Build in Functionality for a FTP data drop

Often times we upload lists over a million and takes longer than expected (especially in comparison to other ESPs). It would be nice to have the functionality to do an FTP drop of data and cut that time out so lists are ready in a more timely manner.

    Having an FTP drop wouldn't speed an import. It would merely disguise the amount of time taken to complete it by shifting the experience completely to the background.

    You can build the same architecture in 15m with any off-the-shelf FTP server and a REST API bulk import.

    It will be a really nice feature to have.

    In addition to this, it will be great to have FTP to import the data from CSV, txt and excel files.

    I have seen many case where third part systems doesn't have direct integration with Marketo but they do have functional to post the data on a FTP location. With the lack of development option, most of the times, you end up uploading these files manually.  If we have this feature, I guess it will help a lot of folks in automatic the data import and export using FTP.
