How TeamDrive works

Whenever I get to know any new product, it's always interesting for me to find out what's behind it ??? I mean to look 'behind the scenes' and understand how it works.
You may call it female curiosity, impatience of the mind or just inquisitiveness :) , but whatever it is, it's always there and it depraves me of sleep till I'll find answer to the questions I have. The same story was of course with TeamDrive :P
At the very beginning, when I just got to know this software, I didn't have a lot of questions :( ( I was mainly using it and enjoying the benefits it gave me), but the more I used it and loved it, the more I wanted to descry the actual mechanism of data transfer.
Here is what I found out and would love to share with other people:

How TeamDrive works or glance behind scenes of collaboration software:

TeamDrive is a program that enables peer to peer commuinication and helps effortlessly manage multi-member projects, since it offers security and efficiency in electronic collaboration.
The main idea behind this software is transmission as well as storage of data on the webhost in encrypted form, what makes your data inaccessible for other internet users and supports workflow systems that require continuous network connection. TeamDrive is easy to install and use, while it can be downloaded at a mouse click and perfectly blends in with existing applications, so that you do not have to change your working patterns or get extra training to learn how to handle the program. Besides, you (as a user) may decide for yourself whom to invite into your shared space staying in a full control of the communication process and being sure that only entrusted members of community have access to your data.


Below is a model that explains features of the software in more detail:





To start using the software, you may download it from the company website, where it's available in 2 versions: Basic, which is free of charge and Premium one, which you can get for a small fee and that provides you additional features and mostly suitable for corporate clients, whereas private users may be quite content with basic one.


Upon software installation you are given shared space where you can invite people with whom you want to exchange information. Program has synchronization mechanism that allows you to integrate changes with other peers in your space. Synchronization is done through hosted depot using transmission mechanism. Moreover, all peers are registered by a server that allows them to communicate despite IP addresses.









TeamDrive is compitable with all latest Windows versions starting with 2000 as well as Vista what allows you to use the software without a need to change your working habits !!!

Thanks looks like a great product. We'll certainly give a try. Might be an interesting alternative to our current dyndns/FTP-solution.

Best wishes,

Yea, it seems to be really great, primarily the encryption system is brilliant! It seems to be a really good product for the companies with confidential data transfer. I’ll recommend it for my friend’s company.

My best wishes
