SavvyDox Launches Game-Changing, Mobile Document Management Solution


Ottawa, ON (PRWEB) June 11, 2013

SavvyDox today announced the first commercial release of a cloud-based, mobile document management solution, SavvyDox 1.0. – a product that transforms tablet document interaction.

SavvyDox transforms tablet document interaction from primarily one of serial reading and consumption to one that provides the tablet device user with a new level of intelligent interaction with documents including highlighting revisions at the word and paragraph level, version sensitivity, changed content navigation, interaction with peer recipients and authors, shared annotations, and active and dynamic content.

SavvyDox solves tablet document management issues for enterprises, government and publishers, all within an enterprise grade, private, hybrid or public cloud based secure infrastructure. It is an elegant solution for anyone requiring always-on, always up-to-date, mobile access to revised document details.

The application is available from the App Store and the Windows Store and operates in conjunction with a server-based license available from SavvyDox.

“Our product highlights revisions at the bottom of the document with distinctive thumbnails – icons that resemble a page and identify where the revisions are in the document. Instead of reading the whole document you just tap on the page thumbnail and it takes you right to the exact location of the revision. No other product in this market segment does that,” said Hans Downer, President and CEO of SavvyDox.

SavvyDox supports “collaborative review” – parallel document review and comments from several recipients on a team improving synergy in the review process. In this mode, the author retains “ownership of the pen”, which allows only that person to modify the document. The author is also provided with analytic compliance reports identifying which recipients have read which pages of a document based on an author-supplied parameter.

During testing, users with iPad-based readers were fully productive within ten minutes of viewing a short training video. Testing also proved that the application integrates easily into the business environment since it accepts documents from MS Word, MS PowerPoint, or any document in PDF format.

The 30-person team testing the solution in California published 150 documents with over 250 revisions in a three-month period. The project team improved overall productivity since they no longer needed a 10-15 minute project review to bring everyone up to speed on the current plan.

In the Ottawa pilot, the national health care group entered over 300 comments on one 540-page document during a three-week period.

SavvyDox has confirmed a first order from a large Canadian systems integrator in early May and more recently a follow up order from a California county government. The systems integrator will use the solution to provide differentiated services to their clients on major projects in two other county governments in California and two large projects with another state government.

The solution had been in beta test since January 2013. A second pilot started in April of this year with a national healthcare group based in Ottawa, Ontario.

“We’re very pleased with the progress of the solution and the feedback from customers and investors. Our pilot customers have been extremely positive in their comments about how our product has addressed their business needs”, Downer said.

SavvyDox has raised a total of $ 1.25 million to date from Canadian Angel Investors and has received approval for a Canadian Federal Government loan of up to $ 1 million based on the amount of Angel investing received. SavvyDox just opened their third funding round of $ 625,000, which is expected to close quickly.

Kwiksher Mobile Publishing Company Adds New Executives to Continue Rapid Growth

Coral Springs, FL (PRWEB) June 25, 2013

Kwiksher, makers of the Kwik plugin for creating mobile storybook apps, announced today that they have named investor David Porras as their new COO and added mobile gaming veteran Carlos Icaza to their board of advisors.

David will head all operations at Kwiksher to help manage and continue the company’s current pace of rapid growth. His past experience funding successful mobile startups and positions at top-tier organizations like the Burger King Corporation and Wells Fargo Bank in North America were especially enticing to Kwiksher founder Alex Souza when looking for ways to push the company forward.

“Since we first launched in May 2011, we’ve seen hundreds of apps created with Kwik,” said Souza. “And now, it’s an indescribable honor to have David and Carlos on-board to help us grow even faster! Both of their experience in the mobile space will allow Kwiksher to speed up the development of new products and services, and ultimately provide our users with the better overall experiences.”

Kwik users already may know Carlos Icaza from his previous tenure as co-founder/CEO of Corona Labs (née Ansca Mobile) when the partnership between Kwiksher and Corona Labs was initially formed. Carlos now will serve as an advisor to Kwiksher, drawing upon his current experience as CEO of the Lanica mobile game development platform and past experience in heading up Adobe’s mobile Flash unit. Under Carlos’ leadership, Corona Labs saw their user base increase by more than 150,000 users.

Together, David and Carlos will help commandeer Kwiksher to help users fully realize their creative visions.

“The main goal with Kwiksher now is to make rich, interactive content and apps a reality for every single person that wants to share their vision with the world,” explained Porras. “We know that a lot of people want to harvest their creativity, and we want to provide them with all the tools necessary to do so successfully.”

