IBM Add-in for Microsoft Outlook

Enables Microsoft Outlook to quickly deliver virtually unlimited-size file attachments

IBM® Aspera® Add-in for Microsoft Outlook enables you to send virtually unlimited-size file attachments within the usual Outlook workflow with no additional software installed on the Microsoft Exchange Server. This add-in uses IBM Aspera faspex™ to provide global person-to-person file delivery capabilities that are built on the patented Fast, Adaptive and Secure Protocol (FASP®) transfer technology. Aspera Add-in for Microsoft Outlook removes Outlook file attachment size limitations and delivers maximum data transfer throughput, independent of distance and network conditions.
