Central Desktop: Easy Online Collaboration

Central Desktop is an online collaboration software company headquartered in Pasadena, California. Founded in 2005 by Isaac Garcia and Arnulf Hsu, Central Desktop helps people work better together. An alternative to email, SharePoint, and file-sharing websites, Central Desktop's online collaboration platform, SocialBridge, connects teams, content, and customers in the cloud so everyone can get things done together from one private, centralized website.

SocialBridge makes everyone's files, conversations, calendars, and other stuff accessible from anywhere, including the office, home, and even on the go. The platform also speeds up existing business processes by letting users automatically assign tasks, send email reminders, update databases, and route documents for approval. In addition, organizations can use SocialBridge to share and communicate easily with their vendors and clients.

Recognizing that different types of teams work differently, Central Desktop offers SocialBridge in three versions. SocialBridge for Marketers and Agencies are designed to speed up creative approvals and enable teams to work more closely with third parties. SocialBridge Professional lets small businesses operate like a big company without the high price tag. SocialBridge for Enterprise helps business units collaborate across different locations and time zones.

SocialBridge is equipped with numerous useful features, including private workspaces, real-time access to the latest version of files, search, project management, reports, web meetings, and more. With 99.98 percent uptime, SocialBridge is protected by enterprise-grade security provided by Akamai, McAfee, Alchemy Communications, and Corexchange Data Center.

Central Desktop serves more than 500,000 users worldwide daily. Notable customers include Harvard University, the Humane Society of the United States, Upshot, CBS, MLB.com, WD-40, Workday, Moxie, Javelin Marketing Group, and the American Red Cross.

Central Desktop has been named to the Deloitte Technology Fast 500, Inc. 500, Red Herring 100, and InformationWeek Startup 50. The company has also won multiple Stevie Awards and other honors.
