GroupDrive is a business-class file and document collaboration product. Businesses can use GroupDrive to securely collaborate over the Internet without the inherent problems of emailing attachments. Because your files are stored in a central location, users always have the most current version of a document. The GroupDrive Server provides secure file storage and backup for your important business files and documents.
With easy file sharing and real-time document collaboration, GroupDrive gives your team a secure private business network that lets you work at the speed of business.
The GroupDrive Collaboration Suite consists of 3 components:
- GroupDrive Server - a secure WebDAV server for storing and collaborating on files. GroupDrive uses WebDAV over SSL.
- GroupDrive Client - Virtual drive connection to the GroupDrive server enables users access and save files from within any Windows application.
- GroupDrive Web Interface - A simple and intuitive interface that allows users to store and collaborate on documents from any machine with a web browser and Internet access.
Access Your Files From Anywhere
GroupDrive provides simple access to your files, from anywhere, at any time. The GroupDrive Server sits
between the Internet and your data and provides a central, secure method to access your files from outside the
corporate network. Remote workers can access and share corporate information without expensive VPNs or
remote access software. Students benefit by having access to class files and assignments, even while off
campus. GroupDrive integrates with existing user authentication servers allowing a single secure sign-on
implementation. Users can access their data using any Web browser, or for added functionality, by using our
exclusive GroupDrive Virtual Drive technology for Windows. Macintosh, UNIX, and Linux clients have the
benefit of accessing their GroupDrive directly from their desktop.
Share Documents Easily
Users can easily create shared workspaces. The creator of the workspace can define the actions that other users can take on the documents and folders in the workspace.
Documents can also be shared with customers and partners outside of your organization by sending QuickLinks rather than bulky email attachments.
Keep Important Files Secure
GroupDrive supports encrypted sessions using industry proven SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), to secure your critical business documents. GroupDrive also has support for third-party client certificates, ensuring that your users are being authenticated prior to access being granted to the GroupDrive server.
Automate Backup and Synchronization Tasks
GroupDrive offers an easy-to-use tool for automating backups and synchronizing folders between the PC and the GroupDrive servers. Backups can be scheduled to execute daily, weekly or monthly and can run as full or incremental backups. Users can also do a “hot backup” by simply saving important files to their backup folder as soon as they have been updated.
Reduce Training and Support Costs
Because GroupDrive is so easy to use, the cost of training is greatly reduced. Your users can access, edit and share documents through a mapped drive letter – the same way that they access files on their own PCs. Users also have the option of using an intuitive browser interface, allowing them secure access to documents from any computer.
GroupDrive offers the most mature drive mapping technology on the market, a robust and secure WebDAV server and the convenience and simplicity of a well-designed web interface.
