Case Study: EFILM achieves unprecedented global turnaround times with Aspera fasp high-speed file transfer

Pioneering Digital Laboratory Selects Aspera Software To Enhance Its Services Offering With High-Speed File Transfer Capabilities

EFILM, owned by Deluxe Laboratories, is a leading digital laboratory serving motion picture and television clients worldwide. Faced with massive, file-based workflows (tens of thousands of large files) and the limits of FTP and physical shipping—slow transfers, customs delays, virus risks and time-consuming drive handling—EFILM needed a faster, more reliable way to move large media globally.

EFILM deployed Aspera fasp™ (with adaptive rate control and a browser-based management console) to maximize bandwidth use without disrupting other traffic, prioritize critical jobs on‑the‑fly, and provide secure end-to-end transfers. The result: transfers between continents at over 95% bandwidth utilization (one LA–London reel moved in ~30 minutes), dramatic reductions in turnaround time, elimination of many physical shipments, and improved visibility and cost-effectiveness for their global digital services.
