Takeaway: Let’s face it—dealing with large files and getting them from one place to another can be a real headache. Whether it’s client documents, consultant data, or opposing counsel files, you need a quick, secure, and hassle-free solution. That’s precisely what GoldFynch’s FTP Upload Service delivers. It’s an easy-to-use tool that lets your collaborators securely upload files to your case without overcomplicating things and, most importantly, without granting access to sensitive case data.

What is GoldFynch’s FTP upload service?

GoldFynch’s FTP upload service is all about making your life easier. It’s a safe and straightforward way to handle file uploads from clients, consultants, and opposing counsel. The best part? They don’t need access to your case to upload files; so they won’t have access to sensitive data. Using FTP (File Transfer Protocol)—a tried-and-true way to transfer files over the internet—you and anyone you authorize can upload large files securely. Tools like Filezilla make the process familiar and straightforward. You don’t need to be a tech wizard to use it!

Compatibility: Supports all major FTP clients like Filezilla, ensuring a smooth and familiar experience.

Case study: Data collection made easier

A law firm was handling a tricky case requiring collecting over 50GB of data from a client and a digital forensics consultant without granting access to their notes and sensitive information. The client wasn’t tech-savvy, and the consultant worked from another state. Normally, this would’ve been a logistical nightmare. But with GoldFynch’s FTP upload service, here’s what they did:

Sent the client and consultant simple FTP instructions.
They both used Filezilla to upload their files directly to the case—no case access required.
The client and consultant uploaded the data securely, and the GoldFynch app organized it automatically.

The result? There was no stress or delay, and all the data was ready for processing in record time. That is how eDiscovery should be—streamlined and simple.
