GLOBALedit Announces The Launch of FileSociety

The revolutionary web service that allows professionals to manage and transfer large files up to 100 times faster than FTP.

NEW YORK, NY, February 10, 2009 –Today GLOBALedit®, the leader in online workflow software officially launched a break-through service called FileSociety™ that is changing the way large digital files are transported around the world. Replacing outdated methods such as FTP and DVD shipping, GLOBALedit® designed FileSociety™ for professionals looking for faster, greener and smarter tools to collaborate and share files.
 
FileSociety™ was designed and developed for demanding, file-based workflows such as film, photo and audio production, advertising and marketing, publishing, printing, research and medical, architecture, retail and event production. FileSociety™ is the remedy for archaic, slow and insecure FTP, costly shipping services. This innovative web service transports huge files such as video, graphics, digital images, and schematics with blazing speed from any web browser.

FileSociety™ is a new service powered by Aspera’s next-generation fasp™ transport technology for high-performance file transfer up to 100 times the speed of FTP. This ‘best-of-breed’ partnership ushers in an efficient new mode of sending digital assets of any size through any network at maximum speed, regardless of conditions or distance with complete security built-in. FileSociety™ is a one of a kind, much anticipated reincarnation of file transfer.

Steve Kalalian, President of GLOBALedit® states, “We’re very excited about building FileSociety™ because it solves so many core problems for our clients in the creative industry as well as other industries that need to send large files quickly and safely over the Internet. Everything is digital, files keep getting bigger, and everyone needs them faster – we built FileSociety™ to give busy professionals the tools to control their files instead of being controlled by them.”

McGraw Hill, Victoria's Secret, Showtime. Pentagram, Saatchi & Saatchi and Warner Brothers are all enthusiastic early adopters of FileSociety™ and are currently sending massive files long distance with the only software service in existence that offers them an unrivaled combination high-speed technology, genius receipt messaging and steadfast security.

Carl Hixson Vice President, Digital Asset Management McGraw-Hill Companies comments, "FileSociety opens entirely new opportunities for our company. A typical layout file that would previously have taken 30 minutes to transfer to a design office in Asia now takes 11 seconds. Multiply this across the volume of files that we move and it's a game changer.  The system is also under the control of our creative staff which gives them the freedom and speed to take control of the production process.  This is an important innovation."

Overnight shipping, unreliable links and expensive plane tickets are passé for smart professionals who now have a handle on ‘heavy lifting’ with FileSociety™.

FileSociety Live Demo at The 2009 AlwaysOn, OnMedia NYC

On Tuesday Feb 3, at 3pm EST Aaron Holm SVP of GlobalEdit ‘hit it out of the park’ when he debuted their break-through high-speed file transfer service, FileSociety™ at The 2009 AlwaysOn, OnMedia NYC CEO Showcase held at The Ritz-Carlton Battery Park in New York City. 
 
OnMedia is where cutting edge technology CEOs from the back streets of Silicon Valley meets the advertising and media establishments.  This two and a half day industry insider event features high-level debates on which forces are disrupting and creating new opportunities in marketing, branding, advertising and public relations. 
 

This conference also showcases 50 influentials and CEO’s who are revolutionizing the way media is being created, distributed and consumed. Aaron Holm was one of those 50 game changers on stage and five minutes into his sleek and well-paced presentation that clearly featured all points on how FTP is an inferior way to send large files Aaron simply stated, “And now I would like to take a moment to demonstrate just how fast FileSociety™ is.” 


Then Aaron swiftly made a few strokes on his laptop and with little effort sent one 10 MB file using FileSociety™ and another using an FTP protocol. The entire crowd leaned forward and even the bloggers covering the conference stopped typing and texting for a few seconds only to let out a collective applause. The contest was all over in 10 short seconds. FileSociety™ had sent the 10MB in 10 seconds flat and the same file that was sent by FTP clocked in at 8 slow minutes. The live demo was a huge eye-opener for the industry experts present at the conference proving that this innovative and new technology makes FTP obsolete for sending big files quickly.
