Take our File Transfer Calculator for a drive. Though we don’t offer options for every city and bandwidth, you can easily get a sense of the performance improvement you gain with Signiant products. Play around with different file sizes, bandwidth and locations. Note that the larger the file size, the higher the bandwidth and the further the location, the more you will benefit by using Signiant’s file acceleration technology. Of course, real-world results may vary depending on your specific network configuration.
File Transfer Tools
File transfer tools are readily available and widely used, but when it comes to modern media operations, many of them have big weaknesses that can and should be avoided. Just some of the common file transfer tool deficiencies include:
- They take control of your media and move it to their storage
- Security protocols are not always designed for media
- There is no file acceleration
- There is limited insight transfer operations
Media companies have unique technical and workflow requirements, and you need a file transfer tool built to adhere to them. Using the right tools for a project can make file delivery easier and more secure, but using twelve separate tools for your company’s various file transfer needs becomes a hassle and a security risk. You need a tool that is fit for your purpose.
