Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension enables the use of IBM Aspera Connect with Chrome. This extension requires the IBM Aspera Connect application, version 3.9.0 or newer.

The purpose of this extension and the corresponding desktop application is to move large files FAST from your computer to an IBM Aspera server.

You need to have an account on an Aspera server to move files.

FASP is the protocol used to move files much faster than is possible over TCP/IP. The application has to be where the network is.

Privacy statement: This extension is activated only by websites that integrate IBM Aspera to transfer files. This extension does not read or store any personal information.

Useless piece of garbage that belongs to 2005. You need to download a 2MB file? Any modern website: Click HERE. Aspera Connect: Sorry mate, first download this extension, then some random unsafe offline app, then it won't work so you need to try firefox and maybe then it will work.... or maybe not

The most awful extension I have ever seen. It asks to install extension and application, but it never works. I have already spent five hours trying to download the files I need, but no result.

I just don't get it. I followed the instructions, installed the extension, then installed the second part of software on my laptop. But it won't connect. It says "Get the latest version' and then it appears that the version downloaded from pop-up is not the latest. Ok, downloading and installing the latest one. Is it working? Nope. Starting the diagnostics and it won't even bother to finish. Never. Testing ports? Disabled all the time. Troubleshooting tips start with 'If you're using Windows' and ending right there. And if I'm using Ubuntu? No troubleshooting tips? It shouldn't take THAT much time to configure and set a working environment.

Getty Images provide this as a must install to download paid/licensed media. How hard can it be? Well, it says to add extension, you click on it, and says "Error not Found". Repeat what appears to be a simple process and you spin your head and repeat the rinse cycle. This is ridiculous when things like WeTransfer, Dropbox or other direct download offerings are out there. This should be dummy proof.
