“Couchdrop takes a legacy method of transfering files and puts a modern spin on it. I love how I can literally put an SFTP front end on basically ANY cloud storage platform. ”
“Couchdrop integrates seamlessly with our own cloud storage provider, creating instant efficiency gains for our internal employees while simultaneously making uploads simple & easy, with full security for our clients.”
“Couchdrop is very easy to setup and maintain. The solution just works. Once you hooked up your cloud storage and mounted it to an endpoint, all you need to do is give access to your SFTP users within the interface. That's it. You're done.”
“Couchdrop gives us the flexibility to use whatever back-end storage provider that we want. For example, we are using an S3-based service with immutability turned on, so we can support legacy protocols with the latest in data protection.”
“Couchdrop allows our newer tech stack based on real-time events to work with our customer's older tech stacks that are dependent on SFTP. Additionally, it's great that I don't have to manage an SFTP server, SSH keys, and training of our teams to interact with data we receive from our customers.”
