Online file sharing is sweeping over businesses in the age of technology. File sharing allows internal data to be transferred and archived digitally, in a centralized location that employees can access from any computer connected to the Internet.

According to Panda Security, 54% of employees rely on email to send and receive documents and data. File sharing cuts out this extra step. Your coworkers can immediately access the document you just edited and uploaded.

Just like streamlining communication by cutting out the middleman, file sharing is effective because it allows employees to directly collaborate without having to rely on passed-down information. They can also work together without having to schedule a meeting. In fact, they don’t even have to be in the same office.
