A Spanish operating system allows users to gain access to their computers from any other device. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has become a supporter of the company’s technology.

IT users may rely on numerous devices over the course of a day, including laptop and desktop computers, smartphones and tablets. Each of these devices will store specific data and applications that may need to be synchronized or copied elsewhere, which can lead to problems of compatibility. Inevio (previously called WeeZeel) proposes locating entire offices in the cloud. The Spanish firm has designed a solution that saves time and reduces the number of steps required: an operating system that lets people access their computers from any device around the world.

The firm’s practical and innovative idea has reached Boston, where every year MIT organizes a startup accelerator called GFSA (Global Founders’ Skills Accelerator) that brings together groups from MIT itself as well as other institutions from around the world. Inevio is one of the groups that’s been chosen to participate this year.

Without the need for any installation, the tool is accessible from any device with HTML5 and an internet connection. The operating system is 100% social, presented on a webpage that works like a computer.

By only typing in a person’s user name and password, the system provides access to different applications by default.

Last spring, members of the MIT Club of Spain, the school’s local alumni network, searched for groups of entrepreneurs that met the requirements to participate for the first time in the GFSA program. Inevio was just what they were looking for.
