How it works?
Binfer provides a distinctive file sharing method, unlike standard cloud storage services. It requires installation on a computer, which must remain online for the service to function.
Here’s a breakdown of the two key components to help you understand and get started
Management Console | Computer/Device |
| Think of this as your control center. Accessible from any web browser, it lets you oversee and manage all your file transfer tasks. It can be Binfer Managed or Self Managed (see FAQ below). | This is where the action happens. After Binfer is installed on the designated device, it establishes a connection with the Management Console for file transfer operations. All file transfers are direct, eliminating the involvement of third-party servers. |
Steps to get started
- Download and install the Binfer installer specific to your computer’s operating system.
