Über FileCloud
Eine Enterprise-File-Services-Plattform, die Dateifreigabe, Synchronisierung, Sicherung, Zusammenarbeit an Dokumenten und Suche bietet.
What we like the most of FileCloud software is the multiple customization options it has so we could adapt easily without too much compromises to our use case.
Expensive for what it does, licensing it can be a pain and the license expires causing downtime sometimes randomly. Example license will "expire" on Jan 30 2020 even though it runs until Jan 230 2021.

Excellent platform for customer file share and dataroom
Vorteile:
We use it as a virtual dataroom. Very easy to setup access, implement MFA, use custom styling and logos.
Nachteile:
Although FileCloud is not expensive, guest users can be a hidden cost.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Top notch online file server with all the features you need at a price you can justify!
Kommentare: The main goal by moving to filecloud online was to allow remote collaboration and work to be done on files and documents that previously require being logged into a device at a physical location. By allowing users to access files and make changes etc remotely this has allowed more users to work on more things at home with less trips onsite. So costs and efficiency have improved dramatically thus far.
Vorteile:
The integration was very smooth, cost was incredibly fair. The user interface is very streamlined and intuitive for the end-user experience. The administration is simple and effortless. I like the collaborative features, the ability to encrypt the data, lock down access via permissions on a group or user basis.
Nachteile:
Nothing that we have come across so far would I classify as something I disliked. From the initial migration from an on-premise server to filecloud online, setting up users, permissions, adding files etc. Every thing has went smooth with no complaints from the end-users or the administrators.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
It has great potentials but it's not perfect
Kommentare: I would say just ok. We don't have an alternative nor the time to look for one. Dropbox was a much better system until it stopped working (and their customer service is totally unreliable)
Vorteile:
I like the complexity of permissions and the possibility to seprate users and privileges
Nachteile:
It takes too long to sync. Dropbox or Onedrive sync almost instantly, Filecloud takes several minutes and sometimes half hour. When working in a team these times are impossible. You start working on a file that has already been modified by someone else. This alone makes the software useless for certain types of work. It is so slow that we dropped it altogether and went back to vpn If you delete a file, sometimes the same one comes back with the same name (zero kb). This issue has been reported several times but never really fixed. It is much better with the latest versions but the problem is still there
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
FileCloud a great alternative for SharePoint for clients that can't or won't move
Kommentare: The sales team and support team (when needed) have been professional and incredibly quick.
Vorteile:
Integration with Office 365 applications and the ability to inherit the current NTFS permissions implemented with Active Directory integration makes this much easier to transition
Nachteile:
The only con I have is also a pro; but its that some of our clients still have or need on-premises servers. FileCloud allows for these clients to benefit from the features that SharePoint brings though, without the on-premises licensing costs and management overhead.
Great Product, Great Customer Service!
Kommentare: Great. There was a hiccup with my first demo, but after that I have been able to get things moving in the right direction. We have been happy with the product so far and we are happy we made the switch to FileCloud.
Vorteile:
I like the ease of use and how easy it is to train employees on how to use the system. We had a very clumsy system before hand, and it was difficult for people to use and understand. This is the opposite.
Nachteile:
Nothing, seems like things are working as expected and everyone in my organization is happy!

The best On-Premises Enterprise File Sharing and Sync solution
Kommentare: We had a requirement to have an on premise solution for an enterprise file sharing and sync program. From the onset of discovering Filecloud, the experience has been great. We were able to do a couple of demo's with their technical team via webinars. Once we decided to proceed to the next step, we were able to download a fully functional version and had help to get it setup exactly how we needed it with a nice long trial period. Technical support was available whenever we needed it, but most of the time it was not needed because of their fantastic knowledge base of articles that are complete with pictures at every step and every detail of the product. We have been using the product since version 18, and every full release brings new features and speed. Most of these are customer driven via their community page. It's great to have a company listen to their customers and then give them exactly what they asked for.
Vorteile:
The ease of use of the product is one of its greatest pro's. The webpage and mobile phone apps are nearly identical and incredibly easy to use. Intuitive is a word used a little too much, but it describes FileCloud perfectly. Our Employees were able to adapt from a different product with minimal training. As products like this are normally used to share large files, too big for email, FileCloud knocks it out of the park with their Outlook Add-In, putting access to user's files exactly where they need it. The sync app provides further OS integration as it is integrated into File Explorer on a PC or the Finder on MacOS allowing users to use their FileCloud files, wherever they are, no matter what level of connectivity they have. The fact that the solution is on our servers, behind our security allows us to fully control our data.
Nachteile:
We maintain this solution on premise so it would be nice if FileCloud could add data deduplication to help us save some storage.

