Egnyte Expands Virtualization Services with Microsoft Hyper-V

We continually strive to offer our customers a choice for when, where and how they manage business files. With many of our customers’ IT solutions being deployed through Windows environments, we’re thrilled to announce that we have extended our platform’s virtualization offerings to include support for Microsoft Hyper-V.

What does this mean for our customers?Storage Sync integrated with Hyper-V Server enables customers to access, edit and share business files from any storage device deployed in a Windows environment. The powerful combination of Hyper-V with Egnyte Storage Sync is ideal for Windows administrators who want to cloud-enable existing Windows servers or other storage devices, and provide enterprise-class access and sharing to that data.The integration with Hyper-V provides a cost-effective option to quickly harness the full range of file services, including file sync and share, cross-office collaboration, business continuity for the use of existing infrastructure, and data migration to the cloud. The addition of Hyper-V simplifies the deployment and maintenance for IT teams to effectively leverage their storage devices to manage, access and collaborate on files. It also offers seamless multi-site collaboration from any device, regardless of where the files are physically stored.

The Egnyte platform is now compatible with Hyper-V, VMWare and all of our native storage integrations, enabling us to support nearly all storage and virtual environments for businesses. This is great news for our customers to be able to choose deployment methods that best meets their unique needs.
