    Why The Best Hosted FTP Solutions are Highly Scalable

    One of the most difficult aspects of keeping up with modern technology is the break-neck pace at which it continues to evolve. You invest a huge sum of money in the "latest and greatest" in January, only to find those resources woefully obsolete come July. Almost as bad is the amount of guesswork involved - you may think you need X number of solid state drives for storage, but what if you're wrong?

    If you end up buying too many, you've just spent a great deal of money on resources you'll never fully utilize.

    This lack of scalability is one of the very reasons why FTP solutions are so popular with so many different industries. Highly scalable hosted FTP solutions like Sharetru give you the competitive advantage you need and the return on investment you deserve at the same time.

    The Benefits of Highly Scalable Hosted FTP Solutions

    One of the core benefits you receive from a highly scalable FTP solution like Sharetru is unlimited bandwidth. With certain file sharing providers, you may have unrestricted speeds to a point and then a throttled, slower connection once you reach your monthly limit. Sharetru, on the other hand, gives you unrestricted access to not only all of the bandwidth your users will ever need. Sharetru’s infrastructure offers an unthrottled 1 gigabit of throughput from the inside out and the outside in -- at all times.

     

    Another core benefit of highly scalable FTP solutions is the unlimited number of connections that you can use. Regardless of how many employees you have or how many users you need to create accounts for, you aren't forced to always keep watch over how you're using your service at any given moment. There is no limit whatsoever to how many connections you can have, how many threads can be open simultaneously and more.

    Perhaps the most important benefit of a highly scalable FTP solution, however, is that there are no file size limits like you run into with a wide range of other services. Even email often caps the total file size of a single file at 25MB, which can make things exceedingly difficult for you and your team more often than not. With FTP providers like Sharetru there are no file size limits and you can use it however you want, whenever you want, no exceptions.

    Finally, highly scalable hosted FTP solutions also give you the benefit of live upgrades. Any time you need to make a change to your service to add or remove storage or software features, you can do so without ever taking your FTP site offline for even a second.
