Wide Area File Services (WAFS)


Whether you share files across town or across the world, your users need to access current and consistent files from all locations. However, the risks of WAN collaboration are both numerous and costly. Slow file access means lower productivity. Redundant files can lead to accidental save-overs and lost work. Even with costly bandwidth and accelerator appliances, how can you plan for usage spikes, network outages, or even disaster recovery?

Overcoming the challenges of multi-site collaboration

GlobalSCAPE WAFS allows users from all locations to access and share files over a WAN using local mirrors of up-to-date files. Users at every location can access to up-to-date files at LAN speeds. Meanwhile real-time file locking prevents users from overwriting files in use. As files are modified, changes are mirrored instantly using revolutionary byte-level differencing technology. When connection is lost, work can continue at all sites without interuption.
  • File replication with minimal bandwidth consumption
  • File coherence with real-time file locking, file release, and synchronization
  • Continuous back-up at the central server
  • Filter files to mirror only what you need
  • Instant access to newly created files anywhere on the WAN
  • Offline availability with automatic sync upon re-connection
  • Secure encryption keeps your sensitive data safe
  • Completely transparent to end-users, no training required
  • Easy installation, browser-based management, and firewall friendly
    (tunnel through HTTP/S)
  • Easy upgrade from Windows DFS and NameSpace compatible
