"With a vast majority of organizations saying information mobility is necessary for their employees, Syncplicity helps us give customers a solution with enhanced security that not only helps remote and mobile workforces access information, but allows them to create, edit, and collaborate on content from mobile devices," said Jason Dizzine, Director, Product Marketing, Ricoh Americas Corporation.
