Set Up In Minutes: Dive Right Into Meaningful Work
Scan a QR code, plug in the power and Ethernet cables, and press a button to confirm—that's all you need to do after unboxing. After that, you're all set to start transferring files or photos to your private cloud storage, and focus on what truly matters.
Store Everything Here, Access Anywhere
With 8 TB of storage space, you can store all your work and personal files here. Once they're on BeeStation, you can reach them from any web browser as well as from the desktop or mobile apps. Also, since you can use your Google account, Apple ID, or Synology account to sign in, you won't have to remember any extra logins.
Accelerated Performance for Single and Multi-User Scenarios
Upload your files via desktop or web at optimal speed with no slowdowns. Even with multiple users transferring or accessing files simultaneously, everyone can enjoy uninterrupted workflow. Once uploaded to BeeStation, your files are easily accessible and shareable to the public, wherever you are. For added security, protect shared links with passwords or expiration dates, ensuring that only the right people can access your files.
Independent Storage Space for Each User
Share the storage space with up to 8 users. Send an invitation link to anyone to give them their very own cloud space for managing their works, completely separate from others. This process is even easier for them; all they have to do is sign in with their Google, Apple account, or Synology Account.
Never Max Out Phone Storage Again
Backing up photos to BeeStation is as simple as opening the app. Just got back home from a trip? Turn on Focus Backup, and let thousands of photos upload overnight while you rest. Once backed up, your photos will be securely stored and accessible wherever you go.
Gather Your Scattered Photos Under One Roof
Managing photos across cloud storage and external drives can be a hassle. With BeeStation, you can transfer images from Google Photos, USB drives, or local folders on your computer to manage them in one place. You can also connect with your iCloud Photos for automatic downloads, ensuring a local backup is available to protect against accidental deletions.
Photo Organizer Driven by Local AI
Accelerated by its built-in GPU, BeeStation Plus's AI makes it easier than ever to find the people, pets, or things you're looking for—without ever sending your data to the cloud. You can also explore a world map to rediscover photos from the places you've been. With these features and more, BeeStation Plus takes the work out of photo organization, all while keeping your information secure and private.
Keep Your Cloud and USB Files In One Place
Got files all over the place? BeeStation can sync files from Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, including their collaborative workspace as well as back up any connected external and flash drives. That way, if you ever lose access to a cloud account or can't find a physical external drive, you can rest easy knowing you've got a backup on BeeStation.
Multimedia Streaming with Plex Media Server
BeeStation Plus features Plex Media Server, allowing you to create a personal media library. Access and stream your video collection to TV, computer, phone, or tablet anytime, from anywhere. Supporting hardware-accelerated streaming on Plex, BeeStation Plus delivers smoother video playback.
Robust Data Protection Built-In
BeeStation maintains internal restore points powered by snapshot technology, allowing you to roll back all data to a previous state in minutes. For added protection against disasters, theft, or hardware failures, you can back up BeeStation to BeeProtect, C2 Storage, an external drive, or a Synology NAS.
BeeProtect: Affordable, Set-and-Forget Cloud Backup
Every BeeStation includes a complimentary 3-month BeeProtect subscription, a privacy-first cloud backup service featuring client-side AES-256 encryption. This ensures all your data is encrypted with your password before being uploaded. With one subscription covering your entire BeeStation, you won't need to worry about upgrading for additional backup storage as your data grows.
