Email is the leading communication platform in the world, we use it every single day for sharing information. Outlook is our main tool for sending documents. This operation, which seems very simple, has a lot of conditions in the background. The first is size limitation – usually it is a problem to send a document bigger than 10MB. |

Sending huge files via email is also the Exchange administrator’s nightmare, as the files are stored in the Exchange databases in multiple copies, taking up a lot of space. Mailbox quotas are reached very fast. Some are uploading files to Dropbox or OneDrive, which might solve the space problem, but it’s still not the perfect solution. Another issue is security. You have no overview of who was opening the document you sent, and whether it was forwarded or not.
officeGATE, together with contentACCESS, offers you a solution for this problem, which guarantees you secure handling and storing of your files. All contentACCESS users gain access to a special folder called “My shares”, which is accessible under contentACCESS’ “Sharing” in the officeGATE pane. When uploading a file to the “My shares” folder, the application automatically generates a link pointing to the file and the user can send this link to other users. |
