Cloudtenna Introduces DirectShare to Dramatically Accelerate Transfer of Largest Files by Up to 10x or MoreSUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 4, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloudtenna, a leading provider of rapid file transfer and collaboration solutions, today announced the general availability of its flagship product, DirectShare. Any organization can deploy the lightweight DirectShare software and instantly make their largest files available to colleagues, reducing by 10x or more the time it takes to execute transfers to remote offices and outside guests. DirectShare's core Direct Collaboration File Share (DirectCFS) software layer delivers the first true innovation in this space since FTP was introduced in 1985. In addition, the DirectShare architecture guarantees the highest security in the marketplace, because data is never copied or moved to the cloud. In order to drive adoption, Cloudtenna is offering a free trial of the DirectShare solution, so that organizations can immediately begin accelerating collaboration on massive files such as video, audio, CAD files, medical imaging, scientific modeling and other data-heavy media formats. How DirectShare Works "Early on, we recognized that innovation in file transfer technologies has stalled and that existing solutions such as FTP or online storage create needless layers of complexity, confusion and security risk," said Bryan Pham, cofounder and Chief Technology Officer, Cloudtenna. "With DirectShare, we built optimization into the architecture to answer this need and deliver a modern software platform for rapid file transfers. Our DirectCFS core software significantly reduces downtime and frustrations with slow data pipelines while increasing productivity, enhancing security and improving the customer experience." The DirectCFS software layer uses common protocols in a unique way, condensing the file transfer process to its most uncomplicated form. Entirely eliminating the need for uploads, by far the most time-consuming element of the file-share process, DirectCFS quickly gets files into collaborators' hands at speeds significantly faster than traditional solutions, without the need to sync to the cloud. In addition, unlike legacy solutions such as FTP and VPN, DirectShare optimizes compute resources to complete transfers at speeds that enable content creation on much tighter deadlines, increasing overall productivity. Because files are never migrated to the cloud, existing security and compliance policies remain untouched by third party providers, offering the marketplace's most secure file collaboration. Organizations can use DirectShare to send links granting immediate access to large files, saving valuable production time and and improving workflows. Users log into the Cloudtenna Apps with their current Windows username and password. Then, they continue to work and save files to network folders as they normally would. With DirectShare, organizations can:
