I saw a video on YouTube where someone uploaded files from his computer to his domain using an upload button in cPanel. I haven't done any website work in a while. Do I still need to use ftp software? Thank you.

If you use cpanel you wont need to use ftp. But you have to upload one file at a time. So it is bet to .zip your files then uncompress them on the server (through filemanager).

CPanel is the bomb if you have it. No need for any FTP programs with it.

FTP is the best for mass uploading such as an entire site or 1000 page script. If you just need to upload a few pages or images using cpanel upload feature is fine.

If you have even 5 files to upload at a time, it is worth getting a ftp program. It can save you a lot of time down the road.
