Briefcase Factory Demo - the well known File and Document Sharing Component for Joomla.
Briefcase Factory is the only Joomla equivalent for Yahoo's Briefcase - A well known approach to document and file sharing. Users can Upload their Files and share them with other users or with specific assigned User groups. This way you can manage an easy to administrate Document sharing system that features email notifications, limited download times (for instance you can make some limited offers, and bind users to your website) |
|
The user interface is intuitive, AJAX driven, therefore page reloads are minimized to improve productivity. You can ADD more than one file at a time; number can be set in admin backend. The uploaded Files can be SHARED with one/more users, one/more groups, all users, or with the public (registered and unregistered users). |
To test the frontend functionalities use any of the users on the Quick login buttons. Share files, test downloads, upload files if needed.
You can also check out the administrator backend - click the button on the left or above
