If you use Amazon S3 and would like to manage your files using a clean and easy interface, you might want to try out CloudBerry S3 Explorer freeware tool which allows you to manage your files on Amazon S3 using simple drag and drop features. The other tool which i often use for my projects is Gladinet. (read: Gladinet Delivers Web Applications and Online Files To Your Desktop)

CloudBerry S3 Explorer freeware tool,makes managing files in Amazon S3 storage EASY. By providing a user interface to Amazon S3 accounts, files, and buckets, CloudBerry lets you manage your files on cloud just as you would on your own local computer.

1.) Cloudberry S3 Explorer’s interface is like most of the present day FTP clients with a split in the screen, one split allows you to see files on your computer, while the other split shows objects in your S3 account. Cloudberry Explorer also allows you to quickly jump between sub-folders and parent directories.

2.) Using Cloudberry S3 Explorer you can register and connect to any number of Amazon S3 accounts.

3.) It also allows for buckets to be switched on the fly from US to the EU.

4.) Cloudberry S3 Explorer also allows you to setup CloudFront using the tool directly. Infact, the latest version of CloudBerry Explorer also has support for CloudFront Streaming (read: Setup Streaming Media Content on Amazon CloudFront) and even generating an html code for popular video players.

5.) You can also make a S3 bucket public or private directly using Cloudberry S3 Explorer.

6.) Using Cloudberry S3 Explorer, you can also setup access control lists (ACL) with ACL editor, you can grant access rights to other Amazon S3 users or to any internet users. Besides, you can propagate bucket ACL to all files in that bucket.

7.) CloudBerry S3 Explorer also allows you to generate URL for single or multiple objects. The freeware tool also allows you to generate time limited URLs which expire at a predefined time.

8.) S3 Explorer freeware can connect to multiple S3 accounts simultaneous and also allow you to copy / move files from one account to another.

Cloudberry S3 Explorer also has a Pro version called S3 Explorer Pro. It is available for a price of $39.99 only.
