How is this better than redirected folders at this time? I can definitely see how Work Folders will split off from redirected in the future though.

Yes, Work Folders have been a big deal for Windows Server. They provide a DropBox style functionality right from Windows.

I used to be big into work folders when it first came out. But, I've given up on it ever becoming fully implemented. The promised apps for mobile devices never showed up. It took about 8 months for the Windows 7 app to even be made after the Win 2k12 R2 release.
