Pydio Reviews

Files sync quickly and easily from our ERP, and it has an outstanding file organization system.

The user interface is a little dated and could be more modern.

We use it to sync files from our Banner ERP, like automated job outputs. It makes it easy for end-users to access these files.

I like best the ease of use and vast array of different features. Being open source makes it free and there's a great support system. Mobile app also available.

I don't dislike anything about the system as of yet.

Use the mobile and desktop application for simple backups

Providing customers with a powerful cloud storage solution that we control entirely

We needed a File explorer with additional functionality. Pydio was the perfect fit

From the end-user perspective, the product looks polished and user-friendly.

From the admin perspective, the product is brittle and hard to configure.

- UI text for English was written by a non-native speaker, so it often reads strangely or doesn't make sense to end-users. It looks sloppy if the product is being used in a professional setting.

- Even the smallest misconfiguration can take down the entire system, and the error messages that it produces don't provide enough detail about the root cause.

- Often you have to dig into the source code to diagnose the issue yourself.

Don't use Pydio 8 unless you are a PHP developer or have one on your team. The product is not stable enough for it to be easy for you to administer without getting your hands dirty in the code.

Pydio Cells -- their newest product offering -- looks simpler and promising, but it's not yet proven and doesn't have enough features yet. It's also written in a completely different language -- Go.

Trying to provide a cloud-based file storage solution similar to DropBox that runs on our own premise/infrastructure.
