Work as a consultant for a really small firm, we need a file sharing program/site that allows us to upload files/documents and for every user (less than 10) to be able to add/delete/edit documents.

I've used IDrive, but you have to use links to share files and the links expire.

We need simple, no links for access, each user logs in and has the ability to add/delete/edit files and folders. Don't mind paying, but want simple and functional.

Thanks for the help!

If you had your email through google, Drive would be a no-brainer since you'd already have accounts.

Dropbox is like Drive but probably a little better just less storage and not as organized if you will be sharing within a group. There are plenty of other FREE services like those.

Client just sent me a link from sharefile which is pretty cool but $60 a month for your needs.

I ended up replacing our server with a NAS that has native software for remotely accessing the machine either through a web browser or a virtual network connection. No monthly service but cost about $700.

We use dropbox. We have not had an issue and we have used it for almost two years.

I'm pretty sure Sharepoint Online would work and I think it's only a few bucks a month.

Might have to buy an Office365 subscription to use it though.

Seems like you should upgrade whatever computer has the most SATA ports, then load that one with as big a set of HDDs you need and just use FreeNAS.


This doesn't include a backup solution, which you should also take into consideration.
