It can be done through a web portal, or through outlook with a plugin. #### Cons It would be nice if there was a way to access your email from within the web portal for Accellion and not just emails that were sent through it. --- ### Not totally reliable - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Market Research - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: 3-5 years · weekly - Reviewed: January 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Interface is easy to use. Can also send larger files than what Outlook typically allows. #### Cons It does not work consistently. Every now and then and for no rhyme or reason that I can see, desired files will not upload to the email. Then, you can't just attach a file the old-fashioned way and send; you have to start a whole new email. --- ### Kiteworks MFT works as a great tool for sending and keeping files over a secure channel. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Pankaj P. - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: 3-5 years · daily - Reviewed: November 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.
