Smart remove!

The Ensure Folder Action streamlines the classical approach to automation. Instead of using the "if a folder exists, remove it" method, this smart Action ensures that a folder is in a specified state—exists, does not exist, or is empty.

Remote erase? Easy!

To delete directories directly from remote servers, use the Remove Remote Directory Action.

Even more, for managing multiple servers and workflows over LAN or the internet, utilize the remote tools and flexible deployment features available through a simple yet efficient user interface.
