What was the problem you were looking for a solution to?
“ Being able to securely send large files to our customers . Especially large files are difficult to send by email. In audit practice you often see that our customers deliver huge collections of data via WeTransfer, Dropbox or, for example, via a USB stick . This is not desirable, especially since it is not AVG-proof. ”
How did you end up at Smartlockr?
“We have taken over a client from another accountancy firm. When we asked for some permanent data, it was sent to us via Smartlockr. This looked professional and very handy!
We had been looking for such a solution for a while, given that free alternatives such as Dropbox and WeTransfer are owned by commercial American parties. ”
“Smartlockr is a simple solution to securely exchange files between client and accountant, both ways”
Why did you ultimately choose Smartlockr?
“The introduction of the GDPR has played a major role in the choice of a solution. We were looking for a simple solution to securely exchange files between client and accountant .
We were able to test the software extensively in advance through an online demo and trial period. Going live took little time and effort.
It turns out to be the requested solution for us. In addition, the SaaS model ensures that we spend almost no time on maintenance and updates. ”
