10 Feb 2023

TeamDrive 5.0.0 (Win/Mac/Linux & Android/iOS)

TeamDrive 5.0.0 is a major release with new features, many improvements and multiple minor bug fixes.

Attention: using new features may require all Space members to update to the 5.0 release. We will prompt you in case you try to use a new feature that will result in such.

New:

  • New Groups feature, allows users to invite pre-defined Groups into a Space. Groups can be created and managed by the account manager in the TeamDrive administration console, without knowing in which Space the groups are used. With such a split management, we maintain the “zero knowledge” principle of TeamDrive.

This tutorial video explains this new feature.

  • Support of anonymous groups added (protected against changes to disclose a member list)
  • Auto-remove deleted users from Spaces. TeamDrive clients will now automatically remove Space members, if their user account is deleted in the TeamDrive system. Our “zero knowledge” principle will maintain with this automatic removal of deleted users from Spaces.
  • WebApps (WebClient) will now auto-accept the first Space invitation to make onboarding of new users more intuitive and simpler, when they are invited and using a guest license (restricted to one Space).

Improvements:

  • Automatic address book updates will now only list current space members
  • Added a field on the Space’s information page to display how much storage is used on the server for the individual Space.

Bug fixes:

  • More than 1000 keys can now be loaded from the Key Repository flawlessly
