File Sync automates the process of distributing information throughout an organization. Owners of specific file and website content can generate standard materials and store them in appropriate locations on the network file system. Nokia Intellisync will see new and updated materials on the network, and package them for transmission to mobile and remote device users during their next server connection session.
File Sync supports laptop, tablet, and desktop PCs running Windows; Pocket PCs and Pocket PC Phone Edition smartphones; and Palm OS handhelds and smartphones. Any type of file or web content can be moved. Typical applications include sales literature, standard contracts, service manuals, human resources materials, company directories, and other typical company intranet content.
System administrators set up “publications” which are a sequence of file transport instructions, and then subscribe individual users and groups to these publications. When devices connect back to the server and authenticate, any new or updated materials will be transmitted, and any missing or damaged files on the remote device will be repaired. Connection to the server can be automatic or user-initiated.
Once placed on the device, files are available through the device file system, and also through convenient hyperlinks from the Nokia Intellisync client.
