Software tool developer michaels, ross & cole ltd. (mrc) has announced new upload capabilities for m-Power, its development software tool suite for modernization and rapid creation of custom business Web applications. Using this new feature, m-Power users can create applications that will upload files directly to their server.
"We are excited to provide this functionality to our customers," says Brian Crowley, mrc's director of Development. "Uploading eliminates the need for inferior file transfer options, such as email. Even though email is the most common file transfer option, it is not secure and usually comes with size restrictions. m-Power users can now bypass the hassles of email attachments and quickly build upload functionality directly into their applications."
Here are some examples of how uploading could be used:
· An automobile insurer could allow customers to upload photos and claims documents electronically, taking much of the hassle out of filing a claim.
· A magazine could let advertisers upload their art work online instead of using email or CDs shipped through regular mail.
· A shipping company could let their customers upload pictures of damaged shipments, allowing them to handle any problems quickly.
"The possibilities are really very wide," adds Crowley. "As our customer base spans many industries, we are interested to see the different ways this new functionality will be used."
