The MFT Accellion Alternative With No Complicated Setup
Filemail Vs Accellion Overview
As an Accellion alternative, it comes as no surprise that both Accellion and Filemail provide Managed File Transfer (MFT) solutions. However, just like so many other solutions in the file sharing space, Accellion not only provides file transferring capabilities, but also collaboration. We don't. We are completely focused on the transfer of data.
Furthermore, with Filemail, you won’t be put through a long arduous process of configuration, training, and endless upsell. Within a matter of minutes, you can start using Filemail MFT, a full-fledged enterprise grade solution, to send large files, and receive them.

Budget Friendly UDP Transfer Acceleration
TCP based protocols are used by both parties, but when it comes to ultra-fast transfers, Accellion, just like Filemail utilize UDP. Where we differ is our UDP continuously checks various parameters to facilitate optimum routes and will reduce speed if need be to enable other traffic to come and go.
Couple this with AES-256 encryption, error checking and packet resending, you get a cutting-edge UDP solution.
More Storage - Unlimited Bandwidth
Accellion accounts have a storage capacity of only 250 GB. They also have a bandwidth limitation of 500 GB a month. Both storage and capacity can be expanded via hosted deployments only.
At Filemail we put no limitation on the amount of bandwidth you use. When it comes to storage each user under their account has 5 TB of cloud based storage space, with more available on request.