Kwik currently is available for users of Adobe Photoshop CS5 (or higher) and Corona SDK.

Chimani Celebrates National Park Week with the Release of Five New National Park Mobile Apps and New Innovative Features


Yarmouth, ME (PRWEB) April 16, 2013

Chimani announced today a range of products and new features to enhance national park visitors experiences while in the parks. The announcement coincides with the celebration of this year’s National Park Week, which runs from April 22-26.

In honor of each of the five days of National Park Week – a new park app will be released for each day. The new Chimani mobile apps include Grand Teton National Park, Glacier National Park, Olympic National Park, Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, and Bryce Canyon National Park. These, as well as all other Chimani apps, will be available for free on Apple iTunes, Google Play, and Amazon AppStore starting Monday, April 22 – the first day of National Park Week.

Each new national park app includes all the core technologies which has made Chimani the #1 mobile app platform for visiting national parks. The new park apps continue Chimani’s goal for helping visitors get the most out of their national park experience.

Each app delivers constantly updated content, detailed maps, ranger-led event schedules, auto touring points of interest, hiking details, restroom locations, free shuttle bus schedules, and breaking news alerts. Users can also view sunset and sunrise times for the most memorable scenic overlooks, access tide schedules along the coast, review lodging options, and much, much more. And as always, each Chimani app is designed to work without a cell phone signal.

Chimani’s Viewport Augmented Reality Tool

Chimani’s new Viewport tool – an augmented reality viewer available as a $ 1.99 in-app purchase – allows users to access an entirely new layer of information as part of their park experience. “Whether it’s the South Rim of the Grand Canyon or Glacier Point in Yosemite, visitors often overlook the richness that surrounds these dramatic viewpoints,” says Kerry Gallivan, CEO/co-founder of Chimani. “Using Chimani’s Viewport tool, visitors can pan around the scenic outlook and identify points of interest which are often left undiscovered. It is yet another Chimani tool that allows visitors to get the most of their park experience,” says Kerry.

Cell phone signals are poor and non-existent in most national parks, therefore Chimani apps are designed to function without any type of data connection. This ability also applies to the new Chimani augmented reality viewer – visitors can be in the most remote corners of a park and still discover new points of interest.

Crowd-sourced topographic maps

Chimani continues its innovation in mobile mapping technology for the outdoors by introducing topographic maps based on data from Openstreetmaps.org – the largest online mapping project in the world. Chimani is now able to produce rich topographic maps which are updated monthly with the most recent data available for park visitors.

“Chimani users are now able to actively contribute to the national park community and help build better geo-spatial data for each of the parks,” says Kerry Gallivan. “A great example of this is Openstreetmaps.org’s user Tomthepom who spent the winter meticulously editing the park data within Grand Canyon. Thanks to Tom, the data found within the Chimani maps is the most detailed and up-to-date available anywhere – digital or print,” says Kerry.

Many visitors don’t realize how often trail data changes so having access to the latest details helps enhance the park experience.

Social-sharing using Near Field Communication (NFC) technology

For the Android versions of the apps, Chimani has introduced a beta feature of a social-sharing tool that uses Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to connect with other Chimani users and share contact information. “We modeled this feature after the tradition on the Appalachian Trail of exchanging something with people that you meet on the trail,” says, Kerry Gallivan. By touching two Android phones together, the users profile is exchanged using NFC. No cell phone signal is required and when the exchange occurs within a particular park, a unique badge is unlocked between users as a bonus.

Chimani’s suite of National Park Apps

The Chimani suite of national park apps include 14 of the most visited national parks in the United States. These include Acadia National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Cape Cod National Seashore, Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Glacier National Park, Grand Canyon National Park, Grand Teton National Park, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Olympic National Park, Rocky Mountain National Park, Yellowstone National Park, Yosemite National Park, Zion National Park and the National Parks app – which is a virtual passport tool for all the National Park Service units.

Each of the national park apps are an indispensable resource for anyone visiting our most treasured national parks. Each delivers constantly updated content, ranger-led event schedules, auto touring points of interest, hiking details, restroom locations, free shuttle bus schedules, and breaking news alerts. Users can also view sunset and sunrise times for the most memorable scenic overlooks, access tide schedules along the coast, review lodging options, and much, much more.

The Chimani apps are available for the iPhone, iPad, Amazon Kindle and Android devices. They can be downloaded directly from Apple’s iTunes App Store, Google Play and Amazon AppStore (keyword: “chimani”).
