Globo has enhanced its GO!Enterprise Office solution by integrating the SmartOffice Secure Office SDK, delivering a secure productivity suite for document viewing, editing, annotation and print functionality to end users. The flexibility of Secure Office SDK allows Globo to provide the same suite of secure office features to its users across multiple devices and platforms with reduced development times.

Secure Office integration boosts Globo’s GO!Enterprise Office position in the secure mobile productivity space. Through Secure Office, Globo has access to extensive APIs that enable the provision of user permissions and true secure access to corporate data. Enterprise IT administrators can limit data leakage through the control of per-user permissions, a core feature of the Secure Office SDK.

“GO!Enterprise is focused on providing enterprises with secure access to their business data and on mobile productivity”, said Trevor Goldberg, Director, Strategic Alliances of Globo. “SmartOffice is one of the most popular enterprise-grade secure productivity solutions, based on technology already delivered to more than 700m mobile devices and its addition within our GO!Enterprise Mobile Client will extend the user experience and productivity and increase our product value.”

“We are delighted to be partnering with such an internationally recognized organization.” said Majid Anwar, Chief Scientist of SmartOffice. “Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) practiced in enterprises is, while a well defined concept, still in its infancy in terms of how it is implemented. Many solutions preach security when it is often not the case. Our Secure Office SDK uses proprietary technology, which truly is secure on any device. Globo chose us for that reason and I look forward to our working together throughout 2013 and beyond.”

Deployment of SmartOffice secure document viewing and editing in GO!Enterprise Office is expected during Q2 2013.

Smart Office is a popular business and productivity application available on iOS, Android, Amazon, BlackBerry and many more app stores/platforms. Users from 230 regions around the globe have downloaded Smart Office on their smartphone and tablet to take advantage of its powerful viewing, editing and printing features, which include adding shapes and images to Microsoft® PowerPoint, export to Adobe® PDF and printing to over 3000 devices without the need to install a separate driver.

Smart Office has seen huge growth in its app store download numbers and retention of those users.  Across all app stores, there is a consistent retention rate of over 86%. On iOS alone, the recent version 2.1 update saw over 1.9 million updates in the first 3 days of availability. In February, Smart Office was the #1 business app in 60 countries and a top 5 business app in 95 countries on Apple iTunes.

Over 4000 different device types, smartphones and tablets, have been registered with SmartOffice. Notably, however, around 70% of registered users have Apple® devices, most of which are iPads. In March, an average of 52, 000 users per day utilized Smart Office to access, view and edit documents, which indicates ‘going mobile’ is a frequent habit.

“Firstly we’d like to thank our users for their support and continued use of our products. It is exciting but not surprising to see a significant increase in our app store downloads.” Said Andrew Paul, Services Director, SmartOffice Technologies. “We have been aware of shifting user behavior toward BYOD and end users looking for ways to be more productive when mobile for some time. While we use the term prosumer to describe our users, we understand it is not clear-cut. Our users have one life and multiple personas - switching between personal use and professional use. Our technology aims to meet those needs of whichever persona a user is at any time - parent, student, professional - and we’ll continue to develop it to ensure we meet their needs well into the future.”

SmartOffice released an update for iOS and Android users during mid February to include retina display support and other high-resolution devices, Box cloud storage integration and PDF annotation, an exclusive feature for Enterprise customers.

SmartOffice is the leading secure office workflow provider who enables enterprises to quickly deliver and integrate secure mobile office solutions. SmartOffice solutions deliver the richest range of document working functionality, including viewing, editing, printing and annotation of real world documents, which can be seamlessly integrated into partner solutions. A key constituent to what is termed the ‘Real-time Enterprise,’ SmartOffice’s technology is present in more than 600 million devices today and is rapidly becoming the mobile office provider of choice to the enterprise.

Rover has integrated SecureOffice Platform with Rover Docs. Rover chose SecureOffice Platform due to ease of integration and simple delivery to their end users. Only one instance of SecureOffice Platform is required per operating system to support hundreds of screen sizes and form factors. This increases implementation efficiencies as well as reducing support costs.

Integrating with SecureOffice Platform gives Rover access to a wide range of services that enable the provision of user permissions and secure access to corporate data using Rover Docs. Corporate IT administrators can limit data leakage through the control of per-user permissions, a core feature of the SecureOffice Platform.

“Rover now offers enterprises a best-of-breed solution for secure mobile information access”, said Jonathan Foulkes, Rover Apps CEO. “The fact that Secure Office Platform capability resides in its own secure container gives IT the tight control it needs over enterprise information assets – without having to manage the entire device – while presenting those capabilities intuitively as a native app to users.”

“In the mobile enterprise world, real-time users need to view and edit corporate documents securely and efficiently on their devices of choice.” said Imran Khand, CEO of SmartOffice. “Our technology partnership with Rover not only helps deliver a secure mobile collaboration experience on multiple platforms with fidelity across containers, but also forms a basis for bringing to market future corporate and personal user-led services.”

Rover and SmartOffice will work together throughout 2013 to ensure enterprise users are fully in control of their data. Deployment of SmartOffice secure document viewing and editing in Rover Docs is expected during Q1 2013.
