Jumpshare : view uploaded files in a web browser
https://jumpshare.com/
Jumpshare converts your files and optimizes them for viewing in all web browsers
Imagine if every file you share could be viewed online, if every desktop, smartphone and tablet could open the files irrespective of the platform they are running. No need to download the files, no need to install third-party apps to view them. Technology should do the work for you.
At Jumpshare, we’ve build a solution that makes it possible to view over 200 file formats online. This does away with all third-party apps built to help you view the files. Jumpshare is a single destination where you can share and view all types of files online – and in coming future – gather feedback and collaborate with people.
ile sharing services only transfer files from one point to another, or store them in the cloud and sync them to a desktop. This has remained unchanged over the past few years and that’s why Jumpshare was developed. It’s a faster way to share files where anyone with a link can view the files online without having to open it using third party desktop apps. Jumpshare has effectively made downloading a secondary option.
