What is ActiveTransfer Agent?
ActiveTransfer Agent is a light-weight application that helps you automate file transfers from multiple systems throughout your enterprise. These systems can be located remotely or on premise. Operating as the central management hub, an ActiveTransfer Server instance can be used to configure scheduled file transfer events, push the event configurations to the agents, and monitor file transfers that the agents execute.
Typical business scenarios in which ActiveTransfer Agent can be deployed are:
A retail giant that wants to transfer files that include pricing data, coupon information, point-of-sale data, and store inventory from a central system with its various retail outlets.
Large banking organizations that want to share files between the bank’s headquarters and its branches.
An organization that wants to perform file transfers within its internal systems.
