DiLoc|Sync - Kommunikation für mobiles Personal Die lückenlose Information von Mitarbeiter/Innen, die viel unterwegs sind, gewinnt immer mehr an Bedeutung. Da nicht überall eine Internet-Anbindung vorausgesetzt werden kann, müssen diese Dokumente auch offline, also direkt auf den Geräten verfügbar sein. DiLoc®|Sync ist speziell für diesen Zweck entwickelt worden und zeichnet sich durch eine sehr leicht zu bedienende und anwenderfreundliche Benutzeroberfläche aus. Die APP ist mehrsprachig entwickelt, so dass jeder Benutzer seine Sprache auswählen kann und somit auch alle Dokumente in dieser Sprache zur Verfügung gestellt werden können. DiLoc®|Sync ist neben iOS auch für alle anderen gängigen Plattformen verfügbar. Zielgruppen: • Lokführer • Busfahrer • Piloten • Außendienstmitarbeiter • Vertriebsmitarbeiter • Servicetechniker • ... Hinweis: Um diese App nutzen zu können, ist ein DiLoc|Sync-Server nötig. Ohne diesen Server ist die App nicht nutzbar!

Security - No snooping and backdoors! The security and confidentiality of your data is the highest priority for Hornetdrive. Before Hornetdrive transfers your data, they are encrypted on your computer (AES-256). Only you decide who has access to your data. Hornetdrive has been awarded the Data Protection Seal of Privacy of the ULD. Hornetdrive is using End-2-End encryption. Synchronization With Hornetdrive you can keep your data synchronized between various computers and smartphones easily and automatically. It’s like child’s play to share music, images, documents or folders of any sort with friends, family or work colleagues. Hornetdrive is available for all standard operating systems. Photo upload The Hornetdrive app includes the direct upload from the Camera App into a Hornetdrive Space/Folder. Offline synchronization Using a Hornetdrive server makes it possible to synchronize data reliably even if one or more computers or smartphones are offline. As soon as the device regains internet access, the data are automatically synchronized. You can therefore work on your documents on a plane or train, for example, without an Internet connection. Management of access rights There are four different levels of access that you can allocate to individual group members: Read-Only, Read-Only (Anonymous), Read/Write, Superuser and Administrator. Version management With the Hornetdrive version management system (versioning), you have the option to go back to earlier versions of documents and to track all of the changes made by group members. Comments Every group member can add as many comments to each individual version of a file as he or she wishes. Alternatively, these comments can also be sent simply by e-mail to individual group members or to the whole group. Conflict management Hornetdrive reliably identifies any conflicts that may arise from simultaneous editing of files by different group members and offers a simple solution for resolving those conflicts. Free choice of server TeamDrive offers two alternatives for synchronizing and safeguarding your data reliably: either you can use the Hornetdrive Cloud Services, which means that we take care of everything, or you can use your own servers.
