YouSendIt, the number-one
secure Web-based digital file delivery company, today announced that it has
launched the YouSendIt Tracker for BlackBerry, a file-tracking application
that enables BlackBerry users to track their documents when on the go, directly
from their mobile phones. This feature now is available for both iPhone and
BlackBerry users.
"Offering a BlackBerry application that enables our customers to track their
files from anywhere was a natural extension to our mobile offering," said YouSendIt vice president of
product management, Arun Prakash. "As the mobile
workforce expands and users increasingly rely on their mobile devices to conduct
daily business activities, more will be turning to YouSendIt for mobile file
tracking. Anticipating their needs, YouSendIt continues to strive to provide
customers with innovations that will help improve the way they work," he
added.
Similar to the YouSendIt Tracker for iPhone application, BlackBerry users can
track the delivery status of files sent through YouSendIt to see who
downloaded a file and when it was downloaded. The YouSendIt Tracker
for BlackBerry also allows users to access and forward any previously sent
files, so they can track their documents from start to finish in a secure
manner. This capability is especially valuable to business professionals who
send confidential or time-sensitive files.
"As someone who works in the design field, I am constantly sending out large
and time-sensitive digital files to many vendors and design agencies. Those
files are usually too difficult to send via e-mail," said Lenore M. Wetzel, package design manager at Giant Eagle,
Inc. "To have the ability to track these files on my BlackBerry from wherever I
am makes my job so much easier. It gives me peace of mind to know that my files
have been delivered quickly and securely."
The BlackBerry Smartphone continues to be the device of choice for millions
of business professionals worldwide, and the YouSendIt Tracker
for BlackBerry will be a valuable asset to those users. The free YouSendIt Tracker
for BlackBerry application is available on the YouSendIt website
and will soon be available in the Business category of BlackBerry
App World. The application requires users to be registered for at least a YouSendIt Lite account.
Users that are already registered can begin using the app immediately.
