Finder alternative with drag and drop to your servers
Finder handles your local files well. FileBridge handles local and remote in the same window.
Two panes
Two folders open side by side in one window, instead of a second Finder window.
Drag and drop
Drag files from one pane to the other to copy them, including to and from remote servers.
Connect to servers
Open SFTP and S3 connections next to your local files.
Workspaces
Save the panes, folders and connections you are in, and load them back later as they were.

Why people look for a Finder alternative
One Finder window shows one folder, so moving files starts by dragging a second window into place
Finder cannot connect to a server and move files onto it, so you need a second app
Switching between projects means finding the same folders again each time
No address bar to type a path into and go straight there
