Sharing Files - Collaborate Quickly, Effectively, and Smoothly

What was once a mystery and a true nightmare for our parents is now done with just a mouse click: sharing files. The process has never been faster or more effective.

Thanks to the increasing use of clouds, it is possible to share files online, collaborate on a document with internal users through team sharing, or share with guests and track changes.

Whether you are in the same office, the same country, or on another part of the planet, uploading and sharing files works across borders and time zones.

All you need to upload a file online is an internet-enabled device, a file, access to a cloud, and the internet. Uploading and sharing data is no longer a difficulty, whether you're in the office, working from home, or on international assignments.

For example, the leitzcloud allows beginners or advanced users to upload files in just a few seconds. There are no limits on file size or bandwidth restrictions.

Furthermore, customers can choose between two options when uploading and sharing files with guests:

• Secure sharing with free guest user accounts
• Unsecured sharing via URL

Moreover, it is possible to create unlimited guest accounts for collaboration with external partners or employees.

Uploading and Sharing Data - Not Just for Tech Fans

The cloud solution from leitzcloud is user-friendly and has a simple and clear structure for administrators and users. This makes uploading and sharing data accessible to everyone.

Your colleagues can access the documents from anywhere thanks to easy file access and can, for example, edit them. This makes collaboration easier and faster.

If you, for example, are traveling by train and enter a tunnel, and the internet connection drops, you can work offline on the document. All documents are automatically uploaded and synchronized using a sync tool when you are back online.

To connect the old with the new and not overwhelm newcomers, the use of Word, Excel, and presentations is still possible. Uploading and sharing files at the end of the process, for collaborative work or an intermediate meeting, is possible at any time.

For new customers, an online demonstration is offered to make the transition easy. Among other things, uploading and sharing files are demonstrated.

Specifically designed video tutorials and instructions help with questions about uploading files online, as well as online documentation and FAQs.

True to the motto 'there are no stupid questions', customer service is available to assist you if there are any problems with file sharing. They will take care of your problem quickly through live chat, email or phone.

Previously, uploading and sharing files was cumbersome, whether by email, link, USB stick, or fax, and always took several minutes to complete.

Documents were duplicated, with an added label, and one had to keep track and coordinate to avoid working on files simultaneously.

Depending on the size of the file, the internet speed or the document could be lost. Thanks to the cloud, you are now and in the future on the safe side. Uploading and sharing files is easy and user-friendly, done in seconds.

Numerous extra features facilitate the internal workday, such as:

• File revisions, which allow you to use older versions of edits and restore deleted elements

• Corporate governance, to keep track of all activities and see what has been deleted, moved or edited by which user

When collaborating with external partners, unlimited accounts for guest users are possible. A secure sharing including a guest account is automatically created for the recipient when you share your documents.
