StingRay is Managed File Transfer
February 27th, 2009Managed File Transfer is fast becoming the latest buzz phrase for all those businesses needing a file transfer solution. Managed File Transfer is not a new concept its been around for a number of years its just that companies now need file transfer to be an integrated process within the organisation instead of a standalone process with little to no management information.
The term Managed File Transfer basically suggests that the process of transferring files is audited, providing reporting, guaranteed delivery and automation. Hermstedt’s StingRay Managed File Transfer Server has been around for seven years now and provides a great degree of management information including which user sent the files, when and what files they sent and to who.
In addition to tracking and logging all of the managed file transfers that the StingRay undertakes it also stores all of the accounting logs on the server for exporting in a tab delimited format so that they may be used for accounting purposes.
Managed File Transfer doesn’t need to be expensive. There are many products on the market which position themselves in this space many of them many times more expensive than the StingRay Managed File Transfer server.
Why should companies invest in Managed File Transfer? Quite simply other file transfer solutions don’t offer the range of features required for today’s file transfer requirements. Send and forget just isn’t an option these days businesses need to be able to rely on guaranteed delivery of data. Managed File Transfer is the future of file transfer.
