When it comes to managing files we come a long way. Initially we had file servers in business, then once we moved our emails, accounting systems and other business systems to the cloud we were left with our files, usually connected to a network storage device.
With the advancement of technology it’s only been in the last couple of years that we as an IT company have felt comfortable moving to a cloud based file system.
So the question is, why not Onedrive or Google drive?
The answer is pretty straight forward, Onedrive and Google drive don’t have the advanced technology and security integration that Dropbox does, Dropbox has LAN Sync and Smart Sync, bundled with Team Folders and Remote Wipe functions makes this system ideal for business owners wanting to protect their intellectual property while at the same time having the flexibility to hold every single file in the business online and on their devices without the restrictions that the others have.
Think of having all of your files, terabytes of files, accessible on any device, with advanced viewing capabilities built into the software, ideal for the building industry who need to view CAD files without necessarily having the software. Having the ability to wipe the files from any employees device, protecting your Intellectual Property. Having the security of Single Sign On, preventing any ability for outside access into the system, even to the point where staff can only access files from within your office, making the cloud work for you.
In Australia we still don’t have the best internet connections, having LAN Sync and Smart Sync reduce internet usage, giving any business the best of both worlds even without having the greatest internet connection.
