10 December 2024 – Leading provider of secure maritime data communications software, GTMaritime, has launched a new remote access feature for GTMailPlus which allows users to access their emails from anywhere, even if their onboard systems are offline.
A recent Uptime Institute report revealed that 35% of businesses had experienced outages lasting more than eight hours in the last five years, with 54% reporting their most recent outage cost as over $100,000.
Available as standard to GTMailPlus customers, GTMailPlus Cloud Access enables seamless real-time synchronisation between ship and shore, ensuring uninterrupted communications for vessel operators. Users always have access to their emails from any device â desktop, tablet, or mobile â from anywhere in the world, without any need for additional back-up solutions.
The secure webmail-based service is hosted within GTMaritimeâs cloud infrastructure and requires no additional hardware or software. Customers can access their webmail anywhere, at any time, using their existing credentials, with customisable storage aligned with the userâs archiving settings. Automated mailbox synchronisation eliminates confusion and minimises strain on IT resources.
Jamie Jones, Operations Director at GTMaritime, said: âIn todayâs increasingly digitalised shipping industry, maintaining email access is crucial for keeping business operations up and running. With GTMailPlus Cloud Access, shipowners can stay connected anywhere, on any device to ensure that business operations run smoothly, with users retaining access to both live and historical emails even during system downtime.â
GTMailPlus Cloud Access is now available to GTMailPlus customers worldwide. For more information about GTMailPlus and other GTMaritime solutions, visit gtmaritime.com.
