Panic today announced<\/a> the launch of Transmit 5<\/a>, the newest version of its popular Mac-based file transfer app. Transmit 5 is a massive update, introducing an improved UI, new features, additional servers, and a Panic Sync feature.<\/p>\n

According to Panic, everything from the core file transfer engine to the “Get Info” experience was entirely rethought, overhauled, and improved, for an even better file management experience.<\/p>\n

\"\"
For those unfamiliar with Transmit, it’s designed to allow users to upload, download, and manage files on local and remote servers, turning file management into a simple drag-and-drop affair with a clean easy-to-use interface. Transmit 5 works with FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, and S3, and it connects to Backblaze B2, Box, Google Drive, DreamObjects, Dropbox, Microsoft Azure, and Rackspace.<\/p>\n

The new version of Transmit also features Panic Sync, designed to offer a quick and safe way to sync sites and keep Panic data up to date across all apps and devices. Panic Sync is part of another major change – Transmit 5’s absence from the Mac App Store.<\/p>\n

Panic will not be releasing Transmit 5 in the Mac App Store, which, the company explains, is due to its inability to offer a demo through Apple’s storefront. “This allows us to distribute a demo which we think is extremely helpful for people considering Transmit,” reads an FAQ<\/a> on the blog post announcing the release.<\/p>\n

Panic says the company plans to “constantly re-evaluate” the Mac App Store and hopes to return at some point, presumably if Apple introduces a wider range of features for developers, such as free trials and demos.<\/p>\n

Transmit 5 is priced at $35<\/a> for the next week, and after that, the price will go up to $45. There is no upgrade discount for customers who have purchased an earlier version of Transmit, but those who purchased Transmit 4 after June 1 can get a free update.<\/p>\n

A free trial is available from the Transmit 5 website<\/a> for those who would like to try Transmit before making a purchase.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
