    Comments about FileZilla as an Alternative to Mountain Duck
    Comment summary: Mountain Duck and FileZilla are often noted for their differences rather than similarities. Mountain Duck excels at mounting remote storage as a native drive, making it visible in file explorers on both Windows and macOS, a feature FileZilla lacks. Users frequently highlight that FileZilla is an FTP client, while Mountain Duck offers broader functionality by integrating cloud storage as network drives. Many comments stress that FileZilla doesn't serve as an adequate alternative to Mountain Duck due to these core differences.

    Doesn't actually mount remote store as a volume. Just syncs which takes up local space.

    While Mountain Duck can mount cloud storage as a volume, I want full integration with Finder as a Folder. Plus, the sync option between computers is amazing. I can load up a new computer and allow it to access the same files seamlessly. Worth the $.
