Why FileCloud is the Best Onedrive for Business Alternative?
Designed for Enterprise
Microsoft OneDrive has features like advance sharing, mobility and security like every other EFSS client.

With top-notch security and a powerful Admin system, FileCloud has been designed for enterprise.
Fits Every Organization
All organizational file sharing/collaboration requirements are not the same. They differ from industry to industry and from country to country – different data privacy laws/jurisdictions. FileCloud is not only a robust platform but also a flexible solution that can fit your organization file sharing/ collaboration work-flows perfectly.
Amazing Features
FileCloud has implemented centralized device management, federated search, role based access, meta data management system and much more. FileCloud also has selective sync, virtual drive, unlimited storage, enhanced security features, endpoint backup and built-in ransomware protection. Feature List
