Have you ever had a need to send someone a file that was too big to email? Yes, we’ve had FTP servers, but that meant managing another password. And services on the internet aren’t always secure.
Problem solved. Now City employees can use SENDIT. All you need is the same user name and password you use to log into your computer. All City employees can use it, and it’s simple to use.
Go to https://sendit.cityofchesapeake.net and enter your user name and password. Upload a file up to 4GB in size. Click a send button on the right, supply the other person’s email address, and you are done. The person you send it to will get an email with a unique download link that is good for up to 7 days. Files are deleted after 10 days, so this is not a place to store files.
The system has some additional features that you may find useful, such as setting the length of time a person can access a file and easy ways to share with several people. Check out the handbook for a more detailed overview of how to use SENDIT.
SENDIT works best in Internet Explorer or Google Chrome.
If you have any questions, please contact helpdesk@cityofchesapeake.net or call 382-8911.
