ORANGEBLOG

A few weeks ago, we hinted about a new web-application that we were working on, and we’re to a point where we’re ready to share…. well share details at least….

The software is called File’s Up! and is an FTP site web-interface. No more need for FTP clients (even though there some nice FTP clients), or using third-party sites to share files. You login, browse, download, and even upload, through a simple web interface.

Our need was for a nice way to deliver completed projects to our clients and vendors, as well as coming up with a way for them to share files with us. We have used other sites, but we wanted a better solution, and one that matched the look of ORANGEHAT. We’re a design shop, so what we do, and what we use, should be ours, shouldn’t it?! So we’re in a private beta testing phase right now while we finish ironing out the bugs.

As we were developing this system, we found that other agencies, companies, designers, or anyone hosting their own PHP-based website may be interested in using this kind of software. So we’ll be offering this system for a small fee that anyone can install on their own site.

So what’s next? Well, we’re in our closed private beta, while we continue to test and iron out the bugs. Then we’ll create some generic themes, a demo site, and then put it up for sale in the upcoming month or so.

We’re all really excited (and anxious) to finish up the site, and to be able to share it with the entire internet. Look for more updates in the upcoming weeks!
