You may have heard of OwnCloud\u00a0at least, if you’re not using one already. it with more than a couple users.<\/p>\n
Thanks to a very fine web frontend, and several standalone clients allowing to to use your shares as a network file system, OwnCloud is user friendly, and could be trusted hosting hundreds of accounts, if not thousands.
\nThe solution was installed in Smile, by Thibaut (59pilgrim). I didn’t mind that much, back then, I was using Pydio, and pretty satisfied already. We had around 700 users, not all being active, yet I could see the whole thing was pretty reliable.<\/p>\n
Pydio is a good candidate to compare with OwnCloud. Both offer pretty much the same services. OwnCloud has lots of apps to do everything, Pydio has plugins. Both are PHP-based opensource projects, with fairly active communities. Recently, disappointed by Pydio – something about having \\n in file names, preventing files from being uploaded to my Pydio server – I gave a shot to OwnCloud.

\nSmall advantage to OwnCloud though, with his native S3\u00a0connector<\/a>. And arguably, a better linux client and web experience.<\/p>\n
\nI haven’t lost hope in Pydio yet, but OwnCloud is definitely easier to deal with: I could even recommend it to a novice Linux enthusiast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
