(I posted in cryptomator's page too)
For me, I only compare cyptomator to boxcryptor. ctmt is good: foss, free.
but boxcryptor is more useable.
boxcryptor is good: treat file as a file, not bundled inside a vault.
This make boxcryptor MUCH more preferred.
however, boxcryptor has bad pt: close source, paid version for encrypted filename, limited device, no linux ver.
It appears that Boxcryptor does have a portable Linux version now on their downloads page.

Fast, Secure, Scalable, multi-platform, multiple cloud storage supported. Works flawlessly on Windows and Android, storing >500GB (800,000+ files) encrypted. Works great with OneDrive, Google Drive & DropBox cloud storage.
I've used a lot of the cloud backup & encryption solutions - Tresorit and SpiderOak are two of the best - but they come at a premium cost - Boxcryptor comes in at a much better price-point - and supports all the well known cloud providers that you already use.
As a bonus - works really well with OneDrive for Business 5TB (5,000GB) storage plan ;)
Extremley good support and a fantastic product with a great UI and advanced security features
Boxcryptor worked well for a while, but then it started crashing. Always this happened when transferring large numbers of files (3000+) into my Dropbox folder inside Boxcryptor. This makes it too unreliable as a backup system
