end users to change their credentials, browse and manage their files in the browser, and set up two-factor authentication which works with Microsoft Authenticator, Google Authenticator, Authy, and other standard compliant apps.
From the WebClient each authorized user can also create HTTP/S links to externally share files and folders securely, by setting limits to the number of downloads/uploads, protecting the share with a password, limiting access by source IP address, setting an automatic expiration date. Available with dark and light themes.

- Support for multiple storage backends: local filesystem, S3 (compatible).
- Custom workflows based on server events or schedules.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
