Access for Onsite and Offsite consultants and staff. Our products; FileWay, PSTWay and OWA Essentials are utilized by corporate enterprise, nonprofit, and government organizations.
Cost-effectively empower your entire workforce to gain access to internal Windows UNC file share and OWA network resources.
Organizations need to enable their employees to access corporate email and files from home, but cannot justify the hardware and support cost of providing a home PC for this use; at the same time, most security policies rightfully prohibit the deployment of VPN clients on non-corporate, privately purchased assets. In this scenario, FileWay™ complements the existing OWA or employee portal to give employees working at home intuitive access to the same files they could reach from their office workstation, organized the same way and presented in a familiar interface. Because no dedicated client software is used, support costs are minimized, and authorized users can access their files from any Internet-enabled computer at any time.
On-site Consultant
Consultants and other field employees working at customer sites will often be unable to access their company’s VPN from within the customer’s firewall. FileWay™ gives the consultants secure remote access to resources on the home office LAN via any Internet connection for uninterrupted productivity.

5 Requirements for Corporate Remote File Access
To effectively address the need for remote access to corporate resources without introducing new administrative, support, or financial burdens, a solution must meet five key criteria: it must be secure, easy to use, easy to deploy, easy to administer and fully integrated with the existing corporate infrastructure.
-
Security: The remote access solution should ensure complete end-to-end security from the remote browser to the desktop computer without introducing new vulnerabilities or gaps in the existing security infrastructure. It should also enforce existing access privileges, and allow the implementation of stricter policies for remote network access as needed.
-
Ease of use: Users should enjoy seamless, convenient, and intuitive access to the full range of resources they could access from their desktop system, with complete read-write capabilities, and without restrictions on file sizes or dates. The solution should be entirely Web-based for reliable access from any browser-enabled PC or device with no software to download or configure.
-
Ease of deployment: The ideal solution will not require the time-consuming and resource-intensive installation and support of client software, either on the local desktop or on the remote systems to be used, and should be intuitive enough to use with minimal user training. The solution should also scale easily and cost-efficiently as the company’s needs expand.
-
Ease of administration and support: The appeal of the remote access solution to a large proportion of the workforce will invite broad adoption; to minimize the impact on organizational resources, it should be easy to administer and require little or no support, eliminating the need for dedicated help desks and a large administrative staff.
-
Full integration: To avoid introducing new complexity and duplication of effort, the remote file access software will fit seamlessly into the existing corporate infrastructure, and ensure full value from existing investments in Web-enablement, security, and other systems and policies.
