Payment gateway sends us a confirmation of a successful transaction.

You purchase a plan using the payment gateway.

What happens after making a purchase? Is a license code sent? Here is what happens behind the scenes:.

For example, if your account id is and you are purchasing for yourself then enter However, if you are purchasing for then enter Binfer account email can be different from the PayPal account email.

You can purchase it on behalf of another account.

Recipients do not have to purchase a plan to receive files.

Your purchase increases the amount of data you can transfer and adds additional features based on the plan you choose.

How do these plans work? Binfer licenses are similar to most subscription services.

The main idea is to encrypt the file transfer connection between yourself (client) and the website (server). I think you have a lot of FTP alternatives. Use Microsoft Exchange Server with Public Folders. You could share these files using FTP over SSL functionality described above for people who want to continue using FTP style communication. Take a look at Sharepoint Services 3.0 and Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server 2007 if you want the ability to access a document library as a file share (no need to upload files in a web interface). This allows you to share files in a web interface, secured using HTTP over SSL (HTTPS). Use document libraries in Sharepoint Services or Sharepoint Server. WebDAV enables file manipulation through a web interface, secured using HTTP over SSL (HTTPS). Use the WebDAV extensions to Windows Server 2008 to enable document exchange in Internet Information Server. Use FTP over SSL (FTPS) functionality of the FTP7 server from Internet Information Server and Windows Server 2008.

On the Microsoft side here are a few options. But I suppose an alternative to FTP would be a managed file transfer service, such as MFT from or using a web server with SSL where you upload files through a web form submission. You need a client on your machine like SecureCRT from VanDyke Software (or VShell, or SecureFX, etc) that will allow you to make the secure connection to the remote server for file transfer. My question is, if I can’t use FTP to transfer the files, what AM I supposed to use? Often times I get told that I should not use a FTP program to transfer files from and to a server. I guess it will take time to change the mindset from client server to direct p2p. These days with high speed networks and powerful computers, this new solution works well, at least for me. With FTP you have open a port on your firewall, secure it, manage users etc.įTP was created in the yesteryears because the model was client server.

It creates a direct VPN type connection between two end points, and xfers with 128bit AES encryption, which imho is more secure than running a FTP server. I did a quick wireshark test and didnt see any conenctions to random PC’s. Search on google for “java security issues”, you wont find any, then search for “ftp security issues” and you will see that FTP is way insecure.įrom my understanding, Binfer does not connect to any file sharing network such as torrent. It then boils down to which one is least risky :). See, anytime you are online, your computer is open and you are exposed to risks. Call me Mr Paranoid if you like but thats just my opinion. I dont feel overly comfortable opening my computer up to a Java application that connects to a file sharing network. I really dont see that as being a viable alternative to FTP/SFTP.
