The Best Box Alternative with Better Features and Amazing Support!

FileCloud, Better Box alternative

Box for business is a useful enterprise-sharing solution which helps organizations securely manage, share, and govern content from one place. While Box is a good EFSS solution, FileCloud is a better Box alternative. FileCloud has been designed to meet the needs of enterprises offering top-level security and a powerful admin system. With FileCloud, you get Box-like security, features, customization and superior customer support but at a lower price and a suitably higher ROI.

Custom Branding Options

FileCloud is not only a powerful EFSS platform, but also allows brand customization to make your brand consistent with FileCloud. You can use your own logo, change login screens, customize colors and run FileCloud on your own custom domain (your own URL vs. box.com). FileCloud not only provides all the Box features, but also much more. FileCloud allows Self-Hosting on-premise for complete control as well as on the Cloud. FileCloud can also be used on a Windows Server, Mac or Linux.

FileCloud is Better Than Box

FileCloud provides secure file sharing, server sync, file preview, editing and unlimited cloud storage with FileCloud Server just like Box, but you can also self-host FileCloud, enable remote access, sync to network shares (NTFS) and ensure that you have 100% control over your data, keeping data on-premise. FileCloud provides advanced search, Metadata, workflow automation, granular permissions, tools to customize the user experience, data governance, custom workflows, monitor, and audit.
