File Sharing and Collaboration is Now Faster with GlobalSCAPE’s Wide Area File Services Upgrade

Business Wire
GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (NYSE Amex: GSB), a leading developer of
secure information exchange solutions, today released an upgraded
version of its Wide Area File Services™ (WAFS) solution.
GlobalSCAPE WAFS version 4.0 software features improved support
for all current Windows operating systems, a redesigned and
intuitive user interface, and enhanced international support with
full compatibility for Unicode character sets. WAFS now includes
Local Sync, a new feature that allows users to rapidly synchronize
data while also simplifying implementation.
E-Director Limited, a GlobalSCAPE WAFS reseller for more than
six years, recently implemented the new version of WAFS with a
multi-national customer. Amjid Salam, E-Director Limited’s Managing
Director, says, “The new interface is definitely more intuitive and
brings together previously separated tasks into a single interface,
saving time for our customers. The Vault feature in particular
requires significantly less configuration, not to mention that the
upgrade installation was a simple and painless task.”
The new features of WAFS were chosen based on feedback from our
customers. “GlobalSCAPE customers have always been, and remain
today, the primary source for insight and feedback regarding our
products,” says WAFS product manager, Jason Wolford. “Based largely
on suggestions from our customers, the WAFS 4.0 improvements will
provide significant benefits, including improved collaboration and
faster access to data, while using less bandwidth.”
Collaboration and sharing of files is the lifeblood of many
organizations. Multi-organization projects are most often carried
out via email or, for large files, by courier. Both of these
approaches are inefficient, insecure, and difficult to track and
audit.
First released in 2004, WAFS replicates files across different
locations around the globe, providing secure, near real-time data
access by multiple remote users. As files are modified, the system
instantly mirrors all changes using intelligent byte-level
differencing technology. This method minimizes the impact on
network bandwidth, transferring only the changes to the file,
rather than the entire file. Also, file locking ensures that you
never overwrite files that another user has open.
“Our priority is providing flexible, scalable software that
seamlessly fits into our customers’ IT environments,” says Wolford.
“With WAFS, companies can provide a robust file-sharing solution
that is fast, secure, and reliable, using their existing IT
infrastructure.”
