Who Uses FileCatalyst?

Since FileCatalyst can move massive file sizes in any format (at full line speed) and is optimised for file transfer over great distances, greatly improving global collaboration, it is the perfect fit for a number of industries that need to utilise its unique features.
Read more about how FileCatalyst is revolutionising data transfer below:

 

Film Studios

Whether filming in a studio, about town or in an exotic location, production teams need to be able to send very large raw video files to their editors, no matter where they are in the world. 
 
A solution needs to be reliable, and file transfers are time-sensitive. Slow or unreliable file transfer is just not an option, as it could potentially cost millions. 
 
With this in mind, many film studios have turned to FileCatalyst as their go-to file transfer solution.

Video Game Studios

FileCatalyst is used by major video game publishers and studios to massively increase the transfer of important data, such as creative assets or fully interactive 3D environments, for review, collaboration or feedback.
 
In one example, a game studio was able to decrease its file transfer times by over 95%, enjoying the unique FileCatalyst benefit of moving data at full line speed.

What Makes FileCatalyst Unique?

FileCatalyst uses a proprietary UDP based protocol for file transfer, and also borrows concepts from FTP and TFTP protocols. 

FileCatalyst vs FTP

FileCatalyst uses a TCP Control connection just like FTP, but the data is sent via UDP to provide acceleration and immunity to latency and packet loss on a network. FileCatalyst uses SSL for control connection and AES for UDP data transfers.

FileCatalyst vs TFTP

Unlike TFTP, FileCatalyst sends many blocks of data at once to maximize bandwidth. It also incorporates many custom commands for dynamic bandwidth control, checkpoint restarting, MD5 checksum verification, compression, file attributes transmission and sending many small files over a single data channel by auto archiving small files into a single archive. FileCatalyst was designed for bulk data transfer and bandwidth optimization over long distance networks.
