Getting Started with the FileCap Outlook Add-In

Jan 29, 2024

Use the add-in to perform the following operations:

  • Add one or two authentication options to send secure messages and files.
  • No need for message encryption? No problem. Just import the files into the add-in, add security if needed, generate the FileCap link and paste it into your email.
  • Want to receive a file from someone? Send the invitation from this add-in with two clicks.
  • If you want your message to have an expiration date or if you want to limit the total number of downloads, you can set that in the FileCap add-in.
  • Choose the "Select a folder" option if you want to send entire folders at once, and FileCap takes care of the rest.
  • Send your emails the same way as always, but with attachments that can be up to 10 GB or more! That way, you won't have to worry about them taking up too much space in your inbox.

The add-in allows users to encrypt messages to simplify file transfers and add various authentication options such as passwords, email access codes, SMS codes, and more.

Benefits associated with FileCap in Outlook

Here are some advantages of implementing FileCap as an Outlook add-in.

  • Data encryption: The FileCap Outlook add-in allows you to send and receive encrypted e-mails and attachments. Plus, only the person you send it to can tell if your email is private or organizationally sensitive. You get the same simple email encryption you're used to with FileCap's secure file transfer features. You can use the FileCap web portal, or, like Microsoft Outlook, you can use the integration options.
  • High-security: FileCap implements multiple authentication options to transfer files securely. You have the choice to select one authentication method or select two authentication methods for increased security.
  • Time saving: Using FileCap as an add-in from Outlook saves time because you never have to leave your Outlook application to send large files or sensitive data. You can also invite someone using this add-in.
  • User-friendly: FileCap is designed with the end user in mind. It is the best choice for smooth data transfer because of its simple, clear user interface that has been improved with user feedback.
  • Device compatibility: The compatibility of FileCap's Outlook plug-ins with Windows, Mac and the web version of Outlook ensures that users have seamless integration and function across platforms.

Conclusion

In summary, if you use Microsoft Outlook, you can use FileCap to easily send (large) attachments. Just install the add-in and you're ready to go. In addition, do you want to email securely? FileCap is suitable for that, too, and you don't have to upgrade the solution and pay extra for a "higher bundle." All functionality is immediately available.
