InformationWeek - Glide Challenges Microsoft Office

 

Glide’s Security Features Dwarf Microsoft

 

Like Microsoft Office 2007, the Glide office applications have foregone the menu bar in favor a ribbon divided up by task; however, I found Glide's design was cleaner and easier to use.

 

Glide clearly separates itself from Microsoft Office 2007 with its security features, which far outdo just about any other tools on the market.

 

Business users will appreciate the seamless integration between the mobile and desktop versions. The mobile side has been designed to do tasks with finger taps, making it a great match for the iPhone, and any changes you make to your documents on the mobile side sync instantly with the desktop.

 

It would be remiss to have a review of Glide without discussing how well it handles media files whether it's video or audio, regardless of the format. You simply send a media file to a recipient and apply whatever rights you want (just as with a document); Glide ships the file with its own media player.

 

Summary:

 

"Glide overall offers a great package with security that dwarfs offerings from Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) and other competitors."
