Fonville Morisey Realty, a leader in new and resale residential real estate, has 11 sales offices with nearly 1,000 sales associates across the country. Over the last year, field agents have become increasingly dependent on their mobile devices and laptops to stay productive while they are constantly traveling back and forth between client meetings. They needed a solution to help their agents stay connected to their work files easily outside the office.

Oxygen Cloud Drives support secure file sharing and BYOD,
without VPN or network shares

Fonville Morisey’s agent teams set up a range of Oxygen shared spaces so everyone can share files with each other regardless of which office or physical location they are at. Oxygen’s cloud drives deliver a seamless, native user experience keeping everyone in sync with all their shared files on all their devices, whether corporate-issued or BYOD. From the desktop, users can access files from their file system, then edit and work on files without any change in their normal workflow. When they’re away? Users can still easily browse and open files from Oxygen mobile from anywhere. No need for network shares and a VPN to access the share externally.


“Our agents can select any mobile device they feel will help them be productive and in many cases they have multiple devices, so it was extremely important that the solution supported the majority of the popular mobile devices and PCs on the market. Our agent teams needed a dedicated space where they can share files among themselves and be able to send confidential documents to clients and know they were encrypted and password protected. Finally, having the option to choose storage providers that offered data redundancy or our own data center gives us flexibility if our needs change.”

John Schweighardt, CIO of Fonville Morisey Realty

Meeting IT’s need for security and data control

Oxygen was the perfect fit from both a security and usability perspective for Fonville Morisey Realty. IT gets complete centralized control over corporate data while enabling agents and employees with file access from any device, anywhere. Oxygen’s cloud drive technology secures data at a granular level, providing an encrypted container from end to end to protect against unauthorized user or device access to sensitive data.

Oxygen’s centralized control and Active Directory integration allows Fonville Morisey Realty to easily manage access, create shared spaces for team file sharing, and leverage existing AD groups for remote office access. Fonville Morisey Realty quickly deployed 1,000 Oxygen accounts to cover its employees, real estate agents, mortgage and title company representatives.

“Oxygen was the perfect fit and implementing the AD connector on our Microsoft HyperV Virtual environment required minimal time and effort. This has been one of the easier company-wide rollouts we have done.”
