I’ve looked around and for me TNT Drive (http://tntdrive.com) has worked out pretty well. I use Cloudberry for S3 management and I am looking forward to their “Cloud Drive” which is in beta now.

The Zettar ZCloud Virtual Appliance (ZCloud) enables you to setup a local Amazon S3 sandbox instantly on any computer, even a tiny netbook. Developers and QA engineers can use it to prototype, analyze, test, and stage a cloud application locally, before rolling it out onto Amazon Web Services (AWS). Thus, ZCloud can improve, simplify and speed up your development, and minimize AWS S3 development costs.

Hi,
Nice post, it’s good to see the variety of clients that have added support for Amazon S3.

We’ve been a big fan of Amazon S3 and have had S3 support in WebDrive (www.webdrive.com) for many years now, going back to 2008.

While WebDrive supports many other protocols and services, we have a large customer base who is using it to access their S3 storage repository.

Transmit by Panic software also has easy S3 configuration, plus “droplets” and direct-from-doc uploading.

did you forget to include S3 Backup (Maluke Software) on this list? It seems like one of the most feature-ful programs, including encrypted credentials (so if you lose your lappie no one can find out your key), password protection, encryption and compression, and what seems like a fast, smooth transfer mechanism. Most important for me were password protection of the app and encryption for uploads.

Hi, I’m actually a developer at SMEStorage. I’m not sure why David R thinks we posted this ‘review’. To my knowledge we didn’t (although I’m not a marketeer), and we did create the Facebook plug-n from a customer request viewpoint, although I could not tell you it was specifically for this guy “John Woodcock”.

We do have a really nice new windows update coming out to our tooling which we are looking for beta users for. It is Windows 7 ready, and it supports streaming of MP3′s and videos, creation of MP3 winamp ‘cloud’ playlists, sync tools, shell integration, public and private file seach and more. It supports Amazon S3, Mosso Cloud Files, MobileMe, GMail, Gmail Apps, Box.net, FTP, Email (POP3 and IMAP needed), and WebDav clouds, and will support Microsoft Live Skydrive also in the next couple of week.

As always these can be used as separate accounts or all accounts together with all files viewed in one file system.

If anyone is interested in participating in a beta of this, please contact me (Neil AT thesmespace.com).

Thanks

Neil

Ironically, I found this page while searching for a review of SMEStorage. I was looking over their site and it certainly does look like an interesting service. Do you know anyone who has used or reviewed it? I’d like to know how well it performs for a “real” user.

Yes, it is an blatant ad but I think people are smart enough to figured it out so I approved a comment anyway. In fact I’d prefer them to be honest and just suggest their tool instead of trying to make it look like it was someone else…
