NOTE: Update to the latest version of FileZilla. Outdated versions may encounter login problems.

FileZilla is one of the most frequently used FTP programs. You can also use FileZilla to log in via sFTP.

Login via Quick Connect or Quick Connect
Quick Connect is logging in via the bar at the top of the screen at FileZilla. Because you can only log in to Savvii via sFTP (FTP over SSH), it does not work to enter only the host, username and password here. For the Savvii hostname, sftp:// must be added, like so:


Then press Quick Connect. The first time you connect, you may be asked if you want to add a key. You can allow this.

Using Site Management or Site Management
In Site Management you can specify the connection protocol. It is not necessary to add sftp:// to the host name. The login type is 'normal'. The connection port is 22.


After this you can press connect at the bottom of the screen to log in.
