Enable New Business Interactions With AS2
When it comes to secure business-to-business (B2B) transmissions, the largest companies and marketplaces in the world insist on the use of AS2.
Not being able to connect with your trading partners using AS2 can limit your business reach and even restrict you to implementations of slow and error prone manual labor processes.
Implementing AS2 opens paths to new business opportunities, especially in supply chain, manufacturing, and logistics areas, where responsiveness and speed is vital.
Delivery Confirmation and Dispute Resolution
AS2 returns a digital receipt, called a Message Disposition Notification, or MDN, that lets you know if your file transfer was delivered successfully or not.
You'll no longer need to call your trading partners to ask them “Did you get my file?”
The MDN digital receipt can be electronically signed by your trading partner, proving its authenticity, and helping with dispute resolution.
Business Document Verification
Incoming files and business documents, such as EDI file types, are encrypted and electronically signed to prove authenticity of both the sender and the recipient.
AS2 can automatically reject files and business documents that fail verification so that invalid or incorrect data doesn’t continue its journey into your systems.
Cloudify Your B2B
The Files.com platform, as a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) cloud-based solution, provides all the benefits you’d expect from a cloud service, including elastic scalability, high availability, disaster recovery, instant availability, carefree maintenance, automatic upgrades, and built-in security.
Apply all these benefits of the cloud to your Business-to-Business (B2B) transactions by implementing AS2 with Files.com.
Integrated With Other Files.com Features
In these days of consolidation and streamlining of business systems, it helps when a single solution can perform multiple functions or fulfill multiple business needs.
The Files.com platform is designed for flexibility, integration, and automation. AS2 can be used in conjunction with our other features, allowing you to build integration workflows to meet your needs.
- Combine AS2 with connectivity for SFTP, FTP, WebDAV, web portal, web inbox, and API to provide ubiquitous connection options for your systems and users.
- Combine AS2 with our RESTful APIs to automate trading partner onboarding or to upload and download AS2 payloads via API.
- Combine AS2 with webhooks, email, and Amazon SNS (Simple Notification Service), to deliver real-time notifications to systems, staff, or mobile apps.
- Combine AS2 with cloud storage, such as Amazon S3, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, to pick up and deliver your AS2 payloads to your cloud applications and systems. Data can be transferred automatically in real time, or on a scheduled basis, as needed.
- Combine AS2 with automation workflows so that payloads can be moved and copied across the Files.com ecosystem as needed.
- Combine AS2 with our system integrations so that AS2 payloads can be delivered to, or picked up from, Microsoft SharePoint, Zapier, Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, Microsoft OneDrive, or any SFTP or FTP compatible system.
