Files.com vs. Babelway

Over 6,000 organizations rely on Files.com to facilitate the automation and security of vital data transfers. We are deeply committed to ensuring security, compliance, reliability, and performance, allowing your essential business operations to function seamlessly every time. With our platform, you can effortlessly manage transfer workflows without the need for coding or scripting, enabling smooth onboarding of workloads and partners. We accommodate standard file transfer protocols such as FTP, SFTP, and AS2 for collaborating with external partners, while also offering native applications designed for optimal performance during internal transfers. As a fully Cloud-Native SaaS solution, you won't need to purchase or maintain any servers, and there’s no installation process required, as high availability and redundancy are inherently integrated at no additional cost. Our comprehensive InfoSec Program undergoes annual audits by Kirkpatrick Price, a respected CPA firm specializing in information security, which evaluates the entire spectrum of Files.com’s operations rather than just focusing on data centers, ensuring transparency and reliability—contrast this with smaller competitors who may misrepresent their audit results. Among our technical features are encryption for data at rest and in transit, four variations of two-factor authentication, nine integrations for enterprise identity (SSO), customizable password and session policies, along with an impressive “A+” rating from Qualys SSL Labs for security. This commitment to security and performance distinguishes us in the competitive landscape.

In 2007, Francois Van Uffelen and Mathieu Pasture, alongside another Mathieu Pasture, launched Babelway with the aim of streamlining EDI/B2B integration from the outset. The platform developed by Babelway automates the flow of documents between partners utilizing diverse formats and transfer methods, distinguishing itself as a user-friendly, cloud-based application accessible to both IT specialists and businesses alike. This straightforward approach significantly enhances efficiency and eases operational processes for all users involved. As a fast-growing SaaS enterprise based in Belgium, Babelway boasts a customer base exceeding 500 and has expanded its presence globally over the past ten years. In a notable development, Tradeshift, a cloud-centric business network that supports supply chain transactions, marketplaces, and applications, acquired Babelway in December 2018, thereby integrating it into its portfolio as a Tradeshift company. This acquisition marks a significant milestone in Babelway's journey, positioning it to leverage Tradeshift's resources for further growth and innovation.
