IBT's FTP Server Access

In increasing numbers, we are receiving jobs via electronic transmission either via email or our ftp site. However, there are distinct advantages to using the FTP site instead of email. We would like to encourage our customers to use the FTP site whenever possible. Advantages of using the FTP site include: transmission is better than email and corrupt files are less likely to occur, multiple files can be added to a single folder rather than having multiple emails, successful FTP transfer is confirmed upon completion, and software necessary for FTP transactions is available for free. The disadvantages of email include a greater chance of file corruption, size limits imposed my many email servers or services, and a file that has been emailed to a single individual must then be resent to the appropriate department at IBT, further increasing the chance of error.

If you are sending files for IBT to process, you may utilize your preferred FTP client software such as CuteFTP, Filezilla, FETCH or Windows Explorer (not internet explorer). From Here you have two options:

1. Use our public folder by proceeding to hostname ftp.ibtglobal.biz or ftp.integratedbook.com , with a login of ibtcustomer, and a password of account. You will be able to view the contents of the folder and all subfolders, create folders, and upload files. This option does not allow for retrieval or viewing of files by you.

2. Contact your customer service rep and have a private account created. Folders and subfolders and files can be managed by you. You also have the ability to retrieve files with this option. Proceed to hostname ftp.ibtglobal.biz or ftp.integratedbook.com with a login and the password provided by your customer service rep.
