solaris or linux sftp/ftp-server

Hi,

we have a big problem,

history:
we migrated our companies ftp and sftp-server, which were vsftp and openssh, to one server, software is called JSCAPE ftp server professional edition
for the first time everything was great, but after one or two months, our uploads hang, 0 byte files are created, very very slow uploads in comparison to openssh, users are dying, means they can't log in from one moment to another and must be recreated, and so on
new installs on the same machine or other machines with different operating systems leaded to the same troubles after a period of time
support is doing nothing, response time up too one! week
so we must go away from this product

we need a sftp/ftp server with centralized user management, having an chroot environment, (I don't mean something like jailkit, copying needed binarys, special files and /etc files to a subfolder, I mean a real chroot like vsftp or proftp provide, eg. the user must not change above his ftp home directory)
an admin should be able to choose sftp/ftp or both for every user
filesystem quotas for ftp and sftp

platform can be linux/bsd/solaris x86 or sparc solaris,

does anyone know such a product, open source or not? or a way to configure basic tools like openssh, vsftp like that?

I really need your help guys!

thanks in advance

SYNOPSIS

       sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.

       To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

       Subsystem   sftp     /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

       See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.

       There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

       The following exit values are returned:

       0        Successful completion.
