The challenge: Why traditional document sharing falls short

Before we dive into the solution, let’s take a moment to recognize the challenges you’re probably facing. Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Your HR team needs to distribute the updated employee handbook to 5,000+ employees, but creating individual accounts for everyone seems like an administrative nightmare
  • The training department wants to share interactive onboarding materials with new hires, but managing access through unsecured links keeps your IT security team up at night
  • Your internal communications team needs to circulate the monthly company magazine across multiple departments, but the current process is slow and cumbersome
  • The sales team requires instant access to the latest product catalogs, but your VPN solution is creating more friction than flow

Traditional document sharing approaches often force organizations into an uncomfortable choice between security and usability. You might find yourself:

  • Spending countless hours creating and managing individual user accounts
  • Taking risks with unsecured sharing links
  • Wrestling with complex VPN solutions that frustrate your users
  • Dealing with endless password reset requests
  • Managing multiple access points and security protocols

The good news? There’s a better way. Enter Flipsnack’s SSO for Viewers – a feature designed specifically to address these enterprise challenges.