"Affordable and easy cloud MFT solution"
Kommentare: FileCloud is an effective system for securely sharing data with internal/external customers.This tool is great for remote workers which provides effective collaboration.
Vorteile:
Secure, powerful and collaborative tool for mass file transfers and content delivery.
Nachteile:
Drop out issues. Connectivity when uploading files sometimes lags

Why I chose FileCloud
Kommentare: We initially hosted FileCloud on our own server, but moved to FileCloud online about 18 moths ago. Like all software, it breaks occasionally. Unlike many, the support is fantastic, not only quick and responsive, but when they tell you how to fix the issue and you've no idea what the words mean, they'll just remote in and fix it for you. Overall, I can't fault FileCloud
Vorteile:
White label. Different user types Integration in to Windows explorer.
Nachteile:
I'm struggling to think of things here, I'll come back and change this if I think of any.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Responsible for the INtegration of new products and for all system technical issues
Kommentare: In principle, a good product but as mentioned somewhat flawed.
Vorteile:
Easy to use and quickly integrated.
Nachteile:
The many little mistakes that sometimes make life harder for us. Search function which does not work properly. Data which is not properly backed up for whatever reason. New functions which are not really well thought out. Example DesktopEdit, data is locked but then not unlocked, etc.. The collaboration as in Sharepoint or other comparable products is missing here. Is a pity would enhance the product even more.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Great product a a moderate cost
Kommentare: We did not have to writhe the software ourselves. FileCloud came at just the right cost and set of features.
Vorteile:
It is important to us to run the file exchange on premises. This product checks all the important checkboxes.
Nachteile:
Nothing of significance so far. Frequent updates - I guess this is actually a benefit but it takes administrative resources.
Filecloud filesharing
Vorteile:
customization, availability to host locally on prem and low learning curve
Nachteile:
The cost is major con which should be improved specially for companies using on prem solution.
it is a cloud storage and file sharing solution.
Kommentare: FileCloud is a comprehensive and secure cloud storage solution that offers businesses and individuals a reliable and cost-effective way to store, access, and share their data from any device, anywhere, at any time.
Vorteile:
FileCloud is a cost-effective solution for businesses and individuals, offering a reliable and secure way to store, access, and share data without the need for expensive hardware or IT support.Security: FileCloud provides robust security features such as data encryption, multi-factor authentication, and granular user permissions, ensuring that sensitive data is kept safe and secure.
Nachteile:
Limited Storage Space: Depending on the plan chosen, users may have limited storage space, which can be a challenge for businesses with large amounts of data.FileCloud requires an internet connection to access data, which can be problematic in areas with limited or unreliable connectivity.
It enabled us to save and share data seamlessly in a secure area.
Kommentare: FileCloud helped us secure strong protection for our data, as we ensure that we protect it from tampering and enable us to access it easily at any time.
Vorteile:
FileCloud is one of the most trusted tools, as it enables me to save and share files securely and with ease. I appreciate that FileCloud is easy to set up, and transferring files to it is straightforward and do not take much time. Security and protection standards are solid and practical, and we avoided tampering and hacking. It's also great that FileCloud integrates efficiently with the applications we use and connects with them quickly, enabling us to use it to store files and data directly. Accessibility is guaranteed, as I can use it from any device without any issues.
Nachteile:
As for the operations of saving files and data, they are done smoothly and without any problems, but when sharing a file with colleagues, I may face some issues, as he may make modifications to the file and save it without my knowledge, which makes me lose the original copy. Therefore it is good to have customization Permissions for upcoming updates.
Best enterprise file sharing
Vorteile:
Workflow automation save us dozen of days and the enterprise file sharing is very cool, it works very well. Its user experience is very good
Nachteile:
Its a little bit expensive than other tools, but, it works very well
FileCloud in an academic environment
Kommentare: It has been a bit of a rough ride. We had some difficulty getting everything working on our servers. It has required many calls to the Technical support to get the installation right. I think in the initial stages, it would be best if the FileCloud team shepherds the installation to avoid small errors (such as some packages missing etc.). Usually the IT team of the host institutions does not have the skill and familiarity with the FileCloud installation to spot something amiss.
Vorteile:
In academic environments there is not much hierarchy in the organisation and nor is there a strict command structure. The need of the day is to be able to easily store, retrieve and share documents among a large indisciplined bunch of people. Most of the stored information is poorly documented and tagged. Yet, when running large scientific projects there are Commercial and Administrative documents which require hierarchical access controls and cannot be stored on public servers like Google or Apple drives. FileCloud permits us to customise access control for this particular environment. The interfaces with popular editing environments such as Libre Office and simultaneous online editing features are important for us. It is also quite critical that we have the software on our own servers as this is often a requirement on government supported institutions.
Nachteile:
It is a but clunky and non-intuitive. The initial users are a bit put off by the steep learning curve that is required to use the tool. The number of options and switches are daunting. We are as yet at the beginning stages of this use. It remains to be seen how this proceeds and becomes an integral part of our organisation. And we are cash strapped, so keeping the subscription prices low would be a definite plus. If the per user per year price goes up we would be hard pressed to continue.
FileCloud Keeps Us Connected
Kommentare: FileCloud has allowed us to sync our data across several locations and given us a way to access files remotely when employees work outside the office or if a server were to go down. This level of access and redundancy with our work has kept things running smoothly even through things like the COVID shutdown.
Vorteile:
We rely heavily on FileCloud Server Sync to keep the servers in our three offices synced so that employees can all work from the same set of files. This is critically important when we have employees from different offices working on the same projects. FileCloud helps us prevent the formation of data silos where project files collect in a single office and other offices don't have access.
Nachteile:
The most challenging part of using FileCloud is getting things set up on the various servers and setting up users for the first time. Once you've done it a couple of times it gets easier. As a small company without an IT department some of the options during setup can seem intimidating.
FileCloud is an maazing a much needed tool in todays widely used cloud environments
Kommentare: I love this product and the support team! The support staff is very responsive and will ensure they help you thru any issues you may face.
Vorteile:
I feel that the drag and drop and DocIQ are amazing tools to have. When dealing with cloud environments, the hurdle of moving files locally to the cloud has been made easier with this product. Sharing files with others in the cloud has never been easier.
Nachteile:
The software has improved so much that there are no features I can complain about.
FIle Cloud, File Share and collaboration done right
Kommentare: Extremely easy and pleasant.
Vorteile:
Very easy to use, but detailed options for any use case. Support is very responsive!
Nachteile:
So far there has been no down sides or difficulty
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
A valid product
Kommentare: The product is very valid and powerful, with many features that are continuously added. The overal experience is very good. I will surely recommend FileCloud to other customers.
Vorteile:
The DLP method is effective, as well the various options for file and folder sharing. The GUI is nice and smooth and easy to use and the integrations with other SSO technologies is easy to implement and very stable.
Nachteile:
The file indexing is slower than other product on big file servers, and sometimes the indexed search is not working as expected. The file/folder listing is a little bit slow on big folders.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Filecloud is the storage you need
Kommentare: The file sharing and storing between users is much improved thanks to Filecloud.
Vorteile:
The thing i like the most about file cloud is the ease of use of it. Including the interface, which is just like a regular file explorer on my windows PC.
Nachteile:
To be quite honest there's not much that can be done to improve the ease of use this product brings.
Game changer
Vorteile:
This system is a vital tool to our company; keeping and sharing files in File Cloud has made things so much easier than emailing important documents!
Nachteile:
I don't particularly like how File Cloud adds new users. As the admin, I would like to order new licenses straight from my admin screen. I wouldn't say I like how I have to log into a separate site and wait for that user to be added.

