Overall Satisfaction with ownCloud
We use ownCloud across the whole organization. We manage file sharing in a secure way with employees, partners, and customers through our private cloud infrastructure. We have implemented our own ownCloud Solution based on an appliances format, so we can deploy ownCloud in a few minutes with enhanced features developed by ourselves. The information from several sources is replicated to the exact folder of ownCloud so it is available in real time by the suitable people with the suitable permissions.
- Easy to deploy
- Easy to manage
- Cost-effective
- Improve productivity
- Improve security
- Improve compliance
I have used several products based on public (DropBox, Google Drive, Microsoft Drive, etc) and private cloud (Citrix). Most of them work on public cloud space so they could present problems with compliance. Also, it is usually difficult to protect the information contained in this environments. On the other hand, enterprise features are usually included in enterprise versions. The on-premise solutions as Citrix are very expensive when you have hundreds or thousands of users.
