Introducing WinZip® 20, the new file management and file sharing applications that give Windows users a familiar environment to work with all their files no matter where they're stored, easily add powerful encryption, and quickly share with contacts. As users' reliance on multiple cloud services, social media platforms and messaging systems becomes increasingly complex, WinZip® 20 makes it simple to take charge of your digital life and protect your privacy from online threats and hacks.
"Managing, saving and sharing your files has never been more complicated. Files are saved everywhere and then we add email, social media and IM to the mix. The convenience of the cloud is great, but it seems we're constantly hearing about more private info that's been exposed," said Bill Richard, VP of development of WinZip. "With WinZip 20, we're giving you a single environment to work seamlessly with all your files, protect your information, and share in just a few clicks. WinZip makes it easy to take control and make order out of the chaos."
WinZip 20 is available in three versions, WinZip 20, WinZip 20® Pro, and WinZip® 20 Enterprise. New features include:
- New! More robust file management: WinZip 20 offers centralized file management via a new File Management ribbon and quick access to all your files on your PC, network, Windows homegroup and cloud services. Easily find your most-used files and folders in Frequent Folders, updating dynamically. Open and edit files from within WinZip. Create folders on your PC, network and cloud services. Wipe files and folders for secure deletion. Copy, move, delete and multi-rename files wherever they are, and more.
- New! More sharing options: WinZip 20 offers new support for YouTube, Twitter IM, Office 365 groups, in addition to Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Talk/Google+ Hangouts, Yahoo! Messenger and Jabber. Easily email large files and share via your cloud accounts. Select your files, set encryption and conversion preferences, and choose your sharing options, all in one place.
