    FileCloud
    FileCloud is well suited for companies who want to utilize a cloud storage system but not use products such as Box or OneDrive. FileCloud allows the company to host everything on their own servers and have full administrative access to everything they need. If you don't have someone to manage a server, or don't need to have the granular admin access, this wouldn't be appropriate.

    Kiteworks
    Kiteworks is very good for securely sharing files external to your company and doing so without your customers knowing who each other are. The interface is simple and relatively intuitive. We have had some issues in getting timely support from Accellion this past year, but they seem to be doing better lately.

    • Encrypting our files appears to be less than 100% complete
    • Software updates cannot be scheduled to take place automatically like their old product
    • Detailed activity logging is not available to administrators. You must submit the logs to Accellion for analysis.

    Their product is actively being updated and has better integration with the Mac platform which Varonis Datanywhere was lacking. In addition, the pricing is substantially cheaper than that compared for Varonis and FileCloud has more capabilities to sync, access, and download the data. Overall the comparison wins by far against one of their competitors.

    The main reason for selecting Kiteworks is that when sharing files with multiple customers, each customer has no idea who the other customers are. To do that in Teams would require users to create a private team for each customer, which would be very [time-consuming].
