Egnyte’s Server Syncs 5 Millions Files

Egnyte
Inc.
announced an industry first server sync of up to 5 million files and
25MB/s upload speeds in Europe and North America,
leapfrogging comparable services.

It is launching a series of
enterprise-related features aimed at ensuring IT maintains high
levels of control and security, while end users can get their work
done from anywhere and on any device.

"We’re
very excited to have implemented breakthrough technology that
combines the economics of the cloud with ‘in-the-office’ performance
to raise the bar on what companies should expect for their file
sharing infrastructure providers,"
said Vineet Jain, CEO and co-founder of Egnyte. "With
triple the speed of our nearest competitor in our supported markets,
and unprecedented support for syncing of up to 5 million files,
businesses can rely on us in a way never done before. We support
large numbers of files, individual files up to 10GB in size, large
numbers of users and devices across a multitude of access points to
offer the next generation infrastructure for file sharing needs."

Egnyte created a solution based on the notion that the cloud is not
enough, as evidenced by 8 out of every 10 customers using its hybrid
solution. Leveraging existing infrastructure, including
storage, the company bring cloud economies to the enterprise. To
better address enterprise needs they developed a series of IT and
end-user features that take file sharing infrastructure to a new
level.

IT can now:

• Access speeds of 25 MB/s in supported markets, 3 times faster than the nearest competitor

• Increase sync capabilities with
  support for five million files per device, 125 times more files than
  the nearest competitor.

• Deploy across an enterprise
  utilizing:
  Egnyte’s Mass Installer, Automatic Active directory Updater (native) and Remote Deployment Installer.

• Secure data with confidence by
  accessing:
  End-to-end single sign on support from mobile to cloud, two factor
  authentication, password authentication and rotation, activity
  alerting, hard and soft lockouts after failed login attempts, and
  real time auditing/reporting of permission changes, lockouts,
  password resets and mobile downloads.

• Deploy multi-tiered DR plans
  which include:
  N+4 backup and replication across multiple platforms including
  Amazon S3 and user owned storage devices.

Understanding that the target
users of a file sharing solution are twofold, the company has also
implemented a series of end-user focused updates that include:

• Overhaul update of the user
  interface to increase productivity and efficiency with updates that
  include: drag/drop usability, full HTML 5 support,

• The most methods for accessing
  files in the industry (desktop sync, NAS, SAN, VM, all
  major tablet and mobile platforms) and unlike the competition (capped
  at 2GB), No upload limit on files via FTP.

• Support
  for new Kindle Fire HD and iPhone 5.
