SendThisFile Breakthrough Allows Users to Send Large Files Over 2 Gigabytes Without Extra Software

SendThisFile, Inc., a Kansas based Managed Internet File Transfer Company, is relaunchingit's service with a powerful, feature-laden beta.
After weeks of internal testing, the SendThisFile development team launched the new beta version of it's website to paid customers. Founder and CEO, Aaron Freeman, envisioned the beta as a way to improve large file sending without special desktop software, "The goal of the beta was to break through the browser's two gigabyte file size limit, and we were able to achieve that thanks to Java."
The development team relied on Java to enable the improvements. Java is a programing language that runs on many different computer operating systems and comes pre-installed on most computers. With Java enabled, SendThisFile customers only need to allow a Java applet to run within the browser, eliminating the need to download or update special desktop application software.
With the new beta enabled, SendThisFile customers will experience powerful new features. Customers can now send large files over two gigabytes, a size limitation that exists within todays web browsers. "It's a game changer," said Scott Sexton, VP of Business Development. "No other managed file transfer service allows customers to send large files of over two gigabytes from inside the browser. What makes us unique is that our competitors require you to download a special app for every OS, and then you have to maintain the latest version. We eliminated that."
The beta introduces features that are often unavailable in other browser-based managed file transfer service providers. Customers who send large files can now resume interrupted file transfers. Previously, intermittent Wi-fi connections and power-save modes were common culprits that could interrupt a browser's file transfer, requiring a restart of the entire process. Re-starting the transfer process can cost hours of time. With an internet connection re-established, the beta resumes transferring data from the last bit sent. The beta will also automatically detect and compress multiple files and folders into a .zip file, which reduces the files size and simplifies sharing.
SendThisFile is currently offering the beta to existing paid customers and those on a 15-day trial. Users can access the beta by signing into their account and enabling the beta on the "Send Files" page.
