FolderMaestro File Collaboration is an enterprise level real-time multi-directional distributed file locking and synchronization technology that ensures the same data exists on all participating host servers regardless of where changes occur, and prevents users on disparate networks from accessing a file that is in use by a user on another network.  A file collaboration session consists of two or more participating hosts, and a folder hierarchy called the Watch Set, located on each host which will be kept synchronized by propagating file locks and modifications to all participating hosts in real-time.
