FASTCopy Server is SoftLink's more restricted version of FASTCopy. While it enables organizations to receive and supply files on demand without limiting the number of clients, the FASTCopy Server places limitations on the number of concurrent transfers. The FASTCopy Server provides a one-way transaction, requiring the client itself to make the actual transfer initiation. No Post Transfer activation is possible in this version. The FASTCopy Server is the most economical B2B transfer solution, enabling organizations to reach an unlimited number of clients with a limited number of licenses.

FASTCopy Server architecture installs FASTCopy with a special license onto your server. The FASTCopy Server allows:

Unlimited number of clients.
Licensed by number of concurrent sessions - optimizing costs.
Initiation of the file transfer is on the client's node only.
Post transfer operation on the server are not allowed.

FASTCopy Server offers the same technology, reliability, security, bandwidth controlled and automated file transfer features that FASTCopy offers (Download a free evaluation kit).

Solution

FASTCopy Server provides the ultimate file transfer engine for organizations that need to transfer files to and from clients or suppliers. By limiting the concurrent number of transfers the FASTCopy Server offers a more cost effective solution, which does not restrict the actual number of clients your company reaches. The FASTCopy Server does not require any supervision as it overcomes failures by continuing to operate and work in the background until the transfer is successful. Comprehensive reporting is provided during and after each FASTCopy operation.

The unique FASTCopy engine has been used to create several industrial grade business solutions. Please visit our
