Work Folders in Windows Server 2012 R2

The Work Folders functionality in Server 2012 R2 represents a significant enhancement over current technologies for data synchronization and accessibility.

Work Folders can be very useful for mobile users, especially in a BYOD environment.

Recently, I wrote a deep dive article about this cool technology, and it is published on Windows IT Pro site. Check it out here!
