Datto Drive for Windows Network Drives: Universal File Access Made Easy & Secure

The Windows network drive is a convenient location for file sharing within your network. Unfortunately, accessing these files from remote locations, such as the airport, home office or train, is nearly impossible without an internet connection and then, often possible only through a VPN connection. To address the growing need for such access, many users are turning to products like Dropbox to collaborate inside and outside the organization. This opens your organization to considerable risk and removes all IT visibility and control over sensitive corporate data. With Datto Drive, users can now leave Windows network drive files where they belong, on your network, and still enable remote file access for end users no matter where they happen to be working.

Capabilities

Datto Drive’s Windows network drive integration provides users a mechanism for connecting to their Windows network drives and documents. The administrator configures the app in the Datto Drive administration interface as well as the requisite credentials to enable validation. Once configured, Datto Drive treats the Windows network drives as an external storage location, enabling mobile, web and sync client access, sharing and synchronization. Administrators may choose to integrate one, or multiple network drives within a single Datto Drive instance.
