VPN file access and sharing can be a pain. Sure, you get secure remote access to your company file server through a private encrypted tunnel on the Internet, but configuring a VPN and training users can be painful and resource intensive. Just establishing a VPN connection requires signing in with a special application every time, and usually generates a steady stream of support tickets from users. Common complaints include trouble connecting, slow connections, reconnection issues, and interference with other network resources.
But easier cloud file sharing alternatives, like Dropbox or OneDrive, often raise privacy and security concerns even though they can get rid of a lot of the usability headaches. What you need is a solution that combines the best of both worlds - the trouble free productivity of cloud file sharing with the data privacy and security of on-premise file server.
