Have You Considered FTP Sites for Your Business?

FTP Today has the FTP Service You Want

For any streamlined information transfer business, an FTP -- or File Transfer Protocol -- account is essential. The implications of your own FTP account are tremendous. If your industry requires up-to-the-minute reports, pictures, and all other types of information, the FTP account is a crucial requirement to your business.

FTP Today: File Transfer Made Easy

Even for the first-time beginner, an FTP account is extremely easy to use. With a simple drag-and-drop procedure, you can easily transfer information without worry. If your company delivers files or CDs to your clients on a consistent basis, FTP sites will:

    * Ensure immediate access to new information
    * Eliminate the need for shipping / delivery costs
    * Give your clients immediate satisfaction and results
    * Remove the fear of a lost shipment with sensitive materials

Our FTP sites can also come equipped with an SSL-encryption code, specifically designed to protect your company’s sensitive information from leaking to the public. Our unique software also enables multiple file transfers without weighing down your networking system. We also provide remote access to all of our FTP accounts for your convenience. This feature is especially important if you realize that crucial information is at a different computer than the one you are currently accessing. With our remote access feature, you can gain the necessary information within minutes.

All you need for a successful and effective FTP account with FTP Today is an Internet location and a computer. It’s that simple. Find the FTP -- or File Transfer Protocol -- system that will work best with your corporate situation now.

Top Features Exclusive to FTP Today
SAS 70 Certified Security

FTP Today's FTP hosting data center has been independently certifed with SAS 70 Type II certification. A SAS 70 audit includes the controls and processes involved in storing, handling and transmitting data securely. Controls may include firewall configuration, database access, data transmissions, backup/recovery, and security.

Unlimited Transfer

No monthly limits. No unplanned fees. Flat rate pricing you can bank on. FTP Today allows you unlimited transfer (bandwidth usage, or the total of all your file transfers in and out) each and every month.  You can turn over your entire storage limit several times per day if you want.

Web FTP Client

All FTP sites from FTP Today come with our browser-based FTP client so your end users can log in and manage files without the need for third party FTP software. Our Web FTP Client is straightforward and easy to use. Users love the drag-and-drop simplicity for either uploading or downloading files. You can drag entire folders, individual files or multiple files using the familiar SHIFT or CTRL keys. There are also right-click functions as well as onscreen function buttons and help documentation.

Dedicated IP Address

Every FTP site on the Internet has an IP address assigned to it. The IP address is the real address of an FTP site or FTP server. With FTP Today, every site we host has a dedicated IP address. This means that your site is the only one on the internet using that unique IP number. There are many advantages to using a dedicated IP address versus a shared IP address.

Server Virtualization

FTP Today uses OS virtualization. This method of virtualization creates isolated partitions, or virtual environments (VEs) on a single physical server. A VE is a tightly isolated container that runs its own FTP server application as if it were a physical computer. While VEs can share the physical resources of a single computer, they remain completely isolated from each other as if they were separate physical machines. Isolation is an important reason why the availability and security of hosting FTP servers running in a virtual environment (as with FTP Today) is far superior to FTP hosts running  in a traditional, non-virtualized system (as with our competitors).

Isolation by User ID

Every user has a unique Home Directory (virtual root). upon login, each user is automatically taken directly to their home directory. That home directory is a Private FTP Folder Jail from which they can not escape. So, once logged in, they only have access to the files or subdirectories that you want them to see.

Simultaneous Logins

FTP Today has a rubust infrastructure that can handle many simultaneous connections, so we don't limit you in any way. You can have an unlimited number of simultaneous logged-in users without any degradation of performance.

IP Filtering Firewall

This feature allows FTP Today to globally block un-encrypted access to your encryted FTP site and thereby enforce security compliance amoung your users. IP filtering also allows you to control and limit access by IP address, thereby completely denying the ability to even attempt connection or login globally, except to those you trust (who have static IP addresses).You can allow or restrict an IP address to all services of an account or to a specific service (HTTP, FTP, FTPS). This feature is an FTP Today exclusive.

