Macintosh utility that enables users to easily set up customized and<br />
automated file management, communications and Internet-related tasks. Using<br />
26 customizable actions, or "steps," users can create customized drop boxes<br />
that perform a wide range of automated tasks, such as file compression,<br />
FTP, Web, and e-mail transfers, as well as the ability to display custom<br />
alert dialogs, text messages, sounds, pictures, and even QuickTime movies.</p>
<p>With Aladdin Transporter, activities that require multiple steps in several<br />
applications can be accomplished with a single drag and drop action. A<br />
Transporter drop box can replace simple tasks, such as sending files via<br />
email, or more complex ones, such as Stuffing files, uploading them to a<br />
password protected FTP site, and then sending out a notification via<br />
e-mail. The power of Transporter is that it allows users to create<br />
personalized solutions that are tailored for their specific needs.</p>
<p>Not only does Transporter allow users to create drop box applications to<br />
automate personalized tasks, but they can also send their customized drop<br />
boxes to friends, family, co-workers, and customers. For those working in<br />
environments that require interaction and the exchange of data and files<br />
with a large number of inexperienced users, a Transporter drop box can<br />
provide a way to guarantee error-free transfers every time.</p>
<p>"If your business relies on the ability to communicate effectively with<br />
your customers, then Aladdin Transporter should be the core of your<br />
communication strategy," said Matthew Covington, Product Manager for<br />
Aladdin Transporter. "Building your clients customized Transporter drop<br />
boxes makes it easy for them to communicate, exchange files, and do<br />
business with you. Anyone who can drag a file onto an icon can use a<br />
Transporter drop box."</p>
<p>Aladdin Transporter can also help users set up document distribution<br />
procedures that provide security, legal protection, and other personalized<br />
features. With Aladdin Transporter users can password-protect drop boxes,<br />
require recipients to agree to a license agreement before accessing a<br />
download site, and enable a recipient to download a file from a password<br />
protected FTP site without having to reveal passwords to them.</p>
<p>Who will benefit from using Aladdin Transporter?</p>
<p>-- IT managers: Transporter gives IT managers the power to create custom<br />
drop box solutions that automate virtually any file transfer or<br />
communications task. Transporter can be deployed to distribute files among<br />
specific groups within the enterprise, or communicate with outside vendors.<br />
By leveraging the distribution features of Transporter drop boxes, IT staff<br />
can reduce user errors and eliminate support time.</p>
<p>-- Service Bureaus: A Transporter drop box allows customers to compress and<br />
upload files to an FTP server with a single drag and drop action. You can<br />
use Transporter's text dialogs to communicate guidelines, policies, or even<br />
require acknowledgment to terms of agreement prior to uploading files.<br />
Password features allow businesses to have customers upload files to a<br />
password-protected directory without revealing the password.</p>
<p>-- Educators: Aladdin Transporter makes it easy to distribute and receive<br />
assignments; a single drop box allows teachers to distribute projects to<br />
every class member, and a drop box for each student will allow them to<br />
return a class project. A Transporter drop box can automatically be<br />
configured to download the latest available file, removing the possibility<br />
that the student might download the wrong version by mistake.</p>
<p>-- Web Masters: Aladdin Transporter includes a powerful set of FTP-related<br />
features that allow Web masters to create custom drop box applications with<br />
embedded FTP technology that automates the task of uploading files. Once a<br />
drop box has been configured, a single drag and drop action can encode and<br />
compress a group of files, log into a password protected FTP site, and<br />
upload files to a specified directory. Web masters can even have the drop<br />
box launch the page URL when the file transfer has been completed.</p>
<p>-- Tech Support Departments: Requiring users to submit tech support<br />
questions via a Transporter drop box can help to reduce the number of back<br />
and forth correspondence by requiring customers to fill out questions in an<br />
e-mail form, before sending a message. A Transporter e-mail form can<br />
comprise of any combination of text entry fields, pop-up menus, or check<br />
boxes. Users control how data is presented in the e-mail making integration<br />
of e-mail messages with an existing contact database easy.</p>
