About Product 
Available on the Salesforce® AppExchange Secure File Transfer for Salesforce® provides flexibility for your Salesforce data storage requirements saving your organisation time and money.
FTP2SF utilises AWS Lambda Functions and API gateway operating within public cloud or within your own private cloud to support the necessary translation of webservice calls to the underlying FTP, SFTP or HTTPS calls for the various platforms that FTP2SF supports.
We use a standard set of commands, familiar to developers across all platforms. The configuration, including login information, is stored within your Salesforce instance and encrypted.
This gives you the ability to maintain credentials without impacting your APEX code.
Configuration is simple and the flexibility that FTP2SF introduces allows any use case where remote data storage or access is required.

Security
- We take data security seriously. FTP2SF uses encryption protocols to ensure the secure transfer of data between Salesforce and the destination server. We cannot access or read the data during or after the transfer due to this encryption.
- The sites/services used are clients own, established and controlled by the client (e.g your own FTP Server, Azure Bob, AWS S3 Bucket or DropBox). Access to these services is provided only for the duration of an operation.
- We do not provide a file storage solution and comply with GDPR standards as a file transmission service (not storage). Our services operate for the duration of the request/response and there is no data storage at rest.
- Data Transmission is provided by Salesforce utilising HyperForce (Salesforce on AWS) services and by AWS, connecting to the required service from a nominated Region and static IP Address.

Pricing
- The good news is that for many of our clients, storage savings alone cover the product license cost! Finance teams love us!
- We charge on a per company / Instance basis. Three tiers of pricing, depending on the size of the company (# of Salesforce licences in the instance)
- Licenses 1 - 50 - $99 USD per month (charged annually $1188)*.
- Licenses 51- 200 - $199 USD per month (charged annually $2388)*.
- Licenses 201+ - $299 USD per month (charged annually $3588)*.
- We provide free support for the first 30 days (limited to 2 x 1 hour sessions). Rates for any additional support or customization are $100 USD per hour.
- Data Pricing: The monthly license is inclusive of data up/down to 10GB inclusive. Any data over 10GB will be charged on a calendar month basis at a rate of 10c per additional GB.
- Up to 10GB per month - $ no cost.
- Each additional 1GB - 10c USD each.
- The vast majority of clients do not pay excess data since they do not reach or exceed 10GB per month. With that said, the FTP2SF is robust and performative. We have clients transmitting in excess of 3 Terrabytes per month.
- Data Storage Comparison - Significant Savings: Salesforce® typically charges $125 per month for 500mb of additional storage data (using FTP2SF this is reduced to 20c). For 2020mb, a business could pay $500+ to store a single month’s worth of data (using FTP2SF this is reduced to 20c + your normal cost for supporting your own FTP, SFTP, S3, Azure Blob infrastructure).