More Included Site Features
Super-user account

Your FTP site will have a master account that serves two purposes, site management and file management. First, the master account will be your login id and password for site management. Second, your master account is a super-user FTP account, so when you establish an FTP connection with those credentials you will be able to get to all files and folder on the system, for all users that you have created. You then have full read-write-delete privileges over everything.

Web Management

Simple to setup and manage. Easy to use. All you need is Internet access and your web browser. You'll never need to contact FTP Today Support to manage your users and their passwords, view and set quota limits, access FTP logs or FTP site statistics... even reboot.

Individual Quota Limits

Worried that one user might monopolize your entire FTP site storage limit? There is nothing to worry about. FTP Today allows you to set individual disk space quotas on each user or just some users.

Unrestricted File Sizes

Did you know that most computer operating systems have a file size limit of 2 GB? This is true of Windows systems as well as most Unix or Linux systems by default. Unlike the competition that has a 2 GB file size limit, FTP Today's systems have been specially configured to handle any size file. There is no technical file size limit on any of our FTP servers.

Standards Compatible

FTP Today uses industry-standard server applications that guarantee full compatibility. Whether you choose our standard FTP protocol... whether you make use of available add-ons such as SSL encryption... whether you use your web browser or some other FTP client software, you can rest assured that your FTP Today FTP site will be totally compatible.

Resume Broken Transfers

Sometimes, no matter how much we like to think that the entire world wide Internet is 100% reliable, something can go wrong with your ISP or some intermediary that can cause a connection to drop in the middle of a large file transfer. Some FTP services will force you to re-start your broken transfers at the beginning. FTP Today allows you to resume broken transfers at the point where it left off, saving you lots of time and frustration in the event your upload or download was interrupted.

Features pertaining to Service Levels
100-megabit Throughput

Each FTP Today server is connected to our Cisco-powered network via a 100 megabit switch port. From there our FTP hosting network is unparalleled in the FTP hosting industry, featuring multi-homed bandwidth with multiple gigabit connections to over 40 networks. We route traffic over major first-tier web hosting service backbone networks such as UUNet/MCI, Level 3, NTT/Verio, and AboveNet, with no low-quality bandwidth and plenty of network capacity for maximum reliability and scalability.

99.9 Percent Uptime

We are so confident that we are giving you the most robust and reliable FTP service in the industry that we guarantee you that your FTP site will be up and running at least 99.9% of the time. That's potential down time of only 43 minutes per month!

30-minute Activation

Start setting up and using your FTP site today... in less than half an hour! Our crack installation team will validate your order, review it for correctness and configure it for immediate use... all within a 30-minute window.

Real-time Provisioning

Dynamic hosting-automation systems allows for instantaneous upgrades or downgrades without taking your FTP site offline. In the time it takes to click a mouse button, FTP Today can scale your FTP site from a Small Business plan with as little as 200 MB of space all the way to a Large Business 20 GB plan.

Knowledgeable Support

We understand the frustrations people can have when they are forced to deal with technical support that is outsourced overseas. Though they may be "educated", using cheap labor who work off written scripts is not our idea of support. If you or your end users need help, our 100% U.S.-based staff is just a toll-free phone call away.

RAID5 Storage Systems

FTP Today builds every server with a minimum of 5 high performance hard disks in a RAID-5 configuraion (the number 5 is not because we use 5 disks). RAID-5 stripes data at the block level and also utilizes parity. With the RAID-5 technology, user information and parity are combined on every disk in the array. Independent and/or parallel data read and write operations are performed.

Nightly Data Replication

Even though our redundant storage systems offer protection from system failures, FTP Today does not stop there. Just in case a server has a more serious failure than reduncancy already protects, every FTP server is further protected by a nightly file system replication.
