Email is the most popular service in a business environment.

However, it comes with a few inconveniences for content delivery

when dealing with large size file attachments as it requires a lot of

bandwidth and server loading with the exchange of a huge

volume of attachments. The FileCruiser Outlook plug-in generates a link that can be used instead of email attachments. • Mail Link: Users just select the file or folder in FileCruiser and

the Share Link will be added into the email automatically.

• Mail Convert: Auto convert all attached files you received from

others into links before you forward the mail.

Share Link and Search

FTP is the most common way to share files to external

organizations. However, users need to manage accounts

and to install client software even to only share content one

time. Share Link provides the easiest way to share your files. • Share Link with expiry date

• Passwords protect data from unauthorized sharing

• Download count lets users know how many users have

downloaded the linked file
