Overview

Pro:Atria Ltd is a British software company established in 2001 as a specialist consultancy and distributor for enterprise software products. Based at The Old Exchange in South Cadbury, Yeovil, Somerset, the company has focused on multi-platform solutions and, in its early years, distributed and supported products for Proginet Corp of New York (acquired by Tibco in 2010). Pro:Atria's principal commercial offering is SFTPPlus MFT, a UK-developed managed file transfer platform whose development began in 2005. The product brings together SFTP, FTPS, HTTPS, AS2 and other file transfer protocols in a single standalone solution, and supports PGP encryption, REST integration, and connections to services such as SharePoint, Azure Blob and Exchange Online. It runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and Kubernetes, and can be deployed on-premise, in the cloud, or in containerized environments including OpenShift. SFTPPlus is aimed at organisations that need secure, automated file exchange between internal systems, customers, suppliers, trading partners and cloud services, but do not want the complexity or cost of a large enterprise integration platform. The company positions the product as offering enterprise MFT capabilities without enterprise complexity, under a perpetual licence model that combines server and client orchestration. Pro:Atria serves customers worldwide, stating that it supports customers on six of the seven continents and that its customers include government bodies, outsourcing firms, global corporations, educational institutions and SMEs. The company reports a support renewal rate of approximately 99% and maintains an extensive automated test suite of more than 32,000 tests run across all supported platforms. The company remains privately held and continues to develop and support the SFTPPlus range, with releases such as SFTPPlus 6.0.0 announced in 2026.

History

Pro:Atria Ltd was established in 2001 as a specialist consultancy and distributor for enterprise software products, with a focus on multi-platform solutions. In its early years, the company distributed and supported solutions for Proginet Corp of New York, which was later acquired by Tibco in 2010. Development of the company's own product line began in 2005 with SFTPPlus Client, a solution for auditing and automation of SFTP, FTP and FTPS file transfers. This initial product was developed for a UK insurance company that remains a customer. The company's technical skills and attention to customer needs led to the expansion of the SFTPPlus range into a full managed file transfer platform. SFTPPlus MFT is a UK-developed platform that supports SFTP, FTPS, HTTPS, AS2 and PGP. It runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and Kubernetes, combining server and client orchestration under a perpetual licence for secure automated file transfer. Over time, the platform added support for cloud services such as SharePoint, Azure Blob and Exchange Online, REST integration, and deployment options including on-premise, cloud, and containerized environments such as Kubernetes and OpenShift. Pro:Atria has grown its customer base internationally, reporting support for customers on six of the seven continents, with customers including government bodies, outsourcing firms, global corporations, educational institutions and SMEs. The company maintains a support renewal rate of approximately 99% and runs more than 32,000 automated tests across all supported platforms for every release. The company continues to operate as a private, independent software vendor from its base in South Cadbury, Yeovil, Somerset, and announced SFTPPlus 6.0.0 in 2026 as a major release with security and usability improvements for the Web Manager.
