PROMISE Technology Debuts Enhanced Cloud File Synchronization And Sharing Service Solution

Available as an All-in-One or Software-Only Solution, FileCruiser 2.0 Offers Secure, Scalable Private Cloud Storage

Hsinchu, Taiwan And Milpitas, Ca (Marketwired) - PROMISE Technology Inc., a recognized global leader in the storage industry, today announced the launch of a new, enhanced version of its FileCruiser private Enterprise File Synchronization and Sharing (EFSS) solution: FileCruiser 2.0. PROMISE is offering a free 90-day trial to U.S.-based companies interested in trying this secure, on-premise storage solution.

Initially launched in 2014 as an all-in-one private cloud storage solution for enterprises and SMBs combining hardware and software, FileCruiser 2.0 includes the option of a software-only solution. By de-coupling the hardware and the software, PROMISE is enabling flexibility for businesses. This next-generation FileCruiser also enhances the already strong security and collaboration features of the original version. FileCruiser 2.0's military-grade security protocols, system configuration and AES-256 bit encryption ensure that files don't get in the wrong hands. Additionally, FileCruiser 2.0 provides secure, convenient access to files for easy collaboration and version control. Users can easily install FileCruiser 2.0 on their PC or Mac®, and sync files across all of their devices (with apps for both iOS and Android™).

FileCruiser 2.0 gives users the convenience of their own private cloud to securely store, manage and instantly access the thousands of photos, videos and files -- from anywhere. According to UNIXPlus, a FileCruiser 2.0 beta client, these features are enabling them to provide better customer service -- and increase customer satisfaction. "As a distributor of high-end servers, storage units, components, and networking equipment, excellent customer care and an easy, streamlined purchasing process are hallmarks of our business," noted John Bodo, CEO for UNIXPlus. "We're very pleased with the increased collaboration and productivity that FileCruiser is enabling for us. Our customers are now able to download product documentation and the latest firmware/driver updates directly from FileCruiser, and our salesforce is able to integrate with our tech team to send files and test reports from their mobile devices. This dramatically boosts efficiency by taking days off of the customer collaboration process."

"Many, if not most, of today's workers have more than one mobile device - and want anytime, anywhere access of their work files," said Ken Dai, chief strategy officer for PROMISE Technology. "However, we know that in a business setting, security is a top concern. FileCruiser helps businesses better connect, communicate and collaborate -- while offering enterprise level security in a private cloud setting. Be it hundreds or tens of thousands of users, FileCruiser is an ideal solution for businesses needing to secure, backup, instantly access, and share all of their files."
