Question Any plans to support additional FTP server products besides Microsoft FTP?

Joe Payne

In order to maintain PCI compliance, we cannot use unencrypted FTP on the FTP server. Microsoft FTP only supports FTPS, which meets the PCI requirement when set to Require SSL.

However many popular cloud services do not support FTPS and fail to connect to Plesk servers running Microsoft FTP Server.

Are there any plans for supporting alternate FTP services such as WinSCP or FileZilla Server that offer SFTP connectivity?
 
According to the document (for Windows) that you posted:

It is not possible to use SFTP in Plesk for Windows as SFTP only used on Linux environment.

Technically this is not true. There are third party binaries that offer SSH shell support which then provides SFTP.
