FileFinder Functionality – Desktop vs Browser
What our clients say
“I would absolutely recommend FileFinder Anywhere to other Executive Search firms – it’s a great tool and I cannot imagine executing searches or doing business development without it!”
Scott D. Williams, Managing Director & Founder, BridgeStreet Partners
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
FILEFINDER FOR BROWSER AND FILEFINDER FOR DESKTOP?
Covid-19 has highlighted the importance of remote working options and providing business critical information to staff beyond the traditional office setting. We are very aware that clients are beginning to draw up policies to deal with potential interruptions to their work environment.
With that in mind, we are looking to support our clients should they implement policies that encourage staff to work from home. With browser access, users can access and use FileFinder from any location with Internet access.
There are some differences between browser and desktop access – watch the video above to learn more.
To discuss FileFinder for Browser with your Client Success Manager, please email clientsuccess@ikirupeople.com, or fill in the form above.