Budaker Review Hungary
Kommentare: Very positive experience, great support team, always ready to solve problems within 24 hours.
Vorteile:
Easy to set up, user friendly system. Easy recovery of deleted files
Nachteile:
Missing local support, and language. FileSync trouble shooting information missing. How to's regarding installation or remove of client sync programs.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Better then free products
Vorteile:
We had worked a lot with free solutions but, lot of times during usage we encountered bugs or errors; without a correct support it's unusable on production system. We don't like to use cloud to transfert data and we preferred having an on-premises version.
Nachteile:
Support is really responsive! Functionalities are really helpful with our work!
Useful for archive
Kommentare: Useful for allowing access to common files.
Vorteile:
Able to implement user level security on folders. Good viewing access on multiple devices. Easy to admin users. Able to Sync and also able to WebDav.
Nachteile:
Sync software is dreadful, hogs CPU & bandwidth and uses an outdated file - delete - copy mechanism from the 90s. Be aware if you move a set of folders on the server, the replication then deletes the folders on the client then recopies. Really bad if it is a big folder. (you cant do a basic function for example, setup a new laptop for a user, swiftly copy a set of files that will be mirrored, then start the sync. It will either delete all these files and recopy the lot, or, if they are in different locations, it will recopy them back to the server causing frustrating duplication.
Game Changer!!
Kommentare: We did not want to use a hosted cloud file sharing option to move aware from our outdated and clunky ftp server. Filecloud's on prem option was exactly what we needed to get into an intuitive "cloud" style file sharing and collaboration platform while still retaining full control of our data and keeping it onsite. can't say enough good things about this product, it's very mature, well thought out and executed, and everything just works!
Vorteile:
-on prem option -in depth granular control of EVERYTHING!! incredible! -feels like a very mature and well thought out/executed solution -intuitive and easy to use for end users -awesome support for syncing and sharing across all platforms -incredible and helpful support team that are with you 100% of the way
Nachteile:
-the admin side isn't quite as intuitive as the end user front end. with that said, you just need to work with their support team to get a tutorial and walkthrough to wrap your head around how to configure everything and then you are good to go.
