<p>Citrix Systems is making its cloud-based storage service ShareFile more Microsoft-friendly with SharePoint integration and the ability to store data on Azure.</p><p>Services for storing and sharing content in the cloud started in the consumer sector, but more enterprises are now adopting rather than blocking them. Citrix saw this trend coming and acquired ShareFile back in October 2011; it announced the latest round of updates Wednesday at the Synergy user conference.</p><p>Two of the updates are related to where and how ShareFile stores data. The service lets enterprises choose between storing user data in their own data centers; in data centers managed by Citrix; or using existing file storage systems, according to Bill Carovano, senior director of product management for Citrix's ShareFile products.</p><p>Using existing systems is made possible via what Citrix calls StorageZone Connectors. The company has supported traditional network shares, but is now adding integration with SharePoint, according to Carovano. With the ShareFile app users can, for example, find a file on their iPad in the SharePoint document library, open it up, make changes and then check it back in again.</p><p><a href="http://www.pcworld.com/article/2039539/citrix-links-cloudbased-storage-to-sharepoint-and-azure.html">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://www.4-traders.com/CITRIX-SYSTEMS-INC-4863/news/Citrix-Systems-Inc-Citrix-ShareFile-Mobilizes-and-Secures-Enterprise-Data-Everywhere-16902631/">CITRIX SYSTEMS, INC. : Citrix ShareFile Mobilizes and Secures Enterprise Data ...</a> (4-traders (press release))</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=dUo7BzWeKRP-wtMqGXxSxXQMCN8XM&ned=us">2 additional articles.</a></p>
