New Nomadesk For Windows Integrates FileLink With Microsoft® Outlook®
April 15, 2010 by Filip Tack · 2 Comments
We are happy to announce a new product enhancement to Nomadesk for Windows that integrates FileLink with Outlook 2007 and 2010.
From now on Nomadesk users are able to email large files such as photos, graphics, videos and presentations through a password-protected link of a file that resides in a Nomadesk fileserver. When emailing an attachment, and using Microsoft Outlook, you will be given the option to send a FileLink vs. the actual file. By selecting the FileLink option, you benefit in the following ways:
- Secure, password-protected file transfer in seconds
- Send large file attachments (100MB and more)
- Email system is offloaded
- Attached files are automatically archived and made available on a Nomadesk Fileserver
- Attached files are backed up and synchronized to the Cloud
- File expiration and controlled distribution of your files
- Ability to still update the attachments after they were sent
The new FileLink is standard to Nomadesk for Windows and you are free to try Nomadesk for 30 days. Existing users can simply upgrade to the latest version on our download page.
Here is a short video on how the add-in actually works.

New Feature: FolderLink
January 13, 2010 by Jacques De Bruyne · Leave a Comment
Nomadesk already provides easy file sharing for all files on a Nomadesk fileserver with FileLink and unlimited guest access. FolderLink takes ad-hoc file sharing to the next level. Any folder on a Nomadesk Team Fileserver can now be shared via myNomadesk.com.
How does it work?
Follow the steps below and you will be sharing folders with friends and co-workers within seconds.
Note: make sure you have a working Nomadesk Team Fileserver (either in trial or through a subscription plan). Click here for download and installation instructions.
-
Log in with your Nomadesk account on myNomadesk.com.
-
Select your Fileserver and browse to the location containing the folder you wish to share.
-
On the folder you wish to share, click the down arrow or right-click and choose FolderLink.
-
Select the notify option if you wish to be notified by email when someone has accessed the folder.
5. If necessary, change the expiration time of the link. Tip: this option can be handy if you want to increase or lower the security level of the folder link or if you want your team members to download and review the contents of the folder before a given deadline.
6. Enter your addressees email addresses, type a subject and a message, and click Send.
Your recipients will receive an email which contains a FolderLink. When they click this link, they will be redirected to a secured Nomadesk website from which they can download the file.
Note: only the contents in the root of the folder will be shared with your recipients, no subfolders will be visible.
Nomadesk Broadens File Sharing Capabilities with FolderLink

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.
