End-users and clients can access MOVEit from a variety of interfaces and protocols. The protocols you can designate include HTTPS, FTP over SSL, and FTP over SSH.

Tip: System integrators and automators can also access MOVEit Transfer using MOVEit Automation or by using the MOVEit Transfer RESTful, Java, or .NET APIs.

Web UI

The built-in web interface (referred to as "WebUI") provides access to registered or guest users (if so configured) with a web browser. (See the Release Notes for a list of supported browsers.) Authorized administrators can configure the MOVEit server from authorized locations while customers and partners use a portal to move files in and out of the MOVEit system.

Other Clients and Sync Utilities

A secure FTP interface is also available on the MOVEit server for people or programs with secure FTP clients. The MOVEit family offers a script-ready command-line client, MOVEit Xfer (HTTPS), which supports file integrity checking. Progress Software Corporation also offers WS_FTP Professional, a Windows file transfer client with a robust feature set, which also supports file integrity checking. Many third-party companies manufacture secure FTP clients for desktops and servers that also interface with the MOVEit secure FTP over SSL and FTP over SSH servers.

For IT departments that want more control over the MOVEit environment than the FTP protocol can provide, the MOVEit API provides access to and control of MOVEit (for Windows) or Java classes (for UNIX, Linux, Windows, IBM, and more). MOVEit API also supports file transfers with full integrity checking and ships with several command-line utilities.

MOVEit EZ provides desktop-to-server automation and the ability to access MOVEit as a local folder. MOVEit EZ is a tray icon application that synchronizes content between a user's desktop and MOVEit, and schedules transfers. It is useful for environments that want desktop-to-server automation or the ability to access MOVEit as a local folder

MOVEit supports AS2 and AS3 file transfer when used with MOVEit Automation and the appropriate licensing. (MOVEit can be used as a standalone AS3 server, but without MOVEit Automation it has no way of encrypting or decrypting specific messages.) For more information, see the section titled Advanced Topics.
