While FTAPI is primarily a platform for secure data exchange — with products like SecuMails, SecuRooms, SecuForms, and SecuFlows — SecureCloud offers a complete ecosystem for secure collaboration. Your data belongs to you — and we guarantee that through certifications such as ISO 27001 (TÜV Rheinland), BSI C5, Trusted Cloud, GDPR (Datenschutz-Grundverordnung (DSGVO)) and CIS Compliance.

You determine who has access to which data, when and for how long. Easy to use and highly cutomizable!
Read and edit PDFs, work on full-featured Microsoft Office documents anytime, from any device — no matter where you are in the world!


Digitize your business transactions and contract signatures while increasing productivity and security.





All data is encrypted with AES-256-bit and TLS — before upload. Multi-factor authentication (MFA), granular user and rights management, and seamless audit logs ensure that only authorised persons have access.
Regular TÜV certification to ISO 27001 and the BSI C5 attestation confirm these security standards through independent auditors.
Work simultaneously with colleagues and external partners on Office documents — encrypted, in real time, without leaving the cloud.
Share files via SecureLink with password protection and expiry date. Receive files via secure upload links. Everything fully secure, everything fully traceable.


While FTAPI focuses on secure data exchange and does not include electronic signature functionality, SecureSign is included in SecureCloud's standard plans.
From simple electronic signatures to qualified electronic signatures (QES) — digitise your signing processes in minutes rather than days.
No lengthy implementation project, no IT overhead. SecureCloud is ready to use in 30 minutes.
Download the desktop client, log in via browser, or use the mobile app — and get started immediately.

Sign up for the 14-day free trial. No credit card required, no risk.
Explore all features and see for yourself.
Upload your existing folder structures and files to SecureCloud via drag & drop or through the desktop client. For larger migrations, your personal Account Manager is there to support you.
Create your users, define roles and access rights at folder and file level.
Everything works intuitively via the web interface — no training, no technical know-how required.
On the Advanced and Enterprise plans, you can personalise SecureCloud with your own logo, colours, and even a custom domain. SecureCloud becomes your cloud.
FTAPI is primarily a secure data exchange platform. Its core products — SecuMails, SecuRooms, SecuForms, and SecuFlows — are designed for transferring files, collecting structured data, and automating sensitive processes. SecuRooms offers data rooms for file sharing, but FTAPI is not a persistent cloud storage solution with desktop sync, version history, and real-time collaboration. SecureCloud provides all of this: persistent team storage, a browser-based office suite, electronic signatures, and secure email in one platform.
FTAPI does not publish pricing. The base package covers file transfer and encryption, but many features that most organisations consider essential — two-factor authentication, Single Sign-On, corporate branding, custom domains, priority support, and personal onboarding — are paid add-ons on top of the base price. The total cost of ownership can therefore be significantly higher than the initial quote. SecureCloud starts at €5 per user per month with 2FA and a personal account manager included in every plan.
No, not in the base package. Two-factor authentication via app, SMS, or email is a paid add-on with FTAPI. The same applies to Single Sign-On via Entra ID, ADFS, BundID, or Okta. With SecureCloud, 2FA is included in all plans at no extra cost.
No. FTAPI does not include document editing capabilities. Files shared through SecuRooms or SecuMails must be downloaded, edited in a separate application such as Microsoft Office, and re-uploaded. SecureCloud includes SecureWork — a browser-based office suite for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint — so teams can edit files directly in the cloud.
No. FTAPI does not include electronic signature functionality. If you need signed contracts, approvals, or NDAs, you would need to integrate a separate e-signature provider. SecureCloud includes SecureSign in all plans, supporting simple, advanced, and qualified electronic signatures (QES) through an eIDAS-compliant trust service provider.
Both custom domain and corporate branding (logo and colours) are paid add-ons with FTAPI. With SecureCloud, custom domain, logo, and colour customisation are included in the Advanced plan at €8 per user per month — no extra charge.
The fundamental difference is product philosophy. FTAPI is a secure data exchange platform with four products (SecuMails, SecuRooms, SecuForms, SecuFlows) and a paid add-on model for features like 2FA, SSO, branding, and priority support.
SecureCloud is a complete cloud collaboration platform that includes persistent team storage (SecureShare), a browser-based office suite (SecureWork), electronic signatures including QES (SecureSign), and secure email (SecureMail) — with 2FA, personal account management, and transparent pricing included from the start.
SecureCloud starts at €5 per user per month (Business) or €8 per user per month (Advanced), with all prices publicly listed. FTAPI does not publish pricing, and essential features like 2FA, SSO, branding, and priority support are paid extras.
When comparing total cost of ownership — including the add-ons most organisations need — SecureCloud's all-inclusive model is typically more cost-effective and always more predictable.
SecureCloud is ready to use in 30 minutes. Since FTAPI is a transfer platform rather than persistent storage, migration primarily involves uploading your existing folder structures to SecureCloud via drag and drop or the desktop client. For larger migrations, your personal account manager supports you throughout the process — included in every plan.
SecureCloud encrypts all data with AES-256-bit and TLS before it is even uploaded. The solution is ISO 27001 certified (TÜV Rheinland), BSI C5 attested, Trusted Cloud certified, and fully GDPR compliant. Headquarters and data centres are located exclusively in Germany, hosted via noris network AG in Nuremberg. Two-factor authentication is included in all plans — not a paid add-on.
Yes. SecureSign, included in all SecureCloud plans, supports qualified electronic signatures (QES) via an eIDAS-compliant trust service provider. QES carry the same legal weight as a handwritten signature across the European Union — a capability FTAPI does not offer natively.
No. The Business plan has no minimum contract term. You can cancel monthly.
