Why Use Sync Gateway Mode?
Sync gateway mode offers the following advantages:
• Content can be synced between different branch cloud storage gateways and with the CTERA Portal. This means that the data is “always on” and available for users to access at the branch at LAN speed, as well as when they are roaming outside the office.
• Users can sync files across their own devices. Syncing files allows users with multiple personal devices, such as a desktop computer, laptop, and smartphone, to take their files with them effortlessly wherever they go, with the confidence that the files they are working on are always current. Users do not even need to remember which device they were working on when they last modified a file. For example, you can create a file on your laptop and later open and modify it from your desktop.
• Users can collaborate easily with others. Sync gateway mode lets users sync any number of shared folders. That means you can sync a folder with folders on other peoples' devices. Everyone who syncs the shared folder can view, update, and delete the files in the shared folder.
