I personally prefer Hue as well, but here are more alternatives: - You can use the Eclipse Plugin integrations (what comes bundled, and also Karmasphere). I believe these use the tree-browser view mode. - Unfortunately I do not recall the name but there was this one FTP or remote-file-browsing client software, written in Java entirely, which catered to HDFS as one of its protocols (seems to be the only one!). This allowed regular filezilla-style browsing. - Mount your HDFS with fuse-dfs and you get to use your native file browser to browse it and do actions like you would on a regular filesystem.
(I believe there are lot of other options, these are off the top of my head.)
