Intro To OneDrive Next Gen Sync: What is it, how it works, and can I manage it?

OneDrive and the free storage it provides has changed the way many people work on documents and share information with others. The ability to synchronize that information to local storage so you can continue to work offline is an important component of that change for many people. But the history of synchronization clients for SharePoint has been a confusing landscape at best and a disfunctional mess at worst. The roadmap starting with SharePoint workspace through the original OneDrive Sync client and now culmanating with the OneDrive Next Gen Sync client has been littered with failure and confusion. The release this year of the next round of enhancements for the OneDrive next gen sync client may finally be turning the corner on all that pain and suffering. But there is still a lot of confusion about which client is which and what each client supports and what it doesn't. In this talk we'll cut through all that confusion and show you how to figure out which client you are currently using, which client you should be using and how to get it installed/upgraded. We'll also discuss how to implement and manage the sync process for an entire enterprise. And we'll look at the roadmap of enhancements that are still to come. Find out how your organization can effectively change the way you are working on and sharing information.
