What is Acronis SCS Files Connect?

With Acronis SCS Files Connect, your organization’s Mac users can kiss SMB protocol bugs, slow file searches, file locking and naming issues, shortcut errors, file corruption, and permissions problems goodbye.

Acting as an Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) server, our technology serves as a gateway for Macs, enabling users to quickly and seamlessly connect to enterprise Windows SMB/servers and NAS devices to mount file shares, browse folders, and open files – all without losing access to the functionality, tools, and applications they know well. This solution integrates with numerous key infrastructure elements, including Active Directory, Distributed File System (DFS), home directories, and clustering.

With our technology, Mac users can also quickly and easily perform filename and full content Spotlight searches. And it doesn’t stop there. Now iOS and Android users can also enjoy intuitive on-the-go rich file browsing, full-content searching, previewing, editing, automatic file synchronization, and selective offline synchronization.
