SSH would in some ways be the best option. It's secure, and easy for
the server admins to set up and permission. But it makes a
cross-platform client harder, particularly on Windows (no
vendor-supplied scp binary, and it's known to be very hard to build
libssh2 there).
Actually, Windows 10 now comes with OpenSSH by default, and it has the
SCP command that can be used the same way you'd use it on Unices.
And since essentially all the other MSWindows versions are unsupported
(except for 8.1, which, let's be real, nobody uses).
So that shouldn't be a big problem.
