Airdocs EFA comes with a variety of end-user and administrator features that make it easy
to empower remote employees with highly effective, efficient and secure file access and file sharing,
whatever their connectivity. Take a test drive and see for yourself.

Copy files to and from remote file shares at amazing speed thanks to a proprietary file transfer technology
called ARTR (or Adaptive Redundant Transfer Reduction). ARTR uses a variety of groundbreaking techniques
to dramatically reduce the average amount of data that needs to be transferred across the network
during copy operations and can often compress documents by as much as 1000:1 in file sharing scenarios,
delivering extraordinary acceleration.

|
Fast Folders
|
 |
Create Airdocs EFA Fast Folder shortcut files, which link to file shares with the benefit
of Airdocs acceleration and functionality. Fast Folder files can be created by right-clicking on
any file share folder, and can be stored on the Desktop, copied and shared by email.

Better Attachments with Quick Links
|
 |
Sending an email with a large attachment can take time over a remote working connection. But
sending an Airdocs Quick Link to a file on your share adds no extra time at all.
Simply right-click on the file and choose "Email Quick Link..." The recipient will be able to
download the file by opening the attached Quick Link at a time of their choosing, and Airdocs
transfers file data up to 1:1000 times faster than your email system.
|
|
|
Automatic Version Control
|
 |
Combine the freedom of file shares with the main benefit of version control: Airdocs automatically
provides protection against lost updates! When two busy users simultaneously edit a file and then
try to copy them to an identical location on a file share, Airdocs EFA warns the second user that
they would overwrite the revisions made by the first.
|
|
|
Offline Capability
|
 |
When you are offline, but still need access to a file, try switching Airdocs EFA into Offline Mode.
This will provide you with access to the files and folders that are inside the Airdocs cache. You
can also setup Airdocs to preload the cache with selected files and folders when you logoff your
LAN, ensuring their availability when offline and helping ARTR further increase performance when
you are online.

Administrator
Easy Setup
|
 |
Both the Airdocs EFA server and client software packages are remarkably easy to setup and configure. The Airdocs server
software can be run out of the box with the default configuration. The Airdocs client software only
needs to configured with the address of the Airdocs server. Packaged as an MSI file, the client
software can be rolled out across an organization using systems such as Microsoft's IntelliMirror.
|
|
|
Easy Administration
|
 |
Because Airdocs EFA provides your employees with access to your existing file shares,
through existing NT domain and Active Directory accounts, very little administration is
needed. Even Airdocs Quick Links, which accelerate and improve the sharing of files by email,
work with all major email software without any customization.
|
|
|
Easy Support
|
 |
If you create a new share for a workgroup, use Airdocs built in sharing features to tell your
users about it. Simply create a Fast Folder link to the new file share, and send it to them by
email. The users can then directly open the new file share from the email attachment, and save
the Fast Folder to their Desktop for use as a permanent shortcut.
|
|
|
User Restrictions
|
 |
You may decide, for whatever reason, that you wish to limit the number of remote employees that
have accelerated access to their file shares, Quick Link functionality and so on. In this case, it
is possible to configure the Airdocs EFA server to allow only a restricted set of users to connect.
