Enterprise File Sharing

What is “Enterprise File Sharing”?

Referencing the highly respected Forrester report, a recent post in StorageNewsletter differentiates Enterprise File Sharing providers by the following key criteria:

• Improved business agility
• Lower aggregate costs
• Fast and simple implementation
• Ease of collaboration
• Simplicity of maintenance
• Strong user support (especially mobile and remote)

When Surveyed, 74% of global senior technology executives plan to implement, upgrade, or expand file share solutions to reduce risks associated with sensitive data. Current file storage platforms are burdensome, expensive, and have significant hardware and mobile-device support requirements. Thus, many enterprises are moving towards cloud platforms for sync-and-share file sharing to increase productivity and reduce costs...but cloud platforms require migration and vendor lock-in of files, higher subscription, support and re-training costs and loss of control.

Enterprise file sharing has evolved over time from simple solutions such as VPN or Sync & Share systems to become a critical core network service that must meet stringent Zero Trust access standards.
