The HellcatNetworks File Manager

Posting files with an FTP tool is an outdated and quite an unsafe method for relocating data files from your desktop computer or notebook to a hosting server. That’s why, we have included drag–and–drop file publish support in the File Manager. Just pull the data files that you need to publish from your desktop computer into your browser and they will start to publish in your hosting account through a risk–free SSL communication.

All the changes that you come up with and save are going to be demonstrated at once on the world wide web, which means you can preview them in your own browser and return to create more modifications, if you are not happy with the result.

You don’t have to download any files whatsoever, to revise them in your machine and then to re–upload them back to your cloud hosting account. All the editors are accessible using the buttons near the top of the file table or from your right–click contextual menus.
