File sharing across the Web gets even easier – #Startups

file sharing across InternetIf you’ve ever needed to send large files over the Internet, you would know how difficult this often is – sometimes half the file uploads, only to halt. Which means you’ve got to start over, losing all the data you’ve used thus far. Another factor which irritates is that there’s no method of validating whether or not a person you’ve sent a file to has received it until they send you a confirmation email. Images, videos, zipped work-related folders, could all amount to heavy transfers, which could end in frustration, & a ’no-send’ result. Clearly, there’s a need for a file protocol that could handle transfers smoothly & effectively.

With these issues in mind startup SurgeSend has built a robust system for sharing files. This Online application has several built-in intelligent problem tackling solutions – such as pause-and-resume, if data availability cuts off.  It does not let turbulent Internet connectivity, device switching, & other interruptions to get in the way.

An easy to use UI offers a clearly marked form for uploading data of up to 100GB in size.

Here’s how it works: 

  1. Browse for file, image or document, or take a ‘live’ camera image to send
  2. Enter sender address
  3. Enter recipient’s address
  4. Select expiry date
  5. Select ’Surge Access’- a public download link, or ’Surge Send’ – a multiple recipient option, which performs a torrent download
  6. Send
  7. Await confirmation of receipt

There’s no need to register, or sign up to use Surgesend’s basic service. Other,  ’high-end’ services such as file encryption, file storage & bigger upload sizes are available with SurgeSend’s,  Surge Pro, & Surge Security packages.

SurgeSend guarantees total file & transfer privacy, with a promise of  ’track-and trace’, deletion on completion of transfer.

SurgeSend’s drag-and-drop interface allows for fast file addition, while their add-on message option ensures personalization. So, now, next time you need to transfer a file, perhaps it would be beneficial to checkout SurgeSends transfer options.
