Accellion launches kiteworks

Accellion Inc., has launched a new product – kiteworks by Accellion. This is a mobile-first solution designed to enable people to work securely wherever they are.

Its mobile design offers productivity tools and access to enterprise content stores for mobile workforces without introducing data security risks.

“Our new mobile-first design and three-tier architecture create a secure solution that is easy to use, and has the extreme scalability that enterprises and government agencies around the world need to securely enable an increasingly mobile workforce,” said Yorgen Edholm, CEO, Accellion. 

“Secure business solutions will only be used if they help not hinder employees getting their work done, and kiteworks is the embodiment of that principle.”

Rather than squeezing a PC-based design into a mobile app, kiteworks was designed for mobile first. It features include an integrated set of productivity tools for creating, editing and annotating Microsoft Office documents, file-centric collaboration and the assignment and management of file-based tasks.

Kiteworks also provides access to enterprise content stores such as Documentum and SharePoint Online in addition to file shares previously supported including Microsoft SharePoint 2007, 2010 and 2013 and Windows File Shares.

The three-tier architecture for private cloud file sharing and collaboration supports deployment options for enhanced security, such as putting the web layer in the DMZ for external users, while keeping the application and data layers behind the firewall.

Organisations concerned with data sovereignty, can specify where data is stored based on user geography, access rights, or type of content.
