Monday, August 22nd, 2011

DALLAS, TX – Quickoffice, Inc., the global leader in mobile office productivity solutions, today announced a partnership with Advanced Systems Research Technology Corporation (ASRTCorp), an advanced electronic and software provider. Under the terms of the agreement, Quickoffice is the exclusive mobile Office application embedded on the Vivlio tablet, a device designed for the education market in Asia.

Quickoffice® is the first custom-built productivity suite optimized for Android tablets, which provides feature-rich viewing and editing capabilities of Microsoft® Word, Excel and PowerPoint files. Offering a robust user experience with a single-screen view on tablets, users can intuitively manage and manipulate documents within the app’s proprietary Connected File Manager, which features integrated access to popular cloud storage providers, including Box.net, Dropbox, Google Docs, Huddle, SugarSync and MobileMe. Quickoffice provides an essential utility for education professionals and students, delivering three powerful editors that include advanced features, such as page layout editing, insert/rotate images, formula builders and the ability to create new presentations, all within one easy-to-use application.

Contributing to a unique, comprehensive Android tablet experience, Quickoffice diligently incorporated Google’s native OS elements into its app’s design and interface. Quickoffice provides users easy and intuitive access to common functions when editing content in their Office documents. Quickoffice also supports local and remote search of files for quick location of critical documents on the go, and enables teachers to leverage the tablet’s HDMI output to make presentations in the classroom on larger screens when available.

ASRT’s Vivlio tablet features a multitouch display, includes HDMI, WiFi, Bluetooth and 3G connectivity, and has been designed entirely with students in mind.
