Most webmasters, developers and admins are well aware of the increasing popularity of Cloud Hosting services. They are considered to be the most likely alternates to dedicated server hosting. The primary reason for such a shift of preference is due to the fact that cloud servers are fairly cheap and come with enhanced reliability. One of the leading provider in this category is Amazon due to their simple storage services (S3). These services more importantly offer robustness on top of other useful features. The only aspect where is fall short is their offering of just an interface (web) which at times seem cumbersome. Therefore, a free service named CloudBerry Explorer can prove helpful. Its a clone which is claimed to improve the operability of Amazon’s Web interface.

Basically, the CloudBerry Explorer operation is similar to an FTP client and offers an easy navigation panels in a side by side layout. With such an interface, users are capable of uploading their local data to S3 buckets. Similarly, one can downloading data from the S3 onto the local storage or transfer them directly between the S3 accounts. One more way for uploading the files and folders is via sync folders. The Cloud-Berry explorer is capable of even an automated recent file uploads to any S3 bucket and similarly it can download to you local storage. Such a unique feature can come really handy when multiple developers using different machines require updated copy of data that is hosted on Cloud hosting servers.

With the CloudBerry Explorer users have the capability of making amendments to files that are uploaded. It offers an option to edit permissions on individual levels, or one can even mass-apply the permissions to a defined set of folders. Users have been offered the capability of making changes to HTTP headers plus set default values. Hence making management of crucial settings such as cache controls more simpler.

Though, one needs to pay $40 inorder to get the Pro-version, but the basic version is still free. Since security has been a crucial aspect, one can avail an encrypted path only with the Pro version.
