Huge CAD/CAM Files? Send Them with Ease

For over 5 decades, CAD/CAM software has been helping engineers, architects, and designers push their business or technology further with an awesomely robust and unified software platform that improves speed and efficiency. Yet, when it comes time to send these large designs or diagrams to the manufacturer, none of these companies deliver a way to easily, reliably, and securely transfer your data.

Traditionally, users have fluctuated between any combination of email, 3^rd party consumer cloud applications, FTP, and mailing of physical drives, in an attempt to send these large design files. LeapFILE, like CAD/CAM, delivers a unified platform that allows you and other members of your team to easily send and receive large files while providing full security and notifications upon delivery for every file.

Why Other Methods Don’t Work

You’re busy and don’t have time for extra steps, processes, or roadblocks. Furthermore, the data you are sending is proprietary and needs to remain secure at all times because it is your intellectual property. Here’s why other methods of sending large CAD/CAM files don’t work:

• Email doesn’t allow you to attach large files. It also doesn’t provide a verification that your email was received.
• 3^rd party consumer cloud apps aren’t secure. They also can’t reliably send really large files.
• FTP can be reliable, but doesn’t provide any security for transfers and has zero user management capabilities. If you give an outside party access to your FTP, they get access to everything that is in it. Also, FTP requires maintenance and infrastructure which can cost more than its worth.
• Mailing physical drives is not viable or secure because that data can get stolen or compromised along the way … huge security risk!

LeapFILE Streamlines Large File Transfer

With LeapFILE, you can send any files, of any size, as easily as you do an email.

On top of simple, secure transfer, LeapFILE users get notifications when recipients receive the message and again when they download them. This way you know for certain that your file has been received.

Portals Keep Data Safe and Available

LeapFILE also provides a great portal capability that allows user to permit and control guest access to a secure area where files are available for download anytime.

Exchanging large files is easy with LeapFILE. Outside clients or guests can always send a single file or be provisioned access to multiple files so they can get what they need, when they need it.

Send Quickbooks Files Easily and Securely

QuickBooks Offers No Solution for Sending Large Files

An article posted by QuickBooks support, “Sending or receiving a QuickBooks file that is too large to be e-mailed” immediately caught our attention. For a product that is so widely adopted by accountants, we couldn’t believe that QuickBooks doesn’t offer a viable solution for sending it’s large files to clients, customers, or even internal colleagues.

The article suggests inconsistent, often ineffective methods to share/send your large QuickBooks file(s) … everything from compression to flash drives is on their list. These options don’t work:

• You can’t rely on email because it doesn’t provide any notification upon delivery so there is no way to know whether or not the file was received.
• Compression isn’t a good option because even if the file is small enough to be sent via email after it’s compressed, there is no guarantee that the person receiving it will have the appropriate software to unpack it.
• Flash and physical drives can’t possibly be your answer because not only is it very easy to loss them, but you’d have to hand deliver or mail them creating an additional cost and opportunity for the loss or theft of your data.

These alternatives add too many extra steps to a process that doesn’t have to be complicated.
