Remote folder synchronization connects desktop machines to file servers and from file servers to the private cloud. It is for better offline file access and better business continuity.
Many employees work from home and are likely to stay working from home for an extended period. There are photo libraries and frequently used templates that may not change often but are used daily.

A marketing team needs to get 20GB of data available to 20 remote desktops, and the boss is OK with using a cloud solution. There is a folder of sales resources managed by the marketing team. The file management includes add or remove content. Sales guys can end up offline, so they need offline access. The pain point is that they need to distribute to the sales as a read-only copy that they can't modify or add documents.
