Youth Frameworks Achieves Mobile, Anytime, Anywhere Access to Large Work Files with Soonr Workplace

Soonr, a leading provider of secure file sharing and collaboration services for business, today announced that non-profit organization Youth Frameworks has selected Soonr Workplace to provide secure file sharing and collaboration for its highly mobile team of inspirational educators, writers, editors and artists. With Soonr Workplace, Youth Frameworks has eliminated the use of cumbersome portable hard drives and automated the sync and sharing of large files across multiple computers.

Established in 1996, Youth Frameworks is a non-profit corporation that provides resources to aid churches in their ministry of spiritual growth and renewal for today’s teenagers. Offering speakers for youth events, Youth Leader training and curriculums for churches and camps, Youth Frameworks helps churches, mission works and ministry events reach young people. The organization also takes teams of people around the U.S. and internationally to assist churches and missionaries in conducting outreach events in their communities.

The staff of Youth Frameworks is a highly mobile team that works with churches and mission programs around the world. As members of the non-profit organization travel they need to bring their work data with them. Among the materials produced by Youth Frameworks’ staff is a published curriculum for Youth Leader training. These materials involve writers, editors and artists that are often in different locations and need to share large files throughout the publishing process.

Before turning to the Soonr Workplace secure file sharing solution, Youth Frameworks used portable hard drives to carry necessary documents on the road and to backup materials while working remotely. But the hard drives simply weren’t solving the non-profit’s true challenge for data access and collaboration. Now, by using Soonr Workplace the non-profit organization never has to worry about losing valuable data in the office or on the road. Files are automatically backed up and synced with other selected computers in real time, so information is always where it’s needed, when it’s needed.

“We either never had enough space on the portable drives or didn’t have them with us when we needed to access files,” said Robert Wallace, President of Youth Frameworks. “But our biggest challenge was the need to access files on various computers. We needed an automated solution that would sync content with all of our computers and allow us to easily collaborate no matter where we were working. Now, we always have access to all of the most up-to-date versions of our files with Soonr. It’s truly hassle free and easy to use.”

Among the Soonr Workplace features Youth Frameworks finds valuable is the file sharing solution’s ability to provide online and offline access to documents with integrated rendering for over 50 different files types. This allows the organization to view its documents without the need for third party applications. Detailed control functionality also allows the non-profit organization to flexibly manage the share, sync and public link permissions for each of its team members.

With Soonr Workplace, Youth Frameworks has seen the following results:

• Mobile, anytime, anywhere access to files
• Seamless data protection
• Automated sync of files across multiple computers
