Online File Storage

• Permission-based folders
  Create unlimited folders, arrange them in a hierarchical folder structure (nested sub-folders) and assign appropriate levels of permission-based security (Read, Read/Write, Read/Write/Delete).
• Store files of any size
  Easily upload and store large files such as presentations, CAD drawings, medical images, digital assets, video libraries, etc.
• Web access
  Egnyte provides secure access to all your files via a Web browser.
• Desktop access: Drag, drop and edit
  Map online folders as a network drive for easy file access from your PC or Mac. Drag and drop files between folders in a familiar manner and open them for editing with a click. (*)
• Unlimited storage capability
  Egnyte service is available with 20 GB, 150 GB or 1 TB of online storage. Additional storage can be purchased and added to your account as needed. For information regarding unlimited storage plans, please contact us at: 1-877-734-6983
• Mobile access
  Use your mobile smartphoneís web browser (iPhone, Blackberry or Android) to access, share and manage your documents. No special applications or downloads required!

File Sharing and Transfer

• Shared folders
  Set up shared folders based on project or departmental needs and allow both employees and customers to safely and securely access their files from anywhere.
• File and folder access controls
  Three levels of built-in security prevent unauthorized access, including initial login, folder access and individual document protections.
• Automatic file versioning
  No need to change filenames to capture versions. Egnyte automatically versions files as they change. Egnyte never "overwrites" a file, so you get a complete audit trail of who made a change and when they made it.
  
• Automatic notification of file changes
  As new files are added or as existing files change, Egnyte automatically notifies each user that has access to those files. Each person can specify a notification frequency indicating how often they would like to be notified.
• File locking and checkout
  Users can lock files for modifications (file check-out). Once a file is locked (checked out), other users can view the file, but cannot edit or upload changes until the file has been unlocked (file check-in).
• Simultaneous sharing with multiple customers and employees
  Empower business collaboration with remote teams and customers by establishing different levels of folder-based permission – such as Read or Read/Write – to safely enable multiple parties to work together from one central online location.
• Share large files and folders via links
  Send large files by distributing a link instead of an attachment. You can control how long the link is active and can be automatically notified when a file has been downloaded. You can even publish your links to make them widely available.
• Unlimited public folders
  Public folders allow you to share files without requiring visitors to login. Just forward a link to a public folder or a specific file.
• Security controls for sharing
  Each folder can be configured for access by authorized employees and business partners. And you control what each user is allowed to do with Read/Write/Delete file permissions.
• Easily upload files of any size
  Easily drag and drop files on your desktop. A browser-based Java uploader will help you to move files online, and for the largest files (500 MBs or more), Egnyte provides easy-to-use, no-maintenance FTP.

Computer Backup

• Scheduled or continuous backup
  Back up your computer data on a scheduled or continuous basis. Backup is non-intrusive and occurs during periods of low activity. You can also perform "instantaneous" backups on-demand and data restoration is just a mouse click away.
• Instantaneous Web access
  Securely access backed up data via a browser from anywhere on the Web. You can also restore older versions of files, since document histories are automatically maintained in Egnyte.

• Backup: Outlook files
  Back up files of any type, including Outlook .PST files.
• Backup: Version management
  Egnyte creates new versions instead of overwriting existing backup files. File versions are stamped and maintained by time of change.

  Set the frequency and time of backup for all computers in your company. You select the folders and files you want backed up.
• Backup: Monitoring and reporting
  Obtain a quick summary of backup status across all employee computers. Set up proactive alerts about successful completion of backups and keep track of actual backup file statistics.

Offline Access: Local Cloud (**)

• Automatic synchronization of offline and online files
  The optional Egnyte Local Cloud provides full off-line access to files and folders. When Internet connectivity is restored, automatic synchronization reconciles changes between files on the Local Cloud and those on the Egnyte Cloud File Server.
• Fast access to large files
  Accessing and editing large files over the Local Cloud is much faster than performing the same actions over the Internet, and all changes are synchronized – with versioning intact – once Internet connectivity has been restored.
• Personal Local Cloud
  The Egnyte Personal Local Cloud can be deployed on your computer hard drive or direct attached storage drive.
• Local Cloud for office
  Egnyte Local Cloud for office can be deployed on any standard Network Attached Storage (NAS) device or generic Linux server.

  Unlike email-based communication which flows unprotected over the Internet, all communications with Egnyte including continuous data backup and browser- and desktop-based requests are secured using 128-bit AES encryption over SSL.
• Secure data hosting and data redundancy
  Egnyte servers are hosted at SAS 70 Type II compliant collocation facilities that feature 24/7 manned security, biometric access control, video surveillance and physical locks. We further secure your data with redundant independent RAID storage.
