Announcing MOVEit 2018®, With Secure Folder Sharing Collaboration

We're excited to announce the latest version of our managed file transfer (MFT) solution,  MOVEit 2018!

If you're an IT pro, you've probably already heard of MOVEit. It's used by thousands of organizations worldwide to provide security, traceability and control over business critical-file transfer activities, and now, with MOVEit 2018, we're addressing the need for enhanced security when enterprise file sharing involves sensitive data.

With MOVEit 2018, you can drive operating costs to new lows, rollout new data sharing services even faster, and offer highly secure, easy-to-use collaboration capabilities to a broad base of users. 

The new release also includes new REST APIs for MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Automation to allow enhanced integration with third-party services and applications and a new drag-and-drop client for Windows and Mac systems. MOVEit 2018 also extends our SaaS-based MFT solution, MOVEit Cloud, to the European Union (EU).

Enhanced Interoperability

One of our main goals with MOVEit 2018 was to enhance interoperability with other services and applications. That means more powerful workflows, and minimizing manual efforts and development time. MOVEit 2018's new integration capabilities, including inbound REST APIs for performing administrative tasks of MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Automation, will help IT teams develop more powerful workflows faster. Whil outbound REST APIs now allow MOVEit Automation to easily integrate with third-party applications. PowerShell scripting has also been added to MOVEit Automation. This allows customers to use powerful scripting tools, seamlessly integrated into their MOVEit Automation tasks. PowerShell can also be used to perform general administrative tasks. MOVEit Automation can also now access Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) buckets as native hosts, allowing the use of cloud storage as either the source or destination for transfers.

Secure Folder Sharing

To address the risk of a data breach through the unauthorized use of email, consumer-grade file sharing solutions to transmit sensitive data, MOVEit 2018 features a new Secure Folder Sharing capability and an easy-to-use desktop client. This new functionality will let IT groups extend the adoption of secure managed file transfer to a broad base of end users through a convenient, easy-to-use file sharing and collaboration capability that assures data security, visibility and audit trails. The new Windows and Mac compatible drag-and-drop MOVEit Client enables encrypted, centrally tracked ad hoc transfer capabilities to all users with zero training.

MOVEit Cloud Expanded to the EU

In conjunction with the release of MOVEit 2018,  Ipswitch has also extended our MFT-as-a-service offering, MOVEit Cloud, to the EU, enabling an additional General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) ready deployment possibility to EU-based customers. Ipswitch has established primary and secondary MOVEit Cloud datacenters on Microsoft Azure public cloud sites located in the EU. Customers can take advantage of the flexibility and OPEX budgeting benefits provided by the cloud without sacrificing any of the security and reliability of MOVEit Transfer.

Tens of thousands of IT pros, just like you, love MOVEit. You can see why for yourself by downloading a trial.
