Welcome

The Web Client in GoAnywhere Managed File Transfer provides you with the ability to perform multiple types of file transfers and file sharing through your browser. No additional software is required on your computer, and all popular browsers are supported including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Chrome.

The file transfer modules provided within the Web Client are named Files, GoDrive, Mail, and Forms, which are described below.

Files Feature

The Files feature provides browser access to authorized files and folders on the server. Files can be transferred quickly between the desktop and server over HTTPS protocol. Since files are stored on a standard file system, they can be directly accessed by backend applications and programs. Files provide the following features for users:

• Access files and folders on the server through an intuitive browser interface.
• Drag-and-drop one or more files and folders to the side menu to move, copy to GoDrive, or send as Mail attachments.
• Drag-and-drop files and folders from the desktop to the server to upload them (when dragging a folder on to the page, the folder's directory structure will be flattened).
• Use the optional Java Applet to transfer files and folders through a split-page interface. Includes progress monitors and the ability to resume any failed transfers.
• Send download-only links through the optional Mail module.
• Copy files from Web Client Files to GoDrive.

GoDrive Features

GoDrive is a secure file system that provides Enterprise File Synchronization and Sharing (EFSS) services for authorized users. With GoDrive, files and folders can be easily shared between users with advanced collaboration features including file revision tracking, commenting, trash bin, media viewing, and more. GoDrive applications available on Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS can be used to synchronize files locally to the devices. GoDrive provides the following features for users:

• Access files and folders on GoDrive through an intuitive browser interface.
• Drag-and-drop one or more files and folders to the side menu to move, copy to Files, or send as Mail attachments.
• Drag-and-drop files and folders from the desktop to the GoDrive server to upload them.
• Synchronize files with Windows, Apple OS X, iOS, and Android devices.
• Share files and folders with other users.
• Specify granular permissions (e.g. read only, edit, etc.) for shared folders and files.
• Receive automatic email notifications when shared folders and files are accessed by others.
• View images and PDF files through the browser using the Media Viewer.
• Add comments to files and folders.
• Search for files or folders.
• Keep file revisions, with the ability to restore previous versions.
• Lock files to temporarily restrict access.
• Restore files from the Trash Bin.
• Send download-only links through the optional Mail module.
• Copy files from GoDrive to Files.

Mail Features

Mail allows authorized users to send messages and files as secure "Packages" on an ad-hoc basis. Recipients will get an email with a unique link to each package, allowing them to download the message and files through a secure HTTPS connection. This is a great alternative to regular email since there are no file size or file type restrictions. Mail provides the following features for users:

• Send sensitive messages and files to one or more recipients as a secure Package.
• Attach multiple files with no size limits.
• Set expiration dates and maximum downloads.
• Optionally password-protect Packages.
• Request files from one or more email recipients.
• Optionally receive email notifications when Packages are opened by recipients.
• View audit trails of all activity.
• Receive reply messages with attachments from your recipients.

• A Secure Mail plugin for Outlook^® is available for sending mail directly from the Outlook Compose page.
