December 22, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
SMBs and SOHO customers, Mobile Professionals and Digital Nomads Can Securely Share Folders of Photos, Presentations or Any Important Content with a Click
New York, NY – December 21, 2009 – Nomadesk, developer of the easiest and most secure on-demand file sharing software, today announced FolderLink, a new feature that allows Nomadesk customers to share complete folders containing large files, photos, presentations or videos publicly through an email link, even if the recipient isn’t a Nomadesk user. Rather than relying on email or FTP to try to send large files, Nomadesk created FolderLink to more easily and securely share a large amount of content in one click. SMBs or professionals interested in test driving Nomadesk can download a free 30-day trial at Nomadesk.com.
“The beauty of Nomadesk is that users can seamlessly share content without the limitations of email attachments,” said Nomadesk CEO Filip Tack. “We expanded the concept of our FileLink capability to include folders of content with FolderLink. Now users can securely share photo albums with family members without requiring them to sign up for a social media site, or share presentations with business colleagues without having to worry about formatting issues because Nomadesk supports all applications.” Graphics designers can share complete folders with all sorts of collateral.
What Nomadesk Technology Does
Millions of people risk losing their unprotected, critical data every day. As the amount of unprotected data stored on multiple devices increases, it becomes harder to synchronize and easier to lose. Nomadesk allows individuals and teams to secure, sync, share and backup data with no limits or change in behavior, giving them access to their files when working online and offline. Nomadesk’s virtual drives act just like a hard drive, storing important documents in one place with remote access. Users simply drag and drop their docs into the virtual file server, and files are immediately encrypted, backed up and available for file sharing. For added protection, Nomadesk’s TheftGuard technology protects content stored on mobile devices, allowing users to remotely shred important docs in the event of theft or lost hardware while keeping the data neatly tucked-away in the Cloud, in addition to tracking stolen or misplaced devices on Google Maps.
“Sharing folders of content has been an obstacle for all users,” said Joe Martins, Managing Director, Data Mobility Group. “Nomadesk continues to build new feature sets to make their product a true collaboration tool. With FolderLink you can share an entire folder by simply sending a public link. It’s a simplified FTP-like service!”

TechCrunch: Nomadesk, Not Just Another File Sharing Service
December 21, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
Robin Wauters from TechCrunch posted this article yesterday about some of the things that separates Nomadesk from the competition. Announcing the new feature of FolderLink, Wauters makes a case for the steady additions of features and business focus as a way Nomadesk is differentiating itself from the others.
For what it’s worth: Nomadesk really has an awesome desktop client (Windows and Mac) that goes far beyond most of what competitors have to offer, and the distribution part of the equation is slowly coming to fruition as well (the company recently signed a deal with Bell Canada for the company to use Nomadesk’s solution as a white-label service they can offer directly to their customers, and has similar agreements in place and in the pipeline).
But while the company has been consistently growing after its inception a couple of years ago, albeit slowly, the startup has received very little attention from tech press and industry pundits so far. I genuinely think that Nomadesk deserves more of it, as its service stacks up against most proponents in this space, particularly in the way you can control your virtual fileserver(s) from your mobile phone.
Maybe a new feature being launched today will raise some eyebrows: Nomadesk is today introducing a welcome feature that allows users to share an entire folder – regardless of its size – with anyone with an Internet connection and a browser. Simply use the desktop client to right-click any folder you’d like to share, and you can relay the link to whoever you would like to share it with, and they don’t need to have the software installed let alone be a registered Nomadesk user to access all the files in the folder.

Nomadesk: Cloud-Based Backup Providers Doing Quite Well
ReadWriteWeb posted an article by Alex Williams about Telecom companies offering their customers cloud-based services. The Nomadesk/Bell Canada partnership was used as a prime example.
Telecommunications companies are partnering with services like Nomadesk to give customers the ability to do their own cloud-based online backups.
Nomadesk is a virtual hard drive on your desktop. It’s very simple. We downloaded the application, made some simple configurations and immediately had the ability to drag and drop files into the virtual hard drive that sits on the desktop.The hard drive is connected to the cloud and syncs when updates are made.
TechCrunch Breaks News On Bell Canada Partnership
MG Siegler from TechCrunch got the jump on everyone when he posted and article about the Bell Canada partnership with Nomadesk yesterday. The press release is scheduled for tomorrow but the cat is out of the bag.
The company has a deal with Bell Canada to give its SOHO and SMB customers easy access to Nomadesk’s cloud-storage offering. With it, Bell Canada customers will be able to share, synchronize, encrypt, backup, and store data on Nomadesk all for $15-a-month per file server. For this fee, an unlimited number of team members will be able to access the data through any computer, and more importantly for this deal, their phones.
