freeFTPd
freeFTPd is a FTP/FTPS/SFTP server that enables user to access remote files over TCP/IP network such as Internet. Unlike FTP, FTPS and SFTP protocols provide security and strong encryption of data - great for insecure network.
Very easy and works well.
What about freeFTPd do you feel is nicer than the one built into Windows, which is the same one from Linux?
Windows has always been platform where third party software were better:
You are seriously suggesting that a third party makes an SSH better than OpenSSH?
This is the same one used by IBM, Red Hat, Apple, Suse, Ubuntu, FreeBSD, even OpenBSD. You can't really be suggesting that some little unknown SSH implementation is going to compete with the single most agreed upon product in the industry that also happens to be open source?
If "I don't trust the software Microsoft chooses" is the sole reason for paying for extra software, that's a really bad process.

AV = ESET is better
I've had the misfortune of dealing with ESET and I can tell you, I don't agree with you in the least. We won't even let ESET in the shop, we literally don't trust the company. And it's reliability was terrible compared to Defender. Worst I've ever dealt with.
