Developers can leverage our SDKs, API, and CLI to build custom integrations too. When interfacing with other systems, Files.com can be configured to “Push” files to the system on a schedule, “Pull” files from the system on a schedule, or "Mount" the remote system for live direct access.

We meet the stringent requirements to serve customers regulated by HIPAA and are happy to sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA), which is required by law. Beware of smaller competitors who claim that a BAA is not required. We will also sign a DPA for any customer regulated by GDPR or CCPA.
