Real solutions for real estate agents

Posted on by

Onehub is based in Seattle, which, anyone here will tell you, is one of the hottest real estate markets in the country. The median home price in Seattle hit $700,000 this year, double what it was five years ago. A recent CNN Money article called buying a house in the Emerald City “particularly brutal.”

While this is certainly a very real problem for potential home buyers in our region, it certainly keeps area real estate agents busy. But, as a recent Bloomberg article points out, cloud computing is taking some of the busywork out of an agent’s job. They can spend less time on logistics and more time on selling. Read More…

Some basic tips for securing data in the cloud

Posted on by

This story originally appeared as a post over on the blog of Onehub’s sister product, Marshal. But it had some good, general tips for securing your data in the cloud, so we thought we’d re-post it here. 

As a refresher, Marshal is a new online tool that can scan your cloud accounts (such as Box, Dropbox, Onehub and more) to uncover any exposed sensitive data you may be storing. You can try it by running a free scan right now.  

Marshal is just a piece when puzzling out your security strategy

I take a ferry into work and often people will leave jigsaw puzzles out for passengers to complete. It’s quaint and a relaxing way to pass the time.

Data security, on the other hand is a puzzle that is neither quaint nor relaxing. It requires constant vigilance, which is why we built Marshal. But Marshal is just a piece of your overall security strategy. Read More…

My wife and I have two very different approaches to organizing the files on our computer. She likes to create a very specific hierarchy of folders and sub folders, each properly categorized and labeled.

I prefer just dumping everything on the desktop and figuring it out later.

Whether you are more like my better half with your Onehub Workspaces or like me (come to the dark side!), we make finding what you’re looking for a snap with our full-text search. Read More…

Tap into the insights of our Activity Report

Posted on by

User_Activity_FilterTechnology lets us keep track of every minute detail of our lives. How many steps we take, the hours we sleep, how many calories we consume. By tracking things, we can get a bigger picture of our overall wellbeing.

It’s the same idea with Onehub’s Activity Report feature. By providing you a log of every event that happens in your account: What files are uploaded, by whom, who has accessed them and when, what was done with the files, etc., you get a better sense of your overall file sharing.

Our Activity Report also helps you understand how people are using your data — and in some cases, can help you make better business decisions in ways that might not immediately come to mind. Read More…
