CompuTrolley.com has extended its existing product portfolio with the addition of Quick View Plus from Avantstar, a product that makes universal information access a reality.
By providing instant access to information created in over 225 Windows, Macintosh, Internet and DOS formats, Quick View Plus enables employees to access information from virtually any source - e-mail attachments, the Web, legacy document stores and more. As native applications are not needed to open files, this product reduces costs, simplifies deployment and improves security.
"Quick View Plus allows users to efficiently work with information by providing a consistent environment for viewing, copying, printing and searching of information. Whether accessing e-mail attachments, documents on the Web, or files stored on a file system, its interface provides users all the tools they need to access and control information," says Simon Campbell Young, MD of CompuTrolley.com.
Quick View Plus integrates with all information access points including Windows Explorer, major e-mail and groupware clients and popular Web browsers. This integration provides a more efficient way to work, saving both time and resources.
Campbell-Young says despite the availability of security software packages, the latest viruses are not always detected. "Now you can eliminate the danger of a potentially devastating new macro virus being unleashed on your network. All it takes is having Quick View Plus as the default method of viewing e-mail attachments. Viewing is not only safer using this product, but also considerably faster as users do not have to launch individual programs to view files."
With its ability to quickly access disparate information from multiple sources, Quick View Plus extends the capabilities of corporate IT networks and provides users with a consistent window into business knowledge regardless of location, source or format. By providing a quick method to access files, it enhances both the Windows and Unix operating systems. The product already features a substantial international install base, enhancing operations at Shell, Airbus Industry, Mars, European Commission and ICL. "We are certain that the positive response that the product has enjoyed on the international arena will be duplicated locally," comments Campbell-Young.
Installation of Quick View Plus can be as easy as inserting a CD, clicking and deploying. The software offers a variety of installation options for swift enterprise-wide deployment including SMS-enabled client installation and scripted installs. "If installed enterprise-wide, IT departments can use Quick View Plus to ensure that consistent, reliable access to business information will not be compromised by an application software upgrade or other technology changes," concludes Campbell-Young.
