Ever struggle with sending a document, picture, or even an audio or video file over the Internet? It's a common struggle amongst engineers, architects, medical practitioners, graphic designers, administrative assistants and a multitude of business owners.

Why email doesn't work:
Most files are too large to send via email and the process of compressing them can mean the recipient is unable to open the file or it is corrupted in the compression process. Even compression isn't enough for many files.

Another common complaint with email is that it simply isn't secure. Emails can be intercepted, accidentally sent to the wrong person, or land in a junk mail box and missed all together. Imagine all of your hard work ending up in someone's junk mail box and eventually deleted.

Why digital delivery doesn't work:
Digital delivery, or the process of uploading your document or file to a third party who then makes it available to your recipient or recipients (don't confuse it with FTP).

One of the problems with digital delivery is that the file is only accessed for a limited time, meaning the recipient has to be available to download the file immediately.Not only that, they have to have space on their computer to store it.

If you're sending numerous large files this can be a real problem. Digital delivery can also lack the high level of security required by many individuals and business owners.

Sending confidential and proprietary information, or even patients' medical files, is too important to leave in the hands of a digital courier.
