MICROSOFT WORLDWIDE PARTNER CONFERENCE — Cbeyond on Monday debuted TotalCloud File Storage (TCFS), what the company calls a secure and compliant cloud file storage, sharing and backup service for business media and data.

Cbeyond says TotalCloud File Storage provides a simple and secure collaboration platform for businesses of all sizes. In particular, TCFS is designed to give SMB employees and communities advantages previously available only to enterprises: real-time collaboration, file synchronization and backup at any time and from any device.

With TCFS, files are sent and received via password-protected email links, eliminating the need to send bulky email attachments that might get tagged as spam or clog networks and inboxes.

“TotalCloud File Storage is designed to address the needs of today’s dynamic businesses as it lets teams work more collaboratively, remotely and securely,” said Drew Kimball, director of product management, Cloud Services, Cbeyond. “With easy scalability, customization tools and common-sense pricing, it can be invaluable for SMBs of any size that need reliable, anytime, anywhere access to business data and files.”

TotalCloud File Storage is available as two options – Essentials or Enterprise – depending on the size and needs of the business. These options include features such as Secure File Sharing, Bulk File Upload, File Synchronization, Email Integration, and Multi-Platform Support (including PC, Mac, Android and iOS).
