ZFT supplies software for your computers free of charge. ZFT will work with you to test the operation and costing of using the service to transfer your files before you commit to using the system. No, ZFT operates over conventional telephone lines and existing modems. With ZFT you never need to set your computer for incoming calls - your computer fetches data when convenient for the operator or application. Your files are compressed prior to transmission to minimise your telephone access time.
Received files are automatically de-compressed.
No external software is required for compression. The ZFT software gives you a positive confirmation that your file has been successfully delivered to the ZFT hub. Further information is available to verify that your recipient has received the file. ZFT uses highly robust error checking and recovery techniques to ensure that your data is always intact. With ZFT your data does not run through the Internet or data networks, which may be accessible to the ill-intentioned.
