Using FolderMaestro Laptop in a One Server Environment
Used by businesses that may have only one office, but still need to coordinate among team members as they access files remotely, usually on their laptops.
Users on Laptops and Desktops access files from the server and want to work on a local version of the
file (stored on their machine) and want to make sure no other user is modifying
the file while they are making changes.
By checking-out the file from the server, the file is downloaded for local access
and locked down on the server from edits until the file is checked back in.
Once the user has finished modifying the file, the user checks the file back in
and the updated copy of the file is synchronized to the server.
Other users are now able to access and modify the latest version of the file. |
Using FolderMaestro Laptop in a Multi-Server Environment
FolderMaestro Laptop can be used in conjunction with FolderMaestro Server edition.
In a multi-server environment , FolderMaestro File Check-Out ensures that end-users,
connected remotely (usually on laptops), can “check-out” shared files from the file server for remote editing.
When a file is “checked-out”, FolderMaestro Server locks down the corresponding file across all servers until the laptop user “checks-in” their file edits and those edits are synchronized across all systems in the collaboration group.
