File Express —
Work with Documents Offline

A cross-platform application that connects employees’ local folders to corporate and external storage
Features
1
Documents available even without a network connection

Employees can work with files while traveling, on-site visits, or in locations with poor internet connectivity.

The folders they need stay on their computer, independent of server connection stability.


2
Auto-sync — fewer duplicate files

No more sending files by email or messenger, storing them on a flash drive, or duplicating them across multiple services.

File Express automatically pushes changes to where they need to be and records the result.


3
Conflict resolution

When a document is edited on multiple devices, conflicts and “final-edits” file versions start piling up.

File Express creates a backup of the file, so you never lose your work.


What the application delivers for business

Use cases: when you need it

How File Express works under the hood

1
Configure your source connection

In the interface, add your corporate storage or server and verify the connection.

The source can reside either within your own infrastructure or in an external cloud as determined by your organization’s policy.


2
Map folders and select a mode

Specify which local folder to sync and choose its target server directory.

For each mapping, define the synchronization mode and rules.


3
Work with files as usual

An employee opens documents in a local folder even while offline.

When connectivity is restored, File Express syncs the changes to the server and pulls down any updates.


Compatibility

Supported Sources and Storage

1
R7 Products and Solutions

R7 Drive and cloud-based R7 Workspace are both supported.

This is the baseline setup for corporate infrastructure, where storage and access are governed by the organization’s internal policies.


2
Server Protocols

File Express works with WebDAV, FTP, FTPS, SFTP, and SMB protocols.

This enables connections to corporate file resources and partner infrastructure.


3
Cloud and S3 Storage

S3-compatible services are supported — AWS, MinIO, and others.

Corporate platforms NextCloud and OwnCloud.

Public cloud services — Yandex.Disk, Mail.ru Cloud, Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive.


User-Friendly Interface and Change Tracking

1
A GUI Built for Daily Use

The graphical interface lets you quickly add a server, configure mappings, and manage sync.

Status is visible immediately: what’s syncing, when the last successful operation ran, and where any errors occurred.


2
Command Line for Advanced Scenarios

The application includes a command-line interface for automation and advanced use cases.

Copy, sync, and bidirectional sync commands are all supported.


3
Monitoring and Logs

File Express maintains detailed operation logs and displays sync progress in real time.

This makes it easy to investigate incidents, verify that transfers completed correctly, and confirm completed operations.


4
Interface Localization

Multiple interface languages are supported, including Russian.

This simplifies deployment across distributed teams and reduces the learning curve for end users.


5
Background Operation and Quick Access

The application can launch automatically and run in the background.


The system tray icon lets you quickly check the synchronization status.

Sync

Sync You Can Rely On

1
Change Tracking and Selective Transfer

File Express detects local file changes and transfers only what has changed.

If a file is renamed or moved, File Express won’t re-upload it from scratch.


2
Any File Size or Directory Structure

Syncing is supported for files of any size, deeply nested directories, and filenames containing Unicode characters.

This means real-world corporate archives and legacy data structures can be handled without restrictions.


3
OAuth 2.0 Without Stored Passwords

R7 Drive and cloud services use OAuth 2.0 authorization. The application operates via access tokens and does not require storing storage passwords.


Deployment

Deployment and Pilot Options

1
Included in R7 Corporate Server

File Express is an application bundled with R7 Corporate Server that works in conjunction with R7 Drive.

The application uses the same authentication mechanisms and access policies already in place at your organization.


2
Pilot and demo on your own data

On request, we run a live demo using your data and in your infrastructure: we walk through offline access, bidirectional sync, storage migration, and conflict resolution — and configure a pilot scenario tailored to your needs.

After the pilot, you can roll out the solution across the entire organization with the same sync and access rules.
