Access FileShare, SharePoint, and Box

A file share is public or private computer data and/or space in a network with various levels of access permissions. File sharing allows a number of people to use the same file by being able to read or view it, write to or modify it, copy it, or print it. Users can have the same or may have different permissions. A file share may also include an allocated amount of personal file storage.
Access to enterprise SharePoint and Box sites give you even more channels for near-instant mobile collaboration with your enterprise team members. Heavily used by organizations large and small for on-demand file sharing and updating, SharePoint and Box are applications that integrate intranet, content management, and document management onto a holistic platform. In addition to these applications, your administrator can make other document repositories available to you.
It is still important to remember, however, that applications like SharePoint and Box aren't something you buy and install on your own desktop but rather backend systems that tie all your users' PCs and mobile devices together, allowing them all to communicate and synchronize data. The basic goal is to make it possible for an organization with a hundred or even a thousand employees spread all over the region or the world to work together with the same level of agility and coordination as a company with ten people working out of a single office.
You access and manage your document data sources in the same way as your work file shares. However, with SharePoint for example, if you have been granted the corresponding permissions, you can check-in and check-out files. BlackBerry recommends that you do not download more than 50 files at one time, or the downloads might not function as expected. For guidance on the fundamentals of multi-author sharing, consult your Microsoft Office SharePoint training resources or other enterprise documentation.
