Sciforma Chooses Ipswitch WS_FTP for Its Security and Usability

Company Uses Product to Keep Its 500 Employees Connected with Customer Base

LEXINGTON, Mass., July 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Ipswitch, Inc.'s File Transfer
division, the leading developer of secure and managed file transfer solutions,
announced today that Sciforma, a worldwide project and process management
software solutions and services company, recently deployed WS_FTP Server
v. 6.1 and WS_FTP Professional 2007, the most popular file transfer client
available. The security and usability features were key considerations in the
purchase decision.
"We purchased WS_FTP because it was very easy to implement and we could
better manage different levels of users," said Rob DeVenuto, senior account
executive, Sciforma. "Our employees and customers are finding the
synchronization capabilities particularly useful. We previously had issues
connecting to servers in remote locations, but by setting up an automated
schedule with WS_FTP, we were able to solve the problem."
WS_FTP Server v. 6.1 delivers powerful enterprise-level security, granular
administrative control over server access and user permissions, event-driven
automation, robust logging capabilities for auditing and compliance, and
best-in-class performance and reliability -- all with an easy to use Web-based
user interface. It scales to a virtually unlimited number of user accounts and
concurrent user connections, and supports FTP, SSL and SSH protocol
connections.
"Our users also like the folder link capabilities," said DeVenuto. "When
making changes to a Website they needed to change files in multiple
directories and then sync. Now they are able to change directories on one and
then auto change other machines. It's very slick and very easy."
