Jesse Lipson, Chief Executive Officer, ShareFile:
“ShareFile has always been 100% focused on business users, but in the past 6 months we have seen greatly increased traction with large enterprises. Today’s enterprises are demanding more than what simple consumer based file-sharing services have to offer, and recent security breaches by freemium providers have illustrated the importance of business-class security and user management features. While no software solution is bulletproof, our new security and reporting features, including delegated authentication using Active Directory, help enterprises take control over security while still benefiting from SaaS solutions like ours. We are very excited to expand our offerings and will be announcing more enterprise features in the months to come.”
Paul Barker, Mobius:
“ShareFile has always provided the service and features that meet our critical business needs. As an engineering training company that shares large file sizes on a daily basis, ShareFile’s services provide us with a branded interface, ease of access and user-level access control, allowing each partner to see only the materials they need or want to see. In evaluating like services, ShareFile provided the functionality that was essential to us, combined with top-drawer customer service and support.”
