Two of the most popular feature requests for Shareflow have been easier ways to upload files and more ways to receive notifications when new content is posted.  We hear you loud and clear! That’s why we built the Shareflow Desktop client.

Shareflow Desktop is a great way to get files from your desktop into Shareflow, where your group can access them easily.  All you have to do is drag the files you want to share into the Shareflow Desktop window, select the flow to upload them to from the drop-down list, and click ‘post’.  It’s that easy to start sharing files on Shareflow.

Shareflow Desktop makes it even easier to keep up with all your important communication on Shareflow by providing ‘always-on’ notifications even when you don’t have your web browser open.  You can use the “recent activity” tab to peruse a listing of the most recent posts comments and files in Shareflow.  Since these updates are downloaded to your computer you can view them even when you don’t have an internet connection.

When another user posts in one of your flows, Shareflow Desktop will alert you to the new post with an orange indicator on the recent activity tab.

You can choose to add additional notifications like playing a sound or animating the Shareflow Desktop icon when updates arrive.  All of this is available in the settings panel.  Just click on the options icon to set your preferred notifications.

Shareflow Desktop collapses down to a small form-factor so you can leave it running and it won’t get in the way of your other applications.  You can still drag in files and view notifications while the application is collapsed.

We built Shareflow Desktop with the cross platform Adobe Air Runtime, which means you can use it on Windows, Mac, or Linux.  A one click installer will guide you through the simple installation process.

Check us out on the Adobe Air Marketplace or the Shareflow Desktop homepage to download your copy today.

Thanks again for using Shareflow and keep the feedback coming.  We’re listening!
