iFolder Features

Intelligent File Synchronization

Keeping your files sync'd up is easy with iFolder. You simply save files locally in your iFolder directory. Then, when you make changes to a file, those changes are automatically and intelligently updated to the iFolder server and your other computers through your Internet connection. This means that you're always working on the most recent version of any document.

iFolder files are synchronized in the background with no intervention from the user. As new files are added to the iFolder, the files are transferred to and from the server. Incremental files changes are detected intelligently, only the modified file portions are transferred to and from the server which saves network bandwidth and server disk access. You can synchronize the files at any time through a central server, with improved availability, reliability, and performance over other sharing methods.

Share With Your Team

Now, with iFolder optimized for group access, teams can collaborate better, knowing they are using the latest versions of important documents. Also, users can have multiple iFolders, allowing for better manageability of information and projects. Users can manage access rights and privileges from the iFolder client or from the server, eliminating the need for administrators to get involved.

Typically, when you work in multiple locations or in collaboration with others, you must conscientiously manage file versions. With iFolder Share, the most recent version of your files can follow you to any computer where you have the iFolder client installed. iFolder Share also allows you to share multiple iFolders and their separate content with other users. You decide who participates in each iFolder and the level of access for each member. Similarly, you can participate in shared iFolders that are owned by others in your collaboration environment.

Centralized Management

iFolder includes many new features in the area of administrative control. With iFolder administrators can provision users directly from LDAP, setup disk quotas, and limit the number of iFolders each user has.
