Spoxel Document Management Service Offers New Program Enhancements for Educational Purposes

Schools can receive top of the line document storage at Discounted Rates

Spoxel (http://spoxel.com), an online, Document Storage and Management service for individuals and businesses, announced today a program to give educational users discounted pricing. Under terms of the new program, qualified educational institutions will receive Spoxel’s top-of-the-line “Corporate Server” with 2 GB of storage space at $49 per month. This doubles the storage complement provided in the normal server and represents a 34% discount to its normal pricing.

A Spoxel Server offers the tree-like arrangement of folders and files familiar to Windows Explorer users but with a greatly enhanced ability to annotate, share, tag, preview and search documents online compared with any such desktop-based utility. Typically used by professional organizations which collaborate with both internal and external individuals, Spoxel’s Corporate Server can clearly meet the needs of schools, universities and research organizations for collaboration among its administrative, research and teaching constituencies.

“Spoxel’s use of open source technologies, such as Ruby on Rails and Subversion, give it a next-generation Web 2.0 interface along with the performance, stability, and features needed for an industry-leading document management service. It is the perfect solution for educational sites and the document sharing needs of students within a single school or across schools worldwide,” said Matt White, Spoxel’s Chief Technologist.

“Researchers, teachers and students all create documents they want to post online, making the sharing, discussion and storage requirements of an educational institution surprisingly like those of a typical business,” said John Davidson, Spoxel CEO. “Our academic customers let us know they were looking for the feature set of the Corporate Server but with an extended storage capacity suited for their large body of contributors. We are pleased to meet their needs by offering the product they requested at a very healthy discount.”

To receive the educational discount, a representative of a sponsoring organization can simply indicate during server setup they are part of a qualifying institution. “We are proud to help educational users obtain our industry-leading document management offering in support of the contributions they make to the betterment of our next generation,” added CEO Davidson.
