Better Pydio alternative
FileCoud is a better Pydio cloud alternative despite Pydio being a comprehensive sync and share platform. Pydio and FileCloud both can be deployed either in a private cloud or on-premises.

Numerous bugs have been reported in the project by consumers, thereby necessitating a substitute that overcomes such shortcomings.
