# Does It Use WebClient

No. Zee Drive does not use the Microsoft Windows WebClient Service (AKA *WebDAV*). Zee Drive is a separate technology to the Windows WebClient service.

Whilst the WebClient service is commonly referred to as *WebDAV*, it is not in fact WebDAV. WebDAV is a [communications protocol](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4918). The WebClient service uses WebDAV to communicate with SharePoint. This is an important distinction.

{% hint style="info" %}
WebDAV is not in itself inherently *slow* as it is a protocol. Slowness would be an artifact of the implementation either of the WebDAV client or WebDAV server, or both.
