Don’t expect that the volume of content will diminish any time soon. 

One of the biggest culprits of the information overload is email. Many of us are already slaves to email.  We use our inbox as a filing cabinet. This behaviour can be difficult to change. 
“If I need to share a document with Mary, I’ll email  it to her”. This is a 30 year habit which a technology such as ftopia seeks to break. By saving the documents centrally, the volume and sizes of emails is reduced and users feel less inclined to keep duplicates of data on their PC’s and laptops.

 ftopia is ideal for sharing content of the following types:

•  Documents
• PDF’s
• Presentations
• Spreadsheets
• .. and much more…

The best evangelists for this new mode of collaboration are those converts from email to central collaboration systems like ftopia. They can see that this is a significant advancement in document sharing compared to email. Grab that inbox by the horns and add a line to your email signature like:

“if you think the attachment is too big, it probably is. Let’s share it on ftopia”.

“All I want is:”

• To be able to exchange documenation in a secure and auditable way
• To be “up and running” in 5 minutes
• To be self-sufficient without the help of anyone from an IT department!

The common issues:

• Hardware costs
• Software costs
• Authentication(how do we know who they are?)
• User training(it has to be simple)
• Impact on existing IT resources
• I haven’t the time to be dealing with all of this!

Traditional solutions to this have been expensive to procure and difficult to manage. Who for example, would manage permissions on the sites? IT? Surely they are busy enough!

The game has moved on.With the advent of software “in the cloud”, organisations of all sizes are continually putting their faith in hosted solutions such as ftopia. With ftopia, businesses or professionals can create secure data rooms into which they can place documents and administer the access to those documents. Remember, email is not secure. Give your colleagues and business partners the “single version of the truth” in terms of a single instance of the documents. Give them ftopia.
