Sync'n'Share

The university's cloud storage enables, among other things, the simple synchronisation of files across different end devices and the easy sharing of work materials with colleagues or students. The use is similar to the well-known Dropbox, but all stored data is stored on the university's servers. Each user has 100 GB of storage space available (as of 08/2023).
