Highlighted customer use cases
From accounting exports and database backups to supplier integrations and large media delivery — ftpGrid is built for real-world operational workflows.
ERP & accounting integrations
We use ftpGrid to exchange invoices, EDI files and ERP exports securely between internal systems and external partners without maintaining our own SFTP infrastructure.
Automated secure backups
Database backups, nightly exports and log archives are transferred automatically using encrypted SFTP connections and webhook-based workflows
Vendor & partner file exchange
ftpGrid allows us to exchange sensitive business files securely with suppliers, customers and external partners using standard SFTP clients.
Large file delivery
We transfer large media files, reports and archives through stable encrypted connections without worrying about bandwidth spikes or storage scaling.
REST API & application integrations
Our applications upload and retrieve files through the ftpGrid REST API while legacy systems continue using FTP and SFTP.
Compliance-sensitive workflows
Encrypted transfers, audit logs and European hosting make ftpGrid suitable for regulated workflows and compliance-sensitive file handling.
