Introducing Here™: The Enterprise Browser for Productivity
Recent studies have found that toggling between an ever-increasing number of apps and websites at work is an enormous productivity hit for enterprises. The "toggle tax" costs organizations millions annually in lost productive time. On average, users toggle up to 1,200 times a day, losing about four hours per week in productivity and using up to two hours a day searching for information in different apps. Constant rekeying of information between apps wastes additional productive time and introduces significant operational risk.
"The growing enterprise browser market has a massive missing piece: a clear focus on improving worker productivity and employee experience. In today's market environment, companies can no longer afford to operate with the inefficient paradigm of browsers that were designed to surf the public internet," said . "The time has come for a better solution in the enterprise: run Here for work apps and embrace Edge or Chrome for everything else."
Built on Google Chromium, Here Enterprise Browser improves productivity across industries for knowledge workers, from call center agents to healthcare professionals to wealth managers and beyond. Some of the core functionality provided by Here includes:
"Here is uniquely positioned to win in the enterprise browser space with its established track-record in financial services," said . "Since leading its Series A, we've been impressed by the company's success in collaborating with the largest banks to meet their needs for productivity, security and compliance."
Here already provides productivity technology to 90% of global financial institutions. Its technology has also generated interest from the government sector through its strategic partnership with IQT (In-Q-Tel), the not-for-profit strategic investor serving the national security community of the U.S. and its allies.
"We see broad applicability for Here's productivity technology within the national security community and the government sector more generally," said . "The platform provides unique capabilities for unifying workflows across disparate applications and data sources, allowing agencies to improve user experience for government workers and enhance their effectiveness."
The company is also backed by other leading VCs and strategic investors from the financial sector and most recently completed its Series D funding round.
