PRODUCT OVERVIEW
When you place a virtual CD on a network, any number of users can access it simultaneously while the original disc remains stored for safekeeping. Licensing agreements are handled from a central console: you “check out” a virtual CD and electronically “return” it. Files can be located quickly through electronic searches of the digital library or by browsing a list of titles in the software interface.
Designed for educational institutions, government agencies, and businesses, VirtualDrive Network operates on Windows®-based TCP/IP networks and is easy to implement and manage. Wizards guide you through most tasks, and in most cases you can install and configure the software on an entire network in just a few hours.
