How important are files?

Do you think that files are important to
our customers?
What % of time are their users working
with files?
Do you think collaboration tools will
eliminate the need for files?
What would it cost to migrate all your
mapped drives? What might you lose?

File-sharing Options
On-line social
File-sharing and
backup
Simple file sharing
à la 1990. Lots of
plumbing, many
“dead” files
Disruptive (“move all
your files here”) and
doesn't improve the
basic file experience
Cloud only, consumer
focused and not feasible
in most enterprises
