Let users restore files with 1 click

Archiving data shouldn’t mean compromising usability. That’s why ShArc was built to preserve the familiar SharePoint experience, even after files have been offloaded to Azure Blob Storage. Whether users access their content through Teams, OneDrive, or SharePoint, retrieving an offloaded file is as simple as clicking on it. No training, no extra steps, no IT tickets.

Give your users seamless access, even after offloading

Behind the scenes, ShArc replaces offloaded files with lightweight “.sharc” stub files with a ShArc icon but still behave like the originals. When a user clicks one, they’re seamlessly redirected to the browser view of the file, and within seconds the file is ready to edit—directly in the web app (e.g., Word, Excel, PowerPoint Online). What this means for your users:

  • Works seamlessly with your existing workflows
  • Uses the tools your users already know and trust
  • Maintains all existing file permissions and access structures
  • Keeps your teams productive, even with archived files from months ago

Good for users, great for IT teams

This “one-click access” principle ensures that storage optimization doesn’t get in the way of efficiency. Your users stay focused on their work – not on searching for missing files or waiting for IT to restore them. For IT teams that means: 

  • Fewer support tickets
  • Fewer restore requests
  • Happier users who stay in flow

By keeping the retrieval process intuitive and fully integrated, ShArc bridges the gap between storage optimization and user convenience, making it the ideal solution for growing SharePoint environments with high productivity demands. Experience the simplicity of smart offloading and give your users the access they expect.
