What is Leapfile Managed File Transfer?

LeapFILE in Redwood City, California offers a managed file transfer system.

Categories & Use Cases

LeapFile was a bad leap.

Pros

  • There are 3 ways to use LeapFile: the desktop app, the web app, the Outlook plugin

Cons

  • The interface is almost all text-based with minimal graphics. Because of that it can be difficult for our employees and our clients to quickly decide what action to take to complete their downloads.
  • We have found the admin controls to not work consistently, causing lots of headaches.
  • Some emails sent via the Outlook plugin will cause formatted text to look extremely confusing on the download page that a client must view in order to take an action to retrieve their files. The text shows all the HTML code wrapped around it.
  • Uploads web page will tend to hold a cookie that "remembers" an expired link, causing our clients to receive an error.

Return on Investment

  • Too much time spent on addressing individual client issues while attempting to send or retrieve files.
  • Too much time spent on testing and troubleshooting our employees' issues while attempting to send or retrieve files.
