This section focuses on the services offered by Zentyal as an office
server. In particular, its ability to manage network users in a centralized way,
Files and Printers sharing, automatized sign-on on different services, integration with
Windows AD either as an additional controller or as the operations master,
web applications and backups for the user data.

Directory services allows you to manage the user-related information across your organization,
centralizing and abstracting the authorization and permission handling for all the other services.
Integration with Samba4 and Kerberos technologies turn Zentyal into a native drop-in replacement for Windows
Server in the SMB, managing the Domain information, Organizational Units, GPOs and Sysvol information both
in mixed environments (Zentyal and Windows servers) or just ''Standalone'' mode with Windows clients.

File sharing and access control policies for users and groups is one of
the most important features of an office server and it greatly eases access to workgroup
documents in an intuitive way. Security policy allows the protection of critical files
within an organization.

Moreover, many businesses use ''Web'' applications installed on an HTTP server
spanning different domain names and allowing HTTPS connections.

Sharing printers, using user and group permissions is also a
very important service in any organization, since this allows you to
optimize the resources usage and availability.

Finally, the backups tools for both Zentyal configuration and user's date is
without any doubt a critical and indispensable tool in any enterprise server
to ensure the recovery process after a failure or mishap of your systems,
protecting you from data loss and downtime.
