| Overview : |
Today’s business environment requires ad hoc and instantaneous sharing of information. Systems for sending large files have not kept pace with the needs of today’s enterprise, where increasingly large and sophisticated business documents, files and media need to be quickly transmitted and shared with coworkers, business partners and customers around the world.
Existing solutions for sending large files fall short in several regards: Email does not handle large files efficiently and FTP is too difficult to manage, administer and use. End users often resort to time-consuming workarounds such as burning CDs or using unapproved (and uncontrolled) technologies such as third-party file transfer services or instant messaging.
But new technologies for secure file transfer can eliminate these problems.
