FTP technology, the technology used by IQ Storage, has been an industry standard for well over a decade. Therefore, there are many ways to access your files.
For users with Windows Internet Explorer, after logging in you can simply copy and paste files into your remote folder to upload them. It is just like any other folder on your computer. There is no extra software required.
Use of FTP is similar for MacOS and other operating systems. Often, it's as easy as drag and drop.
You can also access your account with any standard FTP software such as WS_FTP. You can also use Netscape, Safari, or XFTP.
By using third party FTP programs you may be able to receive faster performance. Such software can be found here.
Often, you need to shared important files with others. To do this, you can simply log in to the FTP Control Panel. From there, you add extra "sub-accounts" to your main account. An extra "sub-account" consists of a user name and password that you create and give to others to share certain folders in your account.
Your FTP Control Panel allows you to change the settings on your account so that you can change your password or add sub-accounts.
After logging into your control panel, adding sub-accounts is easy! When you create a sub-account a new folder is created inside your main FTP files account. This new folder is the only folder that your sub account has access to.
For example, say you have an associate named John Jones with whom you want to share files. You can create a sub account called johnjones and give it any password you would like. A folder inside your account called johnjones will be created, and when the sub-account user johnjones logs in he will only have access to that folder. Therefore, you can now safely give your associate John the username and password for his sub-account and he will not have access to any other files on your account except for the ones in his own folder. You can also restrict upload or download access to his sub-account.
Using this system you can simply share your files among your clients, employees or coworkers.
