Great Potential – iStorage 2 for FTP, WebDAV, Dropbox, MS Skydrive and Cloud Review

This program is worth the price for its ability to act as a webdav and FTP client. Being able to download, edit and upload files is fantastic. I would give it four stars if it were more stable, because it is crash prone. Besides the instabilty, its biggest flaw is that secure webdav (over https) simply doesn't work. I believe this is a genuine problem, because I have tested with two different webdav sites. If secure webdav is required, you should not download iStorage. I have not yet tested secure FTP. The interface is easy to use, but could look a little nicer. It is surprising how much attractive graphics and animations can improve the user experience. For future versions, the ability to open password protected compressed files would be useful, as would support for other types of secure FTP. A recent update caused all my document files to be deleted. This is a problem that will need to be fixed in future updates. In the meantime users need to make sure their iStore files are backed up before updating.
