Axway DropZone™ – Easy, Secure Collaborative File Sharing Inside and Outside the Enterprise

Today’s savvy employee is well aware of the limits around file sharing imposed by their IT department. And when they need to collaborate on projects with colleagues, they will circumvent IT and use whatever tools they prefer in order to get the job done. This often includes turning to unsecured methods and cloud-based file sharing services, which can put shared data, and the company, at risk.

But your organization can have its cake and eat it, too. Axway DropZone™ enables users to easily share files with each other, and with customers and partners, while complying with corporate security and compliance policies.
