ZeroDesktop

ZeroDesktop, Inc. is a global provider of Cloud Desktop solutions that change the way users access and share their digital content with friends, family and colleagues. ZeroDesktop was founded with the vision of providing a “one virtual desktop per person” solution to a global problem of users’ digital content becoming scattered across many Web-enabled devices, Web services and social sites with different logins and passwords.

Technology has given people numerous digital devices, Web services and social media sites with many logins and varying user interfaces. Most computer users store most of their content in files and folders on their primary PCs, but they are also storing content in other devices and on the Internet. As a result, their digital content has become scattered and it can feel overwhelming to find, manage and share all of their files, documents, emails, photos, videos, music and social content.

ZeroDesktop’s flagship product, ZeroPC, bridges the gap between the Internet and computers. This innovative cloud content navigator turns a browser into a familiar PC providing a fully-integrated, fully-functional cloud desktop experience. ZeroPC connects the user’s cross-platform content regardless of where it is stored, making content accessible using a browser on any device (desktop, laptop, netbook, tablet, smartphone) where they can easily search, analyze, navigate, backup and share cloud content from a single site with a single login. ZeroPC delivers the most comprehensive and functional virtual desktop in the cloud with its rich combination of Web apps, local apps and native apps ranging from productivity tools and collaboration to social networks.

ZeroDesktop also designed ZeroPC to address the computing needs of emerging countries as a free or cost-efficient solution. These people often do not have the luxury of owning computers and depend on shared computing resources such as Internet cafes, libraries, community centers or a local YMCA. In many cases, these people must carry USB storage devices containing their content in order to work, study or access the Internet. ZeroPC eliminates that need by providing each user with ‘ownership’ of his or her virtual desktop in the cloud that consolidates all of their personal documents, files, photos, videos, music and other content, and makes it easy and secure to access from any browser, anywhere, at any time.

ZeroDesktop, Inc. developed its flagship product, ZeroPC, to bridge the gap between Internet and computers. This innovative cloud content navigator turns a browser into a familiar PC providing a fully-integrated, fully-functional cloud desktop experience. ZeroPC connects the user’s cross-platform content regardless of where it is stored, making content accessible using a browser on any device (desktop, laptop, netbook, tablet, smartphone) where they can easily search, analyze, navigate, backup and share cloud content from a single site with a single login.

ZeroPC2.0 delivers the most comprehensive and functional virtual desktop in the cloud with its rich combination of Web apps, local apps and native apps ranging from productivity tools and collaboration to social networks. It features a universal search engine that lets users enter keywords, tags, names or places to navigate throughout all files, folders, documents, photos, video, music and typically hard-to-find social content stored in popular sites including Box.net, Dropbox, Evernote, Facebook, Flickr, Google Docs, Instagram, Picasa and SugarSync. All of the user’s digital content from these sites is managed under one digital roof in their ZeroPC cloud account. Users can simply drag and drop their content to manage between services through ZeroPC’s familiar interface without needing to open multiple browsers.

Without leaving ZeroPC, users can then select and view content from its original site, edit, move, share or backup single folders or do a comprehensive backup. ZeroPC provides users with 1GB of free general cloud storage, plus up to 59GB of integrated access from other popular cloud storage services.

After users decide to move their valuable content to the cloud, it is essential that they have powerful tools for protecting, managing and sharing the data they create and store so it is safe and accessible whenever and wherever they need it. ZeroPC helps users unscatter their digital content regardless of where it resides with an easy, fully-integrated personal cloud desktop experience.

ZeroPC simplifies finding, managing, accessing and sharing all of a user’s files, documents, emails, photos, music, videos and social media content from a single site with a single ZeroPC login, without needing to learn and remember multiple user interfaces and passwords. Users can choose between a “Freemium” plan or a flexible pay-as-you-go plan for power users who need extra storage and expanded features.
