A safe home for all your data – Access & share your files, calendars, contacts, mail & more from any device, on your terms.
- Self-hosted keeps your data secure. Works great with desktop, mobile and web clients. Lots of add-on apps for mail, calendar, RSS feeds/news, music players, diagrams and more. Share files with third parties. Setup your own inbound file drops. Integrate it with Libre Office or Only Office for a full online office suite. There is more functionality released in every version. A clear winner. wizdude • Jun 2018 • 1 agrees and 0 disagrees

Installed box.com because I found a way to get 25gb for free. But it just doesnt work well. The sync client just hogs my cpu and stopped syncing anything a few days after installation. I had to remove it. Glad that I did not pay any money for it.

NightHeron · Jan 2013

I aggre that windows8 app sucks, but its a good sync app, and great offer the 25gbs. i will use this, of course megacloud.com is slightly better.

umm this app is alright

In regards to"Only with DropBox you can start with 2.25GB free Online storage", Nomadesk offers free online unlimited storage. How is it possible that Nomadesk is able to offer the free unlimited online storage ?

Box.net has a definitive targeting of their services to businesses and enterprises - simply reading their description can tell you that much. I don't store much on Box.net simply because I prefer more automated means of file storage and back up. But what I do use Box.net for are the 20 or so different "services" you can attach to your account, many of them are fee based services to the general public but Box.net users can use them for free without having to sign up directly with the service provider when used in conjunction with your Box docs. For instance, eFax is one of the services offered. Faxing something is literally as simple as selecting the document you'd like to fax, choose eFax from a drop menu, and filing in the dialing information. That's it. Their global folders are also cool too, it's like being able to choose your own domain.
