Drag ’n’ drop file uploads

You don’t have to set up any additional software, web browser add–ons or web apps. The drag–and–drop feature works just as well on Windows, Mac and Linux.

By standard, you will notice each of the hosts listed in a table and when you click once on a specific host, you’ll see each of the sub–folders and files related to it.
