QUESTION

How can WAFS/CDP benefit my organization?

ANSWER

WAFS and CDP have been successfully deployed in numerous organizations, achieving the following benefits:

• Small, easy-to-configure software solution (no additional hardware required)
• Optimizes the network by actually decreasing the overall network traffic
• Changes are instantly mirrored in real time between servers, and files are truly local
• Users access the most up-to-date files at LAN speeds
• Maximize productivity by transporting files, not people, and save on travel expenses
• File versioning allows you to restore an accidentally deleted file in minutes
• Maintains file coherence with real-time file locking support so users can be assured they are always working on the most current version and rework is virtually eliminated
• Drive lettering is kept consistent at each local site. Applications that require full-paths, such as AutoCAD Xrefs, can interact with files mirrored by GlobalSCAPE WAFS without error.
