SAN JOSE, CA and SHANGHAI, CHINA — (Marketwire) — 02/21/12 — Wyse Technology, the global leader in , today announced a product family that redefines content management from the cloud to include both content and apps on one-s own devices and in the public cloud. Since 2009, millions of Wyse PocketCloud users have had the ability to create a personal cloud to run apps and access files across their home and work computers from Android and iOS devices. The expanded product line enables users to create a personal cloud with even more capabilities using current and soon to be released Wyse PocketCloud Apps and Web services.
The Wyse vision is to enable users to enroll any of their devices into their personal cloud and automatically enjoy new abilities to search, view, edit, organize, and share across mobile devices, computers, and cloud services. Consumers can integrate both work and personal devices and computers into their own personal cloud, giving them complete anytime, anywhere access to both applications and content.
The Wyse PocketCloud family now consists of PocketCloud Remote Desktop and PocketCloud Pro Remote Desktop, PocketCloud Explore, and a new PocketCloud Web app and service (entering limited beta). Wyse PocketCloud Web will serve as the center of a constellation of mobile clients, both native and browser-based — with cloud storage and rich browser support that enables users to take personal content management to the next level. Users will easily assemble their own secure personal cloud with a unified view across computers and the Web to access, manage, and share documents, music, videos and images, and run their favorite applications.
As an example of how this can be used, an iPhone user on-the-go wants to find a photo from a recent trip to share with friends, but is unsure whether it-s on her home Mac, Home Theater PC or office VDI desktop. She logs into Wyse PocketCloud Explore on her iPhone and connects to her personal cloud containing all three computers, then enters a search term to find which computer contains the photo. The photo is found on her home Mac, but she notices that the people in it have red-eye, so she opens Adobe Photoshop and edits the photo. She then posts it to her Wyse PocketCloud “Cloudbin” Web storage and shares it through Facebook.
In addition to the convenience of the Wyse PocketCloud personal cloud blending a user-s computers and cloud storage, it also offers security benefits. While having access to public cloud storage is convenient, some users have files that are too sensitive to put out there and others that are too large or too costly, like an entire music or photo collection. Wyse PocketCloud lets you choose what goes into the public cloud and what stays on your computers while giving you full access to both, putting your entire digital life at your finger tips from wherever you are.
“The Wyse PocketCloud brand has always focused on providing users with easy access to the content on their remote computers, and the new Wyse PocketCloud family is the next step in giving users complete control over their personal cloud,” said Daniel Barreto, general manager of mobile cloud business unit at Wyse. “By making a user-s entire digital life easily searchable and utilizing their computer-s storage, as well as cloud storage, we believe Wyse PocketCloud is the most complete, secure, and easy-to-use solution on the market.”
