Fremont, CA, August 26, 2026 - Foxit, a leading provider of PDF and eSignature products and services that help knowledge workers increase productivity, today announced the launch of a dedicated cloud server in Australia. The new infrastructure expands Foxit's presence to better support local customers, especially organizations in industries with strict data privacy and compliance standards, by bringing its cloud-based PDF and eSignature tools closer to users across Australia and New Zealand. Customers can expect faster load times, more responsive applications, and the ability to keep data onshore within Australian legal jurisdiction.

Key benefits of the new Australia-based server:

• Faster access and smoother performance: With data staying closer to home, users will notice quicker load times and smoother performance across Foxit’s cloud-based tools.

• Onshore data residency: For industries that require it, like healthcare, finance, or government, your documents and sensitive info stay within Australia’s borders.

• Support for compliance: The new infrastructure supports local data privacy and residency rules/regulations - making it easier for organizations to meet regulatory requirements without jumping through hoops.

• Greater reliability: Having a server in-region means better uptime, faster recovery, and fewer disruptions if something goes wrong.

• Built to scale: Whether a small business or a larger enterprise the infrastructure is designed to scale with needs, without compromising performance or privacy.

Bringing our intelligent PDF and document management solutions even closer to Foxit's Australian customers is a significant milestone, reflective of our ongoing commitment to increasing trust and globalization. By hosting data locally, we are significantly improving performance and reliability and ensuring our customers meet stringent regulatory requirements.

said Andrew Travis, Chief Revenue Officer (CRO), Foxit.

This strategic expansion is part of Foxit's ongoing global initiative to optimize its cloud infrastructure, ensuring that users worldwide benefit from localized, high-performance, and secure digital document solutions. Australian customers can now leverage Foxit's full suite of PDF tools, from secure document collaboration to advanced editing and e-signature capabilities, with the added advantages of local cloud hosting.

In addition to this, Foxit has recently launched an Agentic AI update to their product to allow creation of a Jira ticket, sending emails via Gmail, or updating Salesforce records. By eliminating the need to switch between applications and manually enter data, Foxit streamlines document-centric workflows, leading to smarter, faster productivity.
