Interserver provides

shared, vps and dedicated hosting powered by Pydio

Pydio, which stands for ‘Put Your Data in Orbit’ is a system that allows you to essentially set up your own cloud storage system. Once set up, you can save any type of files or other data to your web hosting server, and then access them anywhere with a web connection. In addition to make it convenient to access your files, it also adds additional protections. If your personal hard drive fails, for example, all your data is safe. If you get a virus or hacked, your files are still safe.

Of all the file storage and sharing systems, this is one of the most advanced. It can be used just to store and access your own files (though it would not be the best option) or you can set it up for use by large numbers of people. This system also has a very nice way to make links for accessing specific files or folders for all users. Finally, there are options to allow anyone to download or edit files without restrictions, which can be important for pushing out public information. Overall, this is a really well- made and maintained file storage and sharing system for many people.

Star Rating:

Pydio Pros

Secure
You can set up strong security with password protections to ensure your data is protected.
Scalable
This is a great option for people who want to provide access to lots of people.
Customizable
You can do a lot of customization on this platform compared to most others, and they even let you build your own plugins for added functionality.

Pydio Cons

Cost
This is a premium file management system, and it comes with an annual price based on number of users and other factors.
Large Customer
This system is really just made for larger customers including businesses, government institutions, and others. Personal users will want to choose an option that is less expensive (or even free).

Pydio Review

Initial Setup
For such an advanced file storage system, it is surprisingly easy to get up and running. To install it on your existing InterServer hosting account, simply use the one-click installation script that is provided to all customers. This will get everything up and ready to go in just a few seconds. Once installed, you will need to go through each of the setting, create folders, establish permissions, and do other basic setup. Depending on how many different folders, user groups, and other settings need to be configured, this can take some time to complete, but it shouldn’t be difficult.
Plugins
This is one of the big areas that helps to set Pydio apart from other file storage systems. Their plugin system is quite advanced, and really easy to use. They have even set it up so people can create custom plugins to add in functionality. Most other file storage systems either have no plugin options at all, or else they are very limited. Having the option to add in good quality plugins can really help take this system to the next level.
Themes
You can change some things about the layout and design of the user facing screens, but not too much. They don’t have themes or templates like you would see with many other online systems, but that is because they aren’t really needed. You can change folder options for organization, which is more important anyway.
Customization
There are a lot of customization options available with this system. Most people won’t need to make many adjustments beyond permissions and folder organization, but that can be done quickly and easily. The plugins option with Pydio adds in a lot of options for functionality and customization as well.
Cost of Running
Pricing is broken down into either enterprise or open source options, and then either starter pack or standard pack, depending on how many users you have and other factors. The prices start at 349 Euro per year, plus some optional additional charges based on what type of services you need. These prices include different levels of support from their technical staff. For very large companies or organizations, they will provide a custom quote for pricing. The other costs will be for your web hosting server. The total price for hosting will depend largely on how many files you need to store, and how large they are.
Other Programs like it

While Pydio is a great option for many people, it certainly isn’t for everyone. If you want to try another file storage and sharing solution, the following platforms are all available with one-click installation for anyone using InterServer hosting:

Final Thoughts

Pydio is one of the most advanced, and feature rich file storage and sharing systems available. It can really help make it easier to keep your files on a web server, share them with who you choose, and protect them from those you don’t want to have access. It isn’t ideal for individuals or small groups, however, due to the costs associated with running it.
