Enhancing Communication & Security in Finance with GrpMail and WebFile

In a notable step towards digital transformation, Cocoperi's subsidiary, Key Point, has launched its email management system GrpMail and file sharing service WebFile at Shiba Credit Union. This implementation, which began on June 1, 2026, aims to significantly improve the way information is shared within the financial institution, ensuring efficiency and data security.

Both GrpMail and WebFile have already garnered recognition in the industry, with over 2,000 companies adopting their solutions over the past two decades. This extensive experience ensures that the services not only reduce email errors and risks of information leaks, but also centralize file management, thus facilitating digital transformation and improving operational efficiency tailored specifically for financial institutions.

Challenges in the Credit Union Sector

The introduction of these systems addresses the unique challenges faced by credit unions, particularly the physical separation of internal networks from the internet. Currently, employees must rely on a limited number of internet-connected PCs located in each office to conduct their email and file exchanges, leading to inefficiencies. With GrpMail and WebFile, employees can perform essential tasks directly from their desks within a secure internal network, creating a seamless workflow and allowing for greater focus on customer service.

Transition to Enhanced Services

In the words of Shiba Credit Union’s leadership, the limitation of having only one or two shared internet terminals in each department often obstructed work. The difficulties of moving between desks and competing for internet access were challenges that impeded productivity. With the integration of these systems, employees can manage emails and file transfers with ease, thus enhancing operational productivity and allowing more time and mental space to cater to customer needs.
