Tuesday, February 28, 2012:
nivio, hot on the heels of its US launch, today at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, announced the beta launch of its European service that brings Windows to all your favorite connected devices. Through nivio, users have access to the nApps Store where they can rent applications, such as the complete Microsoft productivity suite, and take advantage of 10GB of upgradeable, free synchronized storage. nivio is accessible from any iOS, Android, Mac, Windows or Linux device, including iPads, Android tablets, PCs and laptops.

The full scoop
nivio removes all the complicated parts of using a computer and makes it simple and affordable, leaving the user to pay only for what is needed. Users can access nivio through a range of downloadable client applications or direct from an HTML5 browser, and the first 30 days is free of charge.
The nDrive ensures all devices have an offline copy of documents and lets you share files, pictures, and other documents with friends and work colleagues. The nDesktop allows users to simply switch on and access their full MS Windows desktop in seconds, and nivio’s on-demand nApps store gives access to the latest versions of the world’s most popular software, including Microsoft Office. Every software title comes with a 30-day free trial too, so users can test apps before purchasing.
Any connected HTML5 device. Literally.
Aside from its array of installable rich client Apps on various platforms (Windows, Mac, Android and iOS) nivio supports "Ubiquitous" access to desktop, data and applications in the cloud using a completely immersive HTML5 experience that needs no client installation; thereby making any device the route to your own personalised desktop.
When you are on your own device, you can use the nivio rich clients to take away all the pain and cost of computer ownership, placing the software and operating environment on nivio’s powerful cloud.
Pay-as-you-go in a mobile world
After a 30-day free trial, nivio offers a month-to-month plan to suit the needs of all users. As a special offer to Beta programme customers, prices start at just €2 per month for children, students or academics and €5 per month for regular users, allowing up to 10 hours of usage.
Standard, all you can eat pricing starts from €15 per month and includes 10GB of free storage and nDrive to ensure users can effortlessly synchronize their data across all their devices.
Beating the drum
Quickly following nivio’s US "complete your apple" launch earlier this year, and the closing of a round of funding that secured $21million of fresh investment, British born entrepreneur of Indian origin, Sachin Dev Duggal and co-founder Saurabh Pradeep Dhoot saw Mobile World Congress as the perfect opportunity to open the European Service and its Ubiquity client that supports access on all devices.
“2012 is not like any other year; it’s the year your desktop moves to the cloud, the year you find your freedom; the year your Smartphone becomes your desktop," said Dev Duggal. "Bid goodbye to tired old technology and welcome the future of computing - one where you rent, use and forget... worrying about maintenance was so 2011," he added.
"Microsoft is committed to supporting the efforts of our partners, including nivio, as it launches a global desktop product with which users can experience Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office across all operating platforms," said a spokesperson for Partner Hosting and Cloud Services at Microsoft. "This product is a clear sign of nivio's commitment to serving its SMB customers and providing the latest solutions."
nivio continues to invite discussions on channel opportunities with operators, resellers and retailers.
Users may visit www.nivio.com for more information or to register for the free beta. For a limited time, registrants who recommend Facebook friends into the trial will receive preferential ranking for their beta start date.
