Hatchet Alternatives

Hatchet is paid macOS software that enables you to edit and transfer remote files over secure shell connections. Many of its alternatives are more multifaceted, though there are a few that feature support for SSH as well.

Many may prefer free and open source alternatives to Hatchet due to being a program centered around data transfer over multiple locations with an emphasis on security. Nothing is more secure than knowing how the program you use to handle these file transfers operates!

Hatchet alternatives are mainly FTP Clients but may also be Cloud Storage Services or File Sync Tools. Filter by these if you want a narrower list of alternatives or looking for a specific functionality of Hatchet.
