Is there any WinSCP equivalent for linux?

Question

I love WinSCP for Windows. What is the best equivalent software for Linux?

I tried to use the sshfs to mount this remote file system on the local machine, but it is not as user friendly as simply launching a GUI, plus it seems to require root access on each client machine, which is not very convenient.

In the course, command-line tools such as SCP are possible, but I am looking for a simple GUI.

If you're using the Gnome, you can go to: Places -> Connect to Server in nautilus and choose SSH. If you have an SSH agent running and configured, no password will be asked! (It is the same as the sftp://root@servername/directory in Nautilus)

In the Konqueror, you can simply type the fish://servername.

per Mike R: In Ubuntu Unity 14.0.4 it's under the Files > Connect to Server in the Menu or Network > Connect to Server in a sidebar
