## FileCloud Reviews
  ### 1. Great File Sharing Service for CMMC/NIST 800-181 Compliance

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Defense & Space | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

The security is easily the best. It's nice knowing that what you are sending is secure and at the same time is compliant with all the DoD-related restrictions that we face.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

Sometimes creating users can be difficult. I would create a user for someone we are sending files to and they cant login to their account. Usually resolved by deleting and remaking.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Compliance is the biggest problem that is being solved. It's difficult to find services that are approved for the various compliances we need to follow and FileCloud fits us perfectly. The realization of assurance is easily the biggest benefit considering how stressful compliance can be.

  ### 2. Consistently exceeded my expectations

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Automotive | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 10, 2023

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

One thing that sets FileCloud apart from their competitors is their dedication to innovation. They are always on the cutting edge of new technologies and are constantly working to improve their products to better meet the needs of their customers. Whether it's through software updates or new hardware releases, I always feel like I'm getting the best possible product from them.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

N/A This does not apply, as I Like everything

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Secure File Sharing with customers

  ### 3. Proficient and Secure Content Collaboration Online Platform

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Subhan G. | Senior Associate Consultant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 19, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

1. On a single platform, users may host, control, manage, backup, and safeguard content.
2. Proper care is taken on user privileges and permissions.
3. I also like the ability to inherit the current NTFS permissions set up with Active Directory integration as well as integration with Office 365 applications.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

1. It syncs too slowly compared to its rivals, such as Dropbox, Onedrive, etc. The indexing of files takes longer.
2. The price is a little hefty.
3. The tech support is weak and incompetent. They respond erratically, slowly, and offer no useful details.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

All stakeholders in our project, including architects, developers, administrators, and testers, seek to be able to send large documents via email links with ease. The best Active Directory-integrated file sharing platform FileCloud had emerged in that need. The performance of the VM is excellent, and we can allocate as much storage as we like with NO additional costs. The Outlook integration and mobile apps both work effectively, and the Windows client makes assigning drive letters a breeze.

  ### 4. The best cloud sharing tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Manvir S. | Business Analyst, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

The best thing is the uptime of filecloud and its features to give access to users and team or work on documents and share with team. Competitors currently do not have a robust offering like filecloud.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

The only thing is that it cannot monitor if a sensitive file shared with any user has been tampered or downloaded. So we cannot come to know this. I would like to see more improvement there to prevent data loss and data breach.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is beneficial in terms of providing reach of documents to the world without actually sending it. So neither me or the recipient has the issue of space. Our perfomance has increased for data sharing and storage.

  ### 5. Seamless

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kimo Y. | Director of Information Technology, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 05, 2023

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

The whole experience from first contact to setup was seamleass.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

If you choose on-prem installation, support is a little more hands off for Filecloud. There is a lot of documentation.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Data Governance and confidence that our data is safe.

  ### 6. Filecloud is a great on premise solution for CMMC compliance

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ryan T. | Cybersecurity Analyst I, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 26, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

Filecloud was one of the few solutions that allowed us to enforce two-factor authentication across our entire organization, as well as external contacts, out of the box.  For all other solutions, it was an option, but not easily implemented.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

The option for Setting up the Authenticator only is shown once, and if you miss it (by typing in a different authenticator, or by not seeing it), the 2FA settings for that particular user need to be reset.  A little pain, but not something many organizations have problems with, as they're not utilizing a dozen or so authenticators for their systems.

**Recommendations to others considering FileCloud:**

Filecloud is a good alternative to the expensive box.com or other type of FedRAMP compliant cloud solutions.  The cloud solutions are much easier to set up, but you pay through the nose in the end.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are required to be CMMC compliant, which means having NIST 800-171 completed (all controls).  This means that any and all connections to the company's infrastructure must be secured with two-factor authentication.  This solution allows us to share CUI/CTI/CDI-controlled unclassified information safely and securely.

