![]() ![]() We tried the vfs_fruits, it was still WAY slower than just setting up a separate NAS with AFP. The cloud is the authority.ģ.) We have some users (including myself), who prefer to use the mapped drive directly to the cloud.ġ.) It's critical to our executive team that our users be able to access there files offline when they are traveling (no internet connection if on a plane or something).Ģ.) Globally accessible in a secure way (we have offices in 3 different countries).ĥ.) Able to have permissions for a private folder and shared folder and granular access based on user/group.Ħ.) Able to share files with outside users.ħ.) Something that we can control the bandwidth of so when a user upload a 18 gig file on accident it doesn't crush the network. We have a NAS in every office that syncs to the cloud. They can't use the cloud drive because they are dealing with files that are 50MB+ (art files) in size.ġ.) Our laptop users (85% of our users use laptops) use local sync (sync the folders we choose locally to their laptop).Ģ.) Desktop users use a mapped drive to a local NAS. Another major issue is, we have to have a separate NAS locally for our MAC users because the SMB protocol is too slow on mac and they have to use AFP. The issues range from not being able to save files from Egnyte to a local users computer when using our ERP system in a terminal services environment to users being out of sync. We have about 150 users on Egnyte, and it's starting to show signs of scaling issues. It worked well when we were small, but we are starting to feel the growing pains. 7 physical offices, spread out across the world (New York, Arizona, India, Ukraine, London)Ĭurrently, we use Egnyte as our file server/system. The business is heavily technology driven because the CEO believe very much in automation/efficiency by way of technology (and I agree with him). We have every type of user: executives, managers, interns, warehouse, contractors, sales people, remote workers. 200 employees use a laptop, desktop, mobile phone or some sort of technology. This is the first area I thought I would bring up. ![]() I am going to try to contribute more often in areas that I am strong, and also look to receive advice in areas I am weak. This is my first official STARTED thread on spice works. ![]()
