Synology Drive Server
Synology Drive Server is an all-round solution for file management, sharing and synchronization. Once the administrator has enabled Synology Drive Server, users can see Synology Drive as a file portal and access it from web browsers, desktop applications and mobile apps. Also, the administrator can configure sync tasks to other Synology NAS servers via Synology Drive ShareSync.
