Security - No snooping and backdoors! The security and confidentiality of your data is the highest priority for TeamDrive. Before TeamDrive transfers your data, they are encrypted on your computer (AES-256). Only you decide who has access to your data. TeamDrive has been awarded the Data Protection Seal of Privacy of the ULD. TeamDrive is using End-2-End encryption. Synchronization. With TeamDrive 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. TeamDrive is available for all standard operating systems. Photo upload The TeamDrive app includes the direct upload from the Camera App into a TeamDrive Space/Folder. Offline synchronization Using a TeamDrive 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 TeamDrive 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 TeamDrive 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 TeamDrive Cloud Services, which means that we take care of everything, or you can use your own servers.
