Sync Motion Managed SFTP review
A hosted SFTP endpoint with a free tier and paid options for more accounts and controls.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Sync Motion Managed SFTP provides a hosted endpoint for exchanging files with customers, suppliers, applications, and machines. It suits teams that want the vendor to operate the SFTP server rather than maintain that infrastructure themselves. Connections use standard SFTP clients or scripts over SSH on port 22, with password or SSH-key authentication. The service is cloud-hosted, and storage is encrypted at rest using AES-256.
The plans scale by storage, account limits, and operational controls. Free includes 5 GB storage, one SFTP account, and SSH-key authentication. Pro costs $14 per month with annual billing or $16.80 monthly, and includes 100 GB storage, up to five accounts, audit logs, and IP allowlisting. Business is $59 per month annually or $70.80 monthly; it raises storage to 1 TB, allows unlimited accounts, and adds a dedicated instance and priority support. Enterprise offers a dedicated environment or on-premise option, with SLA and support by agreement and a dedicated account manager. For teams comparing transfer capacity, published plan details state 1 TB transfer alongside Pro storage, without needing to infer a converted figure.
Integrations with WinSCP and FileZilla support familiar client-based transfers, while n8n and Make are listed for workflow connections. Pro and higher tiers add separate accounts, logs, and IP controls; Business and higher add a dedicated instance. Email, phone, and documentation are support channels, though support is not available 24/7. The free tier gives a small team a way to start with basic managed transfers, while Pro is a more suitable fit when access separation and activity visibility matter. Teams that need higher storage or dedicated infrastructure should consider Business; buyers requiring round-the-clock support should look elsewhere.
