What about file access

and sharing?

Want a “Dropbox-like” experience

Files need to stay on the file servers

Need access to files where they’re stored

Existing access controls must be honored

The Sales Guy Bob is on the road and needs to make

some urgent changes to a document

using his iPad

The Project Team Lead Tina needs to set up a new project

folder for her team to share all

related documents

The Marketer John needs to tweet a link to the latest

partner program guide
