I am looking at wexfree and it's a very nice product. Although duing testing I found a problem with the upload service. Anything above 750k becomes extremly slow. I am on a local LAN and 750k uploads in the blink of an eye. Anything above that is slower then "sneaker net". I dont have a problem with buying the pro version, but I need something simple and less is more for these PHD's I work with. I know the pro version is going to be too complex for them.
What I am really getting at is, is there a way to buy the pro version yet have the simple web interface of the free version with fast upload speeds? And possibly the multiple upload script, since that is a nice feature.
I know this is almost getting into custom scripting, but hopefully you can just replace the upload script on the free version and be set.
Thanks for the help!

Is that your experience with the latest version (2.0) ? The previous versions were weak in uploading but I vastly improved uploading in version 2.0. Also you have the option now to write your own file transfer plugin which utilizes your favorite 3rd party component.
Please provide me your email so that I can contact you on your special requests.

The tests I conducted were using the wexFree2.0.
I have provided my email addess this time!
Also, does wexPro use the same upload script as wexfree?

WebExplorer Pro uses nearly the same "generic" file transfer plugin as the Free version but it supports three extra 3rd party upload components in addition. If the performance of the generic plugin is not enough for you then you should consider using a 3rd party upload component. I have sent you an email concerning your request.
