NomaDesk File Sharing Software allows professionals to securely store and access files from wherever they are

(23/04/2009)

NomaDesk has announced the launch of the 3.0 version of its day-today file sharing service. The software allows geographically dispersed professionals to store files, sync, secure, access, transfer, and eventually share them from wherever they are, on or off-line. The NomaDesk solution is an alternative to traditional file sharing tools, which often lack mobility and the adequate security to go with it.

Designed for digital nomads who either work independently or in small or medium-sized enterprises, the new version of NomaDesk’s solution features TheftGuard™ technology, which allows users to shred files from a distance. When a laptop is stolen, the user is typically no longer logged on, and therefore, the data on the hard drive is invisible, inaccessible and encrypted. However, if the password has been stolen or the laptop is stolen while the user is still logged on, NomaDesk can remove the data at the user’s request remotely. The information stored on the laptop is never lost, as it is always saved on NomaDesk’s fileservers.

“NomaDesk has been saving millions of files for companies and mobile professionals for almost five years now and will be looking forward to saving millions more with the newly launched release of its virtual file server software,” said Filip Tack, CEO and co-founder of NomaDesk. “NomaDesk stands out as a true alternative to costly hardware and IT services for individuals and small businesses that need a cost-effective day-to-day and secure way to have access to and/or share their information wherever they are, on any computer.”

NomaDesk enables users to have multiple points of access to their servers and files from their own computers or any location. Information is safely stored and backed up by NomaDesk daily to ensure files are never lost. Dedicated 24x7 customer service is available to users – through the phone or live chat – who need to retrieve old files, report a stolen computer or simply need help.

The following features further enhance NomaDesk’s performance as a day-to-day service, encompassing the different challenges faced by digital nomads:
· Small and quick to download
· Easy file sharing: as simple as adding a friend on Windows Live Messenger or Facebook
· Easy to use thanks to its seamless integration to the Windows interface
· One-click functionality to send large files through Internet-based links generated by NomaDesk
· Ability to access file servers via the NomaDesk website
· Possibility to send files to NomaDesk’s server by email
· Ability to append a date time stamp to conflicting files

NomaDesk offers two different packages to meet all needs of geographically dispersed professionals. The Team file Server ($15/month) is perfect for file sharing and collaboration, while the Personal Server ($50/year) is an ideal solution for nomads that work on different computers.
