For educational organizations

HTTP Commander is used by educational organizations for providing a remote access for students and teachers to private or their own folders. The version with Windows authentication is most often used because users have already been created in Active Directory. The version can be easily and quickly installed as there is no need to create users, modify existing NTFS permissions and shares. Right after installation the application is ready to be used and by default all users of a domain have an access to a private folder. The access to other folders can be easily set up. The application has the most popular and necessary features for educational organizations since they have been using it since 2002.

"HTTP Commander is a Web Based File Manager which our school has used successfully for over 8 years providing our students and faculty quick and easy access to their network shares using a web browser. Technical support is excellent and the newest version provides many features including easy file transfer to DropBox. I highly recommend HTTP Commander for use in schools."
