Compared to FTP, FTPS is also a secure connection protocol. So you can use FTPS to connect to IIS.
When you use FTPS, you need to create a ftp site and set its binding information to ftps. Configure a correct certificate. Don't forget to set ftp passive mode in firewall setting.
If you want to use other third-party tools connect ftp server, you'd better consult them how to use on their own forum. Thrid-party tools are not support in Microsoft Q&A.

Windows IIS doesn't support SFTP.
The only option with Windows IIS is to use FTPS or FTP over TLS/SSL which is a different protocol and not compatible to SFTP.
The common FTP clients should be able to connect to FTPS/FTP over TLS/SSL as well.----------
