WinZip today announces WinZip® Mac 3, an all-new file sharing app that makes it simple to manage, protect and share files across email and the cloud. With direct support for Dropbox and Google Drive, powerful file protection and a legendary Zip engine, WinZip Mac 3 is the essential companion for all your file sharing needs. WinZip Mac 3 is now available on the Mac App Store and directly from WinZip at www.winzip.com/mac.

WinZip Mac 3 makes cloud file sharing safe and easy:

  • Secure sharing in the cloud: With direct support for Dropbox and Google Drive, protect your files before they are uploaded to the cloud with 128- or 256-bit AES encryption. Zip files in your accounts, save zipped files to your accounts, and unzip files to your accounts directly from WinZip. Save on storage costs by zipping the files you store and share.

  • Manage your cloud accounts: View and organize the files you've saved on Dropbox and Google Drive. Use the new Cloud Picker to see your cloud files, rename files and folders, delete files, add zipped files and more - all from within WinZip.

  • New! Cloud Links: Quickly send links to your cloud files by email.

  • Updated UI and new shortcuts: Context-sensitive toolbars display the right tools for zipping and unzipping, working with your cloud accounts, and sending Cloud Links. New shortcuts speed your workflow as you save, zip and share.

WinZip Mac 3 integrates with the Mac OS X Quick Look tool, enabling you to browse the contents of a Zip file before it is unzipped. With support for Zip, Zipx, RAR, LHA, 7Z, JAR, and WAR formats, WinZip makes it easy to open any compressed file you receive, regardless of the platform it was created on. With WinZip apps for Mac, iPad and iPhone, WinZip makes it safe and easy to share files on all your favorite Apple devices.

"The way we share and collaborate has changed dramatically as we turn to the cloud to store and exchange files. And while we enjoy how easy it is, many users are also concerned about the security of their information. WinZip gives you the features you need to rest easy when you store and share - fast access to your cloud files, powerful privacy protection, and smaller files that reduce storage costs and speed sharing. It's the ideal companion for Mac users who want the convenience of easy sharing while keeping their files safe from prying eyes," said Patrick Nichols, President of WinZip.
