I like the "innovative" idea that you are responsible for the safety of your data. I want to save my data on my server, and Pydio can do it for me.

Quick set up - simple yet powerful - for plain vanilla users up to professional users. Recommended.

Pydio is the best web filemanager that have ever been created, it's stable, works on all systems and it got it's own sync client for all operating systems. i have been runing pydio (formerly ajaxplorer) since i got my first lgnas that had pydio pre-installed. i just can't let it go.

Easy to install, yet an ancient option by default taking down entire folder if there are non-latin symbols, and setup, but a bit overloaded UI.

There are some plugins expanding functionality. An interesting solution for a private cloud.
