PackMan is a software that provides encryption for email and attachments, as well as the ability to store private files on public servers. It stores files in a compressed and ciphered format, and includes a built-in contact manager and password management feature. It also supports the RTF common word processing format.
One of its main advantages is its built-in support for the RTF common word processing format. Additionally, you can choose to use the built-in Contact Manager which auto-supplies passwords for you, so you don't need to remember different passwords for each contact. This feature is particularly useful when using email contacts - PackMan has seamless integration with Outlook and other Windows email clients. With just a click of an attachment, you'll know for certain who it's from and that nobody else saw the information in transit.
Another plus is that it supports drag and drop Windows Shell integration similar to WinZip, and is incredibly fast for its many encryption and compression features. PackMan offers full 128-bit encryption, which means all data and documents stored in its package are protected.
The file format has a public interface available through ActiveX or a DLL and comes with examples to auto-generate PackMan-compatible files from Visual Basic and other programming languages. One of the most significant benefits of PackMan is that it supports 64-bit file storage - unlike the 32-bit limits in WinZip, PackMan holds more files, and packages may be very large. Additionally, PackMan file storage supports versioning - if the same file from the same location changes over time, it may be added multiple times.
PackMan is unique in that it never asks you to pay for it, never expires, and contains no advertisements. Overall, it's a great software with excellent features that offer exciting new options for organizing and protecting your files.
