Sharing has never been easier
ownCloud offers an enterprise fileshare solution that allows users to access company files on any device, anytime, from anywhere. IT can also manage, control and audit file sharing activity to ensure security and compliance measures are met by using a single front-end to all of your disparate systems.
Frictionless Access to Existing Storage
Only ownCloud can provide access to storage within the enterprise, all through the frictionless mobile, desktop and web apps that users find simple to use. By connecting ownCloud to existing storage in the enterprise, such as S3, Windows network drives and SharePoint servers, ownCloud can operate as a single point of access to files across the enterprise.
Admins configure each storage connection manually or with a script, to make it easy to support a few up to thousands of storage servers, document libraries, FTP servers and more – whether onsite or in the cloud. This ensures admins get the full logging of the existing storage solution, while the user simply sees a file tree with access to all of their files, regardless of where they are stored on the backend, and with the existing ACLs preserved.
As a busy knowledge worker, you may be in the airport when you have an urgent request from one of your executives to send a critical file ASAP. Your flight is about to board and you don’t have time to fire up your laptop, access the internet, access the VPN, start email, attach the file, sync the client – all just to send the file. But, your mobile phone with the ownCloud app lets you go to the file and share it. Done.
No IT project ever starts with a blank slate. Existing technology stacks, storage systems, servers, private cloud management tools, log managers, backup tools, and more may be deployed in the data center. To preserve existing business processes, security and any solutions must deploy into this complex heterogeneous environment or face a rip-and-replace scenario.
