HighQ, leading provider of enterprise cloud collaboration and publishing software, has released HighQ Collaborate 3.4. The platform combines secure file sharing and advanced document management with leading-edge enterprise social collaboration, personal productivity and project management tools.
The latest version of Collaborate is a major release that sees the platform boost personal productivity for enterprise users and significantly enhances data security and privacy.
“This is a huge release and we’re incredibly excited to get it into our customers’ hands. We have combined multiple client-requested enhancements with major new data security features that make Collaborate more secure, powerful and versatile than ever,” says HighQ’s Chief Strategy Officer, Stuart Barr.
Major security enhancements have led the way in this release with the addition of hybrid file storage and client encryption key management, which are designed to allay any remaining fears firms may have about moving to the cloud.
“In response to a growing desire from our customers to have full control over where their data is located, how it’s encrypted and who has access to it, we wanted to remove any final barriers to adopting our cloud-based solutions,” says Barr.
HighQ’s new hybrid file storage solution now gives customers the choice of storing their data wherever they want. They can choose from any one of the company’s existing data centres in five locations globally or customers can opt to store files on-premise inside their own data centres. In addition, HighQ’s encryption key management solution allows customers to hold their own encryption keys in a dedicated key manager on-premise.
“Our hybrid storage and encryption key management solutions are a breakthrough in enterprise cloud security,” says Barr. “We are now able to offer our customers unparalleled flexibility about where they store their data and who manages the encryption keys. It is without doubt a watershed moment for us, now there really is no reason not to move to the cloud.”
Personal productivity and team collaboration features have also been boosted in the release with the addition of client-requested features including native Microsoft Office integration, personal file syncing, new team calendars, two-way HP WorkSite sync, new APIs, improved secure file transfer features and much more.
“We combined these ground-breaking security features with important client-requested enhancements and new integration options that significantly expand the use cases for the platform, improve the user experience and boost personal productivity,” explains Barr.
