I've set up a 2TB NAS drive connected to my Seafile account \& from there, I was quickly able to establish drive clients for our project team to access our files directly from our company computers \& smartphones. Creating \& assigning users with access privileges to specific directories can be done effortlessly to ensure that the data remain intact without unintentional tampering. Moreover, transferring data from a desktop computer or mobile has been blazing fast on our 2.5 gigabit office ethernet \& the user interface deserves a lot of praise for its snappy performance \& features to modify \& share files across connected users \& groups at our office. > > **Cons**: My project team \& I have zero complaints regarding the functionality \& overall usability of the software. It works perfectly well. > > Seafile performs commendably well as a self-hosting cloud solution with its incredible user experience \& features offered across all connected devices. Assigning users, drive clients, sharing data among users, file versioning \& access controls are brilliantly implemented in Seafile to ensure optimal usability \& convenience, thus effectively making our workspace more manageable without interruptions. ----- ### "Superfast and reliably sync and share solution" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *31 July 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Seafile does not require a lot of training. After configuring the synchronisation in the seafile client (available for windows, linux and mac) the client is working without any problems in the background. Changes on the clients or the server are detected fast and the synchronisation starts immediately. > > **Cons**: The first implementation was not straightforward. The documentation is not that clear and precise. Important hints are hidden in the update notes or some parameters are not documented at all. On the contrary, after the initial setup, seafile is running without any problems. > > Sharing files in the team is the main purpose. We need control of our data, and we want to have the ability to manage who has access to the files. ----- ### "Home Server" — 5.0/5 > **Matthew** | *7 September 2021* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The client is simple and easy to use. Files are synced in a timely manner, always correct and have no issues. I use a local server running Seafile on Linux with a Docker container. Seafile sends the files to the server in real-time for document management (and the server does backups). Simple enough for my wife and kids to use for pictures, videos, school work (we homeschool) and documents. Previously we used Perforce (I am a software engineer), but that was too complicated for my family. Seafile is great replacement. > > **Cons**: Version history is a little weak. I would like more control over what is kept and what is overwritten. Automated backups would be a great addition. > > Seafile just works and does it's job in the background. For my family, files are magically backed up and shared between computers with no issues. ----- ### "Fast and reliable file storage with full control over business data" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *2 August 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Speed and reliabilty of file synchronization. Changes to files are synced more or less instantaneously after hitting save which gives peace of mind that my business-critical project files are backed up without any effort from my side. > > **Cons**: Personally I would appreicate an option to share libraries as Samba shares so I can mount libraries as a network drive without syncing them to my laptop. WebDav limits file transfers to 4GB per file which is too low for my use case. > > Easy to use, flexible setup of folder sync pairs (synced folders do not have to be located within a single overarching directory as is the case for many alternative solutions). ----- ### "Really Fast, Reliable, File Synchronization" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *14 July 2022* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love how fast it does synchronization. It's also fairly low-maintenance once it is set up properly. I love that I can integrate OnlyOffice into it. > > **Cons**: The setup can be a little difficult at first. The documentation detailing the setup is pretty decent, but you have to know which parts to use and which to ignore. > > I've been using Seafile for a few years now. I have never had issues with files getting corrupted (looking at you, Nextcloud\!). The OnlyOffice integration works well and is really handy for editing documents right in your browser. Seafile also supports WebDAV, which makes it easy to edit documents using Microsoft Office on my mobile phone. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/161574/seafile?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.sg/software/161574/seafile) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | it | | ----- ## Structured Data
