You can install it on any type of web server (a hosting account, a PC/laptop running a HTTP server on Windows, Mac or Linux), a NAS (like Synology, QNAP, TrueNAS, unRaid etc). It is very fast yet feature rich. It allows you to access your files from anywhere (desktop, mobile app or browser), and automatically keep files in sync between your devices and the server. - **4** discussions - · **100%** answered - · **7** participants ![FileRun](https://images.g2crowd.com/uploads/product/image/large_detail/large_detail_1e53a67b2175217d0524944e79f33651/filerun.png "FileRun") FileRun Discussions Most CommentedMost HelpfulCommon QuestionsNewest Showing **4** discussions ![Pinned by G2 as a common question](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Pinned by G2 as a common question") G2 Pinned by G2 as a common question • over 3 years ago More Options - Share [![linkedin](/assets/social-logos/linkedin-afe65e46604a5bd5105ab9c856116204040b6b3f2b2d42562fc8071ca0c48ca0.svg "linkedin")](https://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&summary=Is+FileRun+open+source%3F&title=Is+FileRun+open+source%3F&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.g2.com%2Fdiscussions%2Fis-filerun-open-source) [![twitter](/assets/social-logos/twitter-61aaec80434c71387b8f7326e480592eae71c0a65afd051d66fce9b75a9bf417.svg "twitter")](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=Is+FileRun+open+source%3F&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.g2.com%2Fdiscussions%2Fis-filerun-open-source&via=G2dotcom) [![facebook](/assets/social-logos/facebook-350d0b410d6b10debcf893050e803a8633d53561aa42807b087b8daf9be3668f.svg "facebook")](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.g2.com%2Fdiscussions%2Fis-filerun-open-source) [![gmail](/assets/social-logos/gmail-6db42f21e7c254fae201b112bef0dd15d25223a5cbb32691ce80eab43761eadf.svg "gmail")](https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&tf=1&to=&su=Is+FileRun+open+source%3F&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.g2.com%2Fdiscussions%2Fis-filerun-open-source%0aIs+FileRun+open+source%3F) [![mail](/assets/social-logos/mail-d55c53b04bf49872e40cd2443b85a99caa23394e6cf154ae32a9d08377c15d86.svg "mail")](mailto:?subject=Is+FileRun+open+source%3F&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.g2.com%2Fdiscussions%2Fis-filerun-open-source%0aIs+FileRun+open+source%3F) - Copy link - [ ## Is FileRun open source? ](/discussions/is-filerun-open-source) Is FileRun open source?
