"Seafile is the most reliable open source file sync solution available."
5/5
What do you like best about Seafile?

The feature set for Seafile is very robust whether you are deploying it for personal, business, or multi-tenant use. From a business features perspective, it integrates well with enterprise authentication, both traditional and modern authentication. Sharing files and libraries between users is straight forward and it can also integrate with OnlyOffice online editors as well as Microsoft Office Online editors making collaboration with co-workers easy. Seafile supports different storage backend which makes deployments very flexible depending on where you deploy it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Seafile?

Seafile recently dropped support for Red Hat based distributions like RHEL, CentOS, and others. As of Seafile 9 it still works properly on RHEL but it is something I'm keeping an eye on. Though the installation of Seafile is fairly straightforward I would prefer to install it with a native package for non-container-based installations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Platform for Syncing and Organizing your Files into Libraries."
5/5
What do you like best about Seafile?

You can selectively sync these libraries into any device. Efficient and reliable file syncing helps in improving productivity. It also helps in extending disk space.

What do you dislike about Seafile?

User right management is provided in it but some improvements are needed in it as it is a bit confusing. It is only helpful in syncing files but it should also provide features for syncing calendars and contacts as well. It is difficult to install t as it takes a lot of time. It has a locking feature for files but it should be more simplified so that users can easily understand it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
