Secure file sharing has reduced licensing costs but still needs a more intuitive interface
One improvement FileCloud could benefit from is modernizing the UI and user experience. While it is highly functional, its interface feels enterprise-focused. A sleek, minimal design that is more intuitive would reduce the learning curve for complex employees and streamline the settings and menus to make the administrator's life easier. Additionally, I would appreciate having native real-time collaboration. Although integrations with Microsoft Office or other software as a service offerings exist, they are not as seamless as a native experience. If FileCloud built its own native collaborative editor or made an agreement with Microsoft, it would eliminate the slight lag that users feel when opening documents. I also think it could improve by reducing the complexity of the initial setup in an on-premise environment.

Centralized access control has strengthened least privilege and streamlined audit compliance
The best features Veza offers in my experience are access visibility to see who can access what and which parts, relationship mapping of a user to roles, policies and resources, and risk detection such as over-permission and unused permission privileges. I can perform audit compliance using those features and the platform supports multiple platforms. Out of those features, I find risk detection to be the most valuable in my day-to-day work because I can check who has over-permission or unused permissions and understand relationship mapping and access visibility. Veza has positively impacted my organization by improving access for our users, allowing us to check the user and perform auditing for our system or organization. We are now able to implement least privilege practices, which has made our organization and system more secure.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Since using FileCloud, we have saved approximately 40% of the time it previously took to access data because we can retrieve information at any time with an internet connection."
"Overall, FileCloud is a strong fit for what we need; it gives us better control, better user experience, and much stronger governance than the legacy approach we are replacing."
"The granularity for the audit log in FileCloud is extremely valuable."
"FileCloud is a solid, enterprise-grade solution for secure file sharing and collaboration, giving you the control of on-premises with the flexibility of cloud, which is a significant advantage."
"For instance, with 50 employees and 1,000 users, using two other services would lead to about $20 a month for each of the 1,050 users, totaling around a quarter of a million per year, in comparison, with FileCloud, we pay for only 50 licenses at about $20 each plus 1,000 guests, leading to an approximate total of $11,000 a year, representing a 95% reduction in licenses."
"FileCloud has been a very positive experience overall."
"My advice for others looking into using FileCloud is that you can use it for remote storage, as it is good and better than other providers."
"I decided to switch from OneDrive to FileCloud because FileCloud offers advantages over all the cloud products I have used, as it is more cost-effective, fast, and reliable, with unparalleled security compared to other alternatives, and it is very easy to use, allowing us to access our server and retrieve our files with ease."
"It's the only current GRC vendor with licensing rights for HITRUST 11.3 framework, and I've avoided expensive HITRUST licensing costs through a custom control framework."
"Veza has positively impacted my organization by improving access for our users, allowing us to check the user and perform auditing for our system or organization, and we are now able to implement least privilege practices, which has made our organization and system more secure."
 

Cons

"The price can be a little higher for smaller organizations, but for medium to large enterprises, the price is very cost-effective and affordable."
"Currently, FileCloud's compatibility for Linux implementation is limited to only Ubuntu or Red Hat Enterprise Server."
"When I mention the UI interface and organizing files, I find that it is not that great."
"I think the user interface could be more modern and intuitive, especially for non-technical users."
"The biggest area for improvement in FileCloud is the admin experience around troubleshooting and observability."
"I think FileCloud could be improved because we are using different types of databases and need database separation for different types of database providers such as MongoDB, MariaDB, and MySQL."
"I rate FileCloud a 7 out of 10 because, as a small marketing team needing to do simple tasks such as syncing Photoshop files or collaborating on a Word document, it feels excessive."
"The user interface could be more modern and intuitive, as other alternative options have a better-looking UI."
"Veza can be improved as it is currently not suitable for small projects due to its high cost, complex setup, and requirement for more integration with multiple systems."
"The support experience could be better."
