Love WinZip | TrustRadius

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use WinZip in our corporate environment to help compress and encrypt large files for easier deployment and transfer. WinZip makes SW deployment much easier for our team to manage. This helps drastically in our Device Break/Fix processes where users need to be addressed quickly and efficiently, to be back up and running as soon as possible.
