This is BY FAR the buggiest program I have ever downloaded. It barely works. It’s the only program that has every frozen finder on my macbook pro to the point where it required a hard restart. And it does this often.
On the plus side there is not competition that I know of. If you want a program that can mount an ssh connection to your computer like its a local volume that has a GUI then there is no other.
