Novell Filr makes file sharing modern, mobile and social.
Think about work without files. You can't. Files like presentations, spreadsheets, blueprints, databases, and videos are essential to any organization. Your users want to conveniently access and share them, but you also need to apply IT controls that will govern these important organizational assets.
Novell Filr is the next-generation of file access and sharing. It hides those pesky mapped drives from users, who can now work with their files on any device. It also gives IT the control you need to govern and safeguard the intellectual property held in these files.
Customers who have current maintenance for Novell Open Enterprise Server will be entitled to Novell Filr when it ships in 2012. Others will be able to purchase Filr stand-alone later in the year and leverage it across Windows File Servers and NAS devices.
