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.

With 8TB 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.

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.

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.

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.

Got files all over the place? BeeStation can sync files from Google Drive, OneDrive, and Dropbox, including their collaborative workspace4, 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.

Share storage with up to 8 users on one BeeStation. Send an invitation link to give each person their own private cloud space, completely separate from others. Users on the same BeeStation can also share files and folders, whether collaborating on the same project or collecting family photos, allowing everyone to view, upload, or remove files directly from the BeeStation interface.

BeeStation Plus now supports up to four Synology Cameras3 through BeeCamera, a home monitoring experience for those who want to keep an eye on their space without cloud dependency. All recordings are stored locally, while BeeCamera keeps you connected to your home or workspace with AI detection for people, pets, vehicles, and intrusions, plus live view for checking in anytime you're away. Easily review events and recordings, save key moments, and securely share access with other BeeStation users.

BeeStation Plus features Plex Media Server, allowing you to create and organize a personal media library. Access and stream your video collection to TV, computer, phone, or tablet anytime, from anywhere.

Back up the entire Mac or PC with Acronis True Image to BeeStation for peace of mind. Every BeeStation includes a 3-year Acronis True Image license, supporting full-system backups, one-click recovery, and ransomware protection to ensure fast system restoration and data safety.

Following the proven 3-2-1 backup principle, BeeStation allows you to create an additional copy of your data by backing up to another Synology NAS or an external drive. This ensures your data remain safe and recoverable even if your BeeStation is lost or damaged.

Every BeeStation includes a complimentary 3-month BeeProtect subscription, a privacy-first cloud backup service featuring client-side AES 256-bit encryption. This ensures all your data is encrypted with your password before being uploaded. With your files stored off-site, you can retrieve them anytime through a web browser if your BeeStation is no longer accessible due to theft, damage, or loss.
