The Challenge
Simultaneous editing and on-premise security, both required
Gaonchips planned a unified internal bulletin board application and evaluated commercial editors that could meet two specific requirements identified through internal research. The first was simultaneous editing, comparable to the co-authoring experience available in Microsoft Teams and OneNote. The second was the ability to deploy on the company's own servers rather than a cloud environment, a requirement tied directly to the security standards expected of the organization as a semiconductor company. |
Simultaneous editing was a required capability for team work logs and collaborative posts | |
Work documents needed to be stored on the company's own servers, not in external cloud storage | |
Both requirements had to be met by a single commercial editor |
The Solution
Synap Editor satisfied both requirements in one deployment
After evaluating available options, Gaonchips chose Synap Editor as the solution that met all the defined criteria. The simultaneous editing feature provided the collaborative experience employees were looking for, and the on-premise deployment option ensured that all work documents remained within the company's own infrastructure.

The document Import function allowed employees to bring existing files into the platform easily. The editor's API support also made it straightforward to connect with other internal systems, helping with data integration and migration. Synap Editor's support team responded quickly whenever issues arose during deployment.
"The intuitive UI/UX has significantly improved user convenience, and project development is progressing more efficiently. The API support makes it easy to connect the data we need, and the support team resolves issues quickly. We would actively recommend it to anyone considering an enterprise editor."
