1.1 Benefits of iFolder

iFolder provides the following benefits:

  • iFolder integrates with your native desktop environment, making it easy to create and manage multiple iFolders.

  • iFolder is highly scalable and flexible, with no practical limit on the number of iFolders per user or on the number of members per iFolder.

  • With encryption enabled, iFolder protects data as it travels across the wire and is stored on the iFolder server.

  • With the enhanced Web Access console, you can access your files on the iFolder server from any workstation without the iFolder client, and use a Web browser to perform all the operations of iFolder client.

  • You can easily and selectively share personal and business files.

  • iFolder can migrate and upgrade your iFolder data to the latest version.

  • iFolder supports LDAPGroups.

  • You can control the access level of member users of the iFolders you own, or where you have the necessary rights to control the access rights of members.

  • iFolder transparently updates your files to member iFolders on multiple workstations.

  • When iFolder is running, it tracks and logs changes made while you work offline, and synchronizes those changes when you connect to the server.

  • iFolder provides secure authentication of members who access an iFolder to synchronize its data.

  • iFolders offers an alternative to exchanging files via e-mail, which avoids the file-size limits on e-mail attachments and reduces your e-mail storage requirements.
