- **File history and recovery:** Previous and deleted versions of a file can be previewed and restored for 90, 180 or 365 days, depending on the plan.
- **Advanced share controls:** Shared links can be read-only or preview-only and can carry passwords, expiry dates and download limits, with notifications when a file is viewed.
- **CloudFiles and Vault:** CloudFiles provides files-on-demand inside Windows File Explorer and Mac Finder, and Vault archives files in the cloud only to free up local space.
- **File requests and team folders:** Request files from several people without showing them what others sent, and collaborate with internal and external users in shared team folders.
- **Team administration:** Team plans add a multi-user admin console and centralized billing. Teams 2TB and Teams 10TB add role-based access control and admin delegation.
