It also empowers organizations to dramatically reduce theinfrastructure costs associated with email attachments.

IT departments can now choose to deploy the Add-In for all of their Syncplicity users or on a group-by-group basis. Similarly, IT can configure Outlook Add-in policies, such as linkexpiration, password protection, and file-level rights management for different user groups, depending on content security and collaboration requirements.
