ALISO VIEJO, CA--(Marketwired - Aug 28, 2014) - Smith Micro Software, Inc . (
StuffIt provides best-in-class, patented compression methods for pixel-perfect compression of image files, audio files, PDFs and more. StuffIt works with virtually all file types and compression formats to ensure that photos, music, videos, PowerPoint presentations and other large files are shared or stored securely for personal or professional needs. And now, StuffIt Deluxe 16 eliminates the manual burden of sharing files by automatically uploading them directly to the user's favorite cloud-based file transfer account via a new StuffIt Destinations feature.
Creative professionals such as advertising executives, graphic designers and photographers can use StuffIt to prevent lengthy delays in sending large files, reduce the risk of losing valuable information, and ensure confidential data is protected. For independent contractors and small firms, bandwidth is an important cost element that drives the economics of their businesses. A 30 percent reduction in package size results in significant bandwidth savings. StuffIt uses exclusive, patent-protected technology to compress images to the minimum possible size without losing a single pixel of data. For professionals and hobbyists alike, using StuffIt means you don't have to sacrifice image quality, delivery speed and secure storage to manage electronic files cost-effectively.
"Over the past 20 years, Smith Micro has evolved StuffIt into the most advanced compression and encryption solution on the market," said Fahim Niaz, Senior Product Manager. "Our latest Cloud Services Integration enhancement provides fast, secure file transfer to make collaboration and commerce easy and reliable for creative professionals."
