Existing Solutions and Their Limitations

In the quest for File Server Modernization, businesses often encounter roadblocks with existing solutions that fail to fully bridge the gap between traditional on-premises capabilities and the flexibility of cloud environments. These solutions, while offering parts of the puzzle, frequently fall short in delivering a seamless, integrated experience that modern businesses require for enhanced remote access, collaboration, and control over their data.

Limited Integration

Solutions like SharePoint and Google Drive often struggle with deep integration into existing file server setups, leading to disruptions in workflow and application compatibility.

Control Compromises

Cloud-based services such as Dropbox and OneDrive offer convenience but at the cost of reduced control over data location and retention policies, a critical aspect for many businesses.

Complex Management

Traditional methods like VPN and FTP, or even Microsoft RDS, introduce complexity in user access management and fail to provide the simplicity and efficiency of modern cloud solutions.

Customization Constraints

Platforms like Trio Fox and SharePoint lack the flexibility for deep branding and customization, limiting businesses in creating a tailored file sharing environment for their unique needs.

Cloud Drive Mapping

Drive mapping is an important feature for online file access. End users can easily drag and drop files and folders from a set of mapped drives over the Internet without a VPN connection.

Global File Locking

File locking is a vital feature for online file access and team collaboration to avoid conflicts. End users need to control global concurrent online file access by using file locking to maintain consistency.

Permission Control

Dropbox and Google Drive don't have the same level of centralized control as a file server. You might miss the NTFS permissions and the ability to know where your data is, who has access to it and what they're doing with it.
