Faster file transfer acceleration for business and enterprise
MASV Express is exciting new file transfer acceleration technology. Breaking news? Sports coverage? Broadcasting and growing files? For any workflow where every moment counts, MASV Express gets files there faster. MASV Express enables the transfer to the destination to start while the upload is still in progress, providing near real-time availability of files upon upload completion. Currently, MASV Express delivers files exclusively to Amazon S3 destinations, but more destinations are in the works.
What's the benefit?
Aside from all the current benefits of MASV Standard file acceleration and the MASV Cloud, MASV Express also provides:
- Faster transfers to Amazon S3—from the time the upload is complete to the time the files are available in S3.
- For multi-file packages, you no longer need to wait for the entire package--you can access individual files within a package as they arrive in S3.

MASV Express allows the transfer to the destination to start while the upload is still in progress, providing near real-time availability of the files after the upload is complete.
How much faster is MASV Express?
The speed advantage varies depending on the systems, network, and package content. MASV Express is always faster than our MASV Standard file transfer acceleration. The example below shows some factors that can affect speed.
Requirements
- MASV Express is available for Enterprise accounts. Please contact support@masv.io for information about activation.
- Eligible destinations/storage: Amazon S3
- MASV Standard is used for any Portals that mix S3 integrations with integrations not supported by MASV Express.

MASV virus and malware scanning with MASV Express
Like other cloud and file transfer services, MASV has an individual file size limit for malware scanning (currently 100 MB). To maximize security and performance, follow best practices and ensure the files you plan to send are scanned with local malware protection software and scan your downloads as well. MASV Express carries out the same malware scanning as before, but file delivery speed can exceed scanning and reporting speed, so please follow best practices.
