The new StuffIt is radically enhanced. In one simple motion users can compress files and upload them to the cloud. Then a URL is generated so anyone can download the content from the cloud easily and securely. The new Snow Leopard-compatible release includes StuffIt Connect, a new cloud-based file transfer service that lets users share large files without the hassle of email attachments or FTP.
StuffIt continues to provide best-in-class compression technology, and includes Smith Micro’s industry leading patented compression methods designed to provide pixel-perfect compression of image files, audio files, PDFs and Microsoft Office documents. StuffIt works with virtually all files and compression formats, such as zip, to satisfy all users’ personal and professional needs and ensure that all their photos, music, videos, Keynote presentations and other large files are shared or stored securely.
StuffIt Deluxe 2010 eliminates the constraints of email attachments by automatically redirecting large files to the new StuffIt Connect web service. Recipients receive invitations via email that contain a link to the hosted file, which lets them download shared files quickly and easily. Users can access and create invitations to share content from any Internet-connected device, including iPhones and other smartphones. StuffIt Connect protects files with powerful 512bit RC4 encryption technology and offers users the ability to further protect download links with password access to ensure files can only be opened by the intended recipient.
Photographers know that bandwidth is an important cost element that drives the economics of their business, and a 30 percent reduction in the size of the package provided by StuffIt’s patented JPEG compression technology delivers real-time resource savings. StuffIt uses exclusive patent-protected technology to compress images to the minimum possible size without losing a single pixel of data. New StuffIt plug-ins allows users to save time by exporting multiple images from ubiquitous applications, such as iPhoto and Aperture.
