Workshare Launches New Mobile Collaboration & Comparison App
NEW ZEALAND LAUNCH RELEASE: APRIL 11,
2013
Workshare
Launches New Mobile Collaboration and Comparison App for
Android
Workshare, a leading provider of secure
enterprise collaboration applications, today launched
Workshare Mobile for Android in New Zealand, the first
mobile app to offer secure document collaboration and
comparison for Android tablets. Available today for download
via Google Play, this new app makes it even
simpler for Android users to review, collaborate on, and
compare documents securely while on the move.
Workshare Mobile for Android prevents the creation of information silos and the inability to track user access and activity around documents by eliminating the need for mobile users to download documents and send them as email attachments. Android users now have access to their documents beyond the firewall in an environment that is protected by the organisation’s data security and reporting policies.
The new app improves workforce productivity without compromising the security of documents or changing the way users access, review, or edit them. The app’s integration with Workshare’s online platform gives mobile users access to a rich set of security features including user authentication, password protection, permissions, time-limited file access, and full audit trails. In addition, the app’s mobile data management ensures tamper-proofing security in case the device is lost or stolen.
Key benefits include:
•
Powerful, Efficient Collaboration – The
industry’s only full-featured mobile collaboration app
extends Workshare's unique document comparison to mobile
devices via a secure, native app. The app allows users to
participate in existing collaborations, create new
workflows, and share content while on the move. Android
users can now also make location-tagged comments directly in
context in each page of a document like they can on the
online Workshare platform.
• Comparison
on the Road – Workshare Mobile is the first
mobile app for Android to leverage Workshare’s unique
patented comparison technology, enabling users to compare
multiple versions of documents accurately and quickly while
on the move.
• Automatic Syncing
– Workshare files and folders are instantly
available on Android tablets and, when online, always
up-to-date with the latest comments and changes made by
fellow collaborators.
“After the resounding
success of our first Workshare Mobile app, extending our
secure collaboration platform to Android users was the next
logical step,” said Anthony Foy, CEO of Workshare. “With
Workshare’s Mobile Apps, organisations maintain a high
level of control beyond the firewall while collaborators
benefit from a simple way to access and collaborate on their
documents.”
