NORCROSS, Ga., Nov 19, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- EasyLink Services International Corporation ("EasyLink" or "Company") (NasdaqCM: ESIC, www.easylink.com), a global provider of comprehensive messaging services and e-commerce solutions, today announced the release of version 1.2 of EasyLink MFT to help organizations around the globe protect and streamline their B2B file exchanges.
MFT (Managed File Transfer) applications secure and provide audit trails for large file exchanges that would otherwise be sent via FTP, email, or postal mail. All three of these alternative methods introduce data security risks, do not provide necessary audit trails, and can be very time consuming for IT departments to manage and for senders to transmit. This new release of EasyLink MFT further streamlines partner collaboration with functionality such as web-based file uploads and downloads, trading partner access to the MFT portal, and improved at-a-glance dashboard interfaces. "EasyLink MFT 1.2 is a real improvement on our Managed File Transfer service. It upgrades our very strong connectivity, visibility and security capabilities with significant collaboration services. Now customers with file transfer needs driven by people, not systems, get the visibility controls of an MFT platform," explains Kevin Maloney, Sr. Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing at EasyLink.
Another differentiator of the EasyLink MFT service is its Software as a Service structure. EasyLink is one of only a handful of providers that offers a fully hosted MFT solution. This SaaS model makes EasyLink MFT one of the least expensive and most scalable solutions on the market.