  ### 7. Flexible and easy to use cloud service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 12, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

Sharing folders and files with Filecloud is easy and flexible as it allows many access settings (with or without log in, upload only etc.)
The dashboard is also very convenient.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

A few settings/information are a bit difficult to find in the admin account dashboard, but the Filecloud team is constantly improving the interface.
Aside from that nothing to complain about.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Using FilecCloud in a school.
FileCloud is a straightforward and customizable solution to share files with students and set up folders so they can submit their work.
Students can access or submit files without being required to log in, making the whole process fast and easy for them.
Organizing work submissions with FileCloud helped us to save time.

  ### 8. it helped me a lot in all my work

**Reviewed Date:** February 16, 2023

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I needed support because I had to back up my existing files and follow my current list closely.

  ### 9. Very easy to use file management tool.

**Reviewed by:** Linus E. | Web Developer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

It provides features like security, file storage and very nice API access.
Seamless integration with Microsoft.
Intuitive interface which makes it easy to manage.
It is easy and fast to share files with colleagues.

  ### 10. Filecloud is a Very good On-Premise solution for file sharing

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Shawn I. | Desktop Support Technician, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 30, 2021

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

Filecloud is very easy to navigate the administration interface (setting user permissions for shares and files).

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

The user interface for the filecloud application can be a little confusing for users that are not as tech-savvy.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are required to store data on-premise and this was a great solution for sharing large files and folders with customers.

  ### 11. The hypersecurity of your files in FileCloud

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** ERICK ANDERSON A. | Bachiller en ingenieria informatica, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 22, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

The hosting provided by FileCloud, compared to other apps, is secure regarding the number of files we can upload without worrying about losing our files someday.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

Restrict file uploads, I think this function should be removed because I feel it is unnecessary since we are fully aware that we want to have what we wish to upload to FileCloud in the cloud.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It benefits me in the peace of mind I get from knowing that the application is taking control of my cloud files without damaging and/or affecting their state.

  ### 12. Excellent product for on-prem file sharing solution.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 04, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

We needed an on-prem solution similar to onedrive, dropbox, etc that we could control and keep the data on-prem.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

The one big pain point is when files are deleted, they sometimes will pop back even with all the correct settings. We have to get support involved and they have to make changes at the db level to fix.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

On-prem file sharing solution. Everything is mostly some sort of cloud offering which we can't use due to some compliance rules.

  ### 13. Very good cloud software for small-medium and larger businesses

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

The ease of use in sharing to anyone who needs a link, other products demand a local login, cloud accounts are even worse, this allows us to create accounts as we need it but also shared openly if we can. 
The granular sharing capability in filecloud is something that I can appreciate in that it allows for every share and every user to have different sharable permissions.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

The OCR software is locked behind enterprise which is the one thing I really needed out of filecloud Enterprise solution to allow those of us who need to search by keywords to

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

secure storage allows us to know that things are backed up and that we won't have random service drops or shared with people forced to sign up for an account on a platform they won't otherwise use.   We also can't be locked put because  some cloud scanner determined a file we have was worth locking our account over.

  ### 14. Very Good Application

  ### 16. File sharing program

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Flora A. | Senior specialist of the international-foreign exchange group of back office, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

You can share file using filecloud, also can backup the files that you already have deleted. The interface is very user friendly, you can get access to all necessary buttons very quickly. You can keep a copy of files on your desktop for editing or offline access.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

For me the settings are not so clear as I wanted to be. Also the cost is a little higher than other similar products.  I had some troubles while installing the program.

It is especially for business users, so it can combine different tasks in one place. The file sharing option works very well, so you can share files withe other companies.

  ### 17. FileCloud changes Small Business file management for better

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brian A. | owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 11, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

FileCloud extends the capability of our customer's File Servers and not only allows a better work-from-home capability, but the power to share files outside the organization is imperative to small businesses

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

At times, the setup can be cumbersome and the updates take a little getting used to - once upon a time we could just click on "update" and get it done, but now it takes more time, but the time is well worth it because every update is packed with value.

