Concayo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Concayo is Latin America´s first digital publications distributor for popular magazines and books in digital format.

Concayo provides print publishers with a way to distribute their printed publication digitally, to read online or offline via a viewer software called Concayo Viewer. This reader program is required to access the magazines, which utilize a combination of .NET technology and Adobe PDF. It has been suggested that there are protections embedded in the files and the viewer. When accessing a magazine, viewed pages load much faster than initial view.

Concayo provides a feasible offline solution for Microsoft Windows XP only. Also worth note is the ease of use moving past the stage of proof of concept and has succeeded in providing a viable commercial solution.

Some Concayo magazines are free, needing only a basic registration in their website.

Concayo has confirmed they are developing a new software viewer that displays embedded binary multimedia files but have not provided a release date.
