With Version 4.0 the Safe4 platform, used by professionals in the Legal, Finance, Property and Government sectors to securely transmit documents to clients and business partners has taken a dramatic step into the future.

The Provider user interface for Safe4 has changed substantially, and the system has been enhanced in a number of ways.  The major changes are:

  • For users with more than one Provider account, these are now shown with appropriate branding on the Home screen
  • Clients are listed directly you enter the Safe4 Provider screen
  • The Provider functions that were previously accessed through tabs are now contained within the panel to the left of the screen
  • Performance has been further improved
  • A new title bar has been added at the top of the screen, with access to History, Notifications, Help and My Account
  • The My Account option now includes the logout facility
  • It is possible to place a link to an external website, together with the ability to carry across an account number, on the Files and Folders section visible to each client
  • The Provider management console now allows Provider users to upload logos to personalise the branding of the system
  • Users will now have the ability to restore recently-deleted files into the folder from which they were deleted
  • The file upload process has been made faster and more secure
  • Folder management buttons are now shown in the Folders panel, to the left of the screen

Importantly, Safe4 now has the option of enabling access through WebDAV (Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning).  This means that Safe4 can be made visible to users through Windows as a mapped drive, and through mobile devices that support WebDAV, such as the Apple iPad.  Safe4 are offering a service to assist you to set up this facility if you wish your users to access the Safe4 service in this way.
