SAN ANTONIO--GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (AMEX: GSB), a leading developer of file transfer solutions, today announced Enhanced
File Transfer ServerTM Version 6.0. This newest version of
GlobalSCAPE’s flagship information-sharing solution brings
enterprise-class compliance and other high-end file transfer
protocol (FTP) capabilities to the small-to-medium (SMB)
market at affordable price points.
Along with a host of powerful new features, the introduction of
Enhanced File Transfer Server Version 6.0 marks a rebranding of
the company’s flagship FTP solutions. GlobalSCAPE’s legacy Secure
FTP ServerTM and EFT ServerTM solutions are now available as EFT
ServerTM and EFT Server EnterpriseTM, respectively. Additionally,
with the new offering, GlobalSCAPE has adopted a common,
scalable solution suite that accommodates a broad family of
add-on
modules to support customers’ ever increasing information sharing
needs, while also maintaining backward compatibility with the
company’s legacy products.
GlobalSCAPE add-on solutions such as the Auditing and
Reporting
Module (ARM), High-Security Payment Card Industry (HS-PCI)
Module,
OpenPGP Module, Web Transfer Client, and DMZ Gateway now are
available for Secure FTP Server customers who upgrade to EFT
Server or EFT Server Enterprise. The add-on modules and solutions
give SMB customers the full functionality to address regulatory
compliance requirements with a proven, scalable FTP solution. Larger
enterprises also can implement EFT Server 6.0 in a
hub-and-spoke
architecture, with EFT Server Enterprise deployed as the hubs and
EFT Server as the spokes.
“We’re changing the FTP game by bringing to SMB customers
high-end
capabilities previously associated with expensive
enterprise-class
solutions,” said Robert Oslin, Director of Product Management at
GlobalSCAPE. “Our new EFT Server 6.0 has unequivocally surpassed
the legacy Secure FTP Server competition because proven performance
and years of enterprise-level enhancements are integrated into
the
solution suite. With 6.0, we’ve set a new standard with the most
powerful SMB FTP server on the market, bar none.”
Because it delivers an integrated solution suite, GlobalSCAPE EFT
Server 6.0 provides straightforward upgrade paths. For example,
thousands of Secure FTP Server 3.x customers now can upgrade
directly to EFT Server 6.0. These users and EFT Server 5.0
customers also can upgrade their legacy installations to EFT Server
Enterprise 6.0.
EFT Server Enterprise supports large-enterprise installations
and
now includes a powerful disaster recovery and staging tool and
Oracle database support. EFT Server Enterprise also is compatible
with the new Advanced Workflow Engine (AWE) Module released by
GlobalSCAPE last month. The AWE Module provides over 200
built-in
‘drag and drop’ workflow actions, including sending SNMP traps,
communicating with mainframe computers, redirecting or relocating
files, integrating SQL and XML capabilities, and executing
third-party applications, custom programs, and batch files.
“Our Version 6.0 suite of solutions reflects almost two years of
cumulative development effort since the last major release of EFT
Server in June 2007,” noted Tim Barton, GlobalSCAPE Vice President
and Chief Engineer. “We have incorporated significant customer and
market feedback and leveraged our substantial file transfer
expertise to deliver this much-enhanced solution. No other
managed
file transfer product provides an equivalent level of compatibility
with industry standards and support for regulatory compliance
initiatives.”
GlobalSCAPE EFT Server Version 6.0 is available immediately with
pricing dependent upon applications and product configuration. For