**Recommendations to others considering FileCloud:**

Consider "cost of ownership" and the chaos that other cloud-based file systems can create. OneDrive creates more chaos than Dropbox... FileCloud allows me and my team to quickly roll out a web-based file system (and drive based with FileCloud Drive) and control that environment better than any other solution.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

File Sharing was our first issue that FileCloud solved, then we needed something for work-from-home solutions, and we already had it, right there... without a lengthy project of onboarding files and users to OneDrive - we just put FileCloud on top of the existing file server and viola - users were working from home.

the first thing we have to pay for the service we have using it can be a monthly basis or to any level depending on what type of plan you purchase.

Usually, our data is present on the cloud, so whoever wants to access it for their application is used and merage again on the cloud for another user to access it. So this is very helpful instead on operating data  manually

  ### 20. FIleCloud made easy for managing files

**Reviewed by:** Saikrishna G. | Wordpress Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

FileCloud is always easy to share files with clients, users, employees, and within the company for intercommunication. it comes up with a lot of integration apps like AWS, GMAIL, WORD, EXCEL, SALESFORCE etc... which makes it more powerful. the best thing is we can organize however we need with the custom domain so that we can share it outside the company.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

It's quite difficult for the initial stage to set up the storage once you get a hands-on the tools it will be perfect so making it more userfriendly will be helpful, a video tutorial or user manual for to understand the tool will be good. also, only a few times while sending big files I face a lag issue that needs to be corrected.

With FileCloud we wanted to manage our data more efficiently with regular files and big files where security is also a concern till now its working good and helping us in structuring our data with ease.

**Reviewed by:** Elrico D. | Student, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 28, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

What I like best about FileCloud is that, it gives you an opportunity to both save and receive from the clouds very quickly. I like how lovely this is and how much of cheaper it is we'll it's not the same as other cloud comp savings but it has it's perks. I would personally recommend this to new beginners who is in the look for a saving storage.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

There's nothing I personally to dislike FileCloud. Like I said before it has it's perks and moment's. What I meant by this is obviously the network sometimes is very unstable or comes to a freezing point to not be compatible with other operating systems and all.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The benefits is that the deployment & flexibility part of FileCloud. This has been helpful the most. Apart from windows and other cloud storages. The run of the operating and the usability of FileCloud is fantastic and reliable and worth paying for.

**Reviewed by:** Todd M. | IT Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

I enjoy the backend of the product.  The interface is simple, yet powerful.  The backup is quite robust and allowed us to move away from our current backup solution, thus saving us money.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

It can be difficult to share files to members that are not part of your team folders.  If the files are moved at any point you need to send another link and that can be confusing.

**Recommendations to others considering FileCloud:**

An affordable solution for Cloud Content Collaboration.

Our biggest problem was having shared drives without an active directory.  This has allowed us to do just that and also allowed our remote locations to have the same access as our main office.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Russell H. | CIO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 20, 2022

**What do you like best about FileCloud?**

Extremely easy to set up and use. We use the hosted version and are very pleased with it. The support is very good (on the rare occasions we've had to use it), and responses are prompt. We use it for both secure email and secure file transfers on our website. The price is much better than the competing products we've evaluated. The monitoring software works well and is updated regularly. We have implemented this product across the company, and have had no real problems at all.

**What do you dislike about FileCloud?**

Not really anything. There were a couple of instances early-on where our secure website transfer function lost its connection, and in both cases, the problem was resolved immediately. We have not had any issues at all in at least 18 months.

**Recommendations to others considering FileCloud:**

If you need a product for both secure email and secure website file transfers, this is the one.

**What problems is FileCloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

FileCloud allows us to implement both secure email solutions, as well as secure website file transfers. It does it with no real burden on the customers because they don't have to deal with any encryption settings themselves. It is approved by our regulators for both of these purposes, and that makes our examinations much less difficult. It has also significantly reduced issues with receiving sensitive documents from customers.
