What's New in Version 12.1?

Need More Control? – Add Workflow Approval for “Managed Folders”

(Available in Desktop and Web)

Drive owners can select user or group to review & approve before access is granted.

Introduced during our v10.3 release, the Workflow Approval for Share has been a popular feature to prevent unauthorised file shares. Since then, customers requested to have this control when sharing “Managed Folders” too. Hence, in v12.1, we are extending this feature to “Manage Folders”!

Drive owners now have the power to add this new control, ensuring that any permissions assigned are reviewed and approved before access is granted. With the importance of access control being a part of a robust cybersecurity strategy, this empowerment for drive owners will help safeguard organisation’s digital assets.

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words – Dashboard for Administrators!

(Available in CAWeb)

Admin can have a quick dashboard view of key data points of EasiShare users & usage.

Our EasiShare CAWeb Portal is designed to provide Administrators with a segregated and secure portal for privileged activities such as user and group management. For large organisations, it can often be time-consuming for Administrators to plough through details when trying to do a quick health check of the system.

This is why we are introducing a simple Dashboard in v12.1 which gives a quick overview of some key data points of EasiShare users and usage. This will be a great starting point to identify that large drive that is consuming excessive storage resources, and work with data owners to optimize consumption, saving time and money!

Love ploughing through details? Fret not, EasiShare Audit Logs are always available for that detailed-oriented investigation or troubleshooting.
