AeroFS Launches Industry's First Free Private Cloud Collaboration Solution for Enterprise Workgroups

PALO ALTO, Calif., March 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- AeroFS, a leading provider of private cloud collaboration services, today launched the industry's first free private cloud solution designed for enterprise workgroups. The offering is breaking new ground for how private cloud services are priced, delivered, marketed and sold. Up to 30 users can tap into the power of the AeroFS enterprise file sync and share platform without sacrificing the security and compliance requirements of their IT departments.

"Consumer freemium models have given rise to Shadow IT. These models have enticed teams to bring in unauthorized solutions, such as Dropbox, into the workplace because of their desire to skip the usual corporate bureaucracy frustrations associated with purchasing software in a large enterprise. We believe the time is right to take a similar approach to how we price and sell services into the enterprise, and put an end to the Shadow-IT threat," said Yuri Sagalov, CEO of AeroFS. "By allowing teams and workgroups to deploy AeroFS for free up to 30 users, managers are able to skip cumbersome company purchasing processes that often take months. Instead, they're able to immediately use a solution the IT department will actually endorse because all data will remain securely behind the corporate firewall."

The new AeroFS private cloud offering gives teams with up to 30 people free, unlimited access to the on-premises solution that currently costs $15 per month per user. Some of the benefits of the AeroFS private cloud offering include:

• Easily deployed behind a company firewall;
• Centrally secured and manageable from an administrative dashboard;
• Guaranteed end-to-end encryption and private certificate authority; and
• Data leakage prevention through remote revocation and deletion authority, especially in the event of a lost or stolen device.

AeroFS customers include leading companies in the financial services, healthcare, professional services, automotive, creative and education spaces. For more information about AeroFS and to download the free enterprise cloud solution, visit www.aerofs.com.
