It's nice that there's a service coming out that's built everything in so I don't have to rely on multiple pieces of software (and multiple support departments) to make it happen - and for IT managers that makes life easy.

Ken from InfraScale here. We'll have OSX desktop shortly - and all the major functions work right in the browser too btw.

Check out the mobile apps too. The key thing here is the end-to-end encryption. It just blows me away that Box doesn't offer encryption by default to all their users. According to their website, they are only giving AES encryption of data "at rest" to Enterprise customers. Crazy! How do they get away with that?

Here's a 60 second clip that explains why FileLocker's launch is important: https://vimeo.com/53352861

This is not mobile friendly at all... Their iOS solution is an an extremely limited HTML5 web app with no way to upload files! They tout collaboration but without a two way flow there is no collaboration!

I just asked a FileLocker chat agent about this. He said that a single user gets 25GB of storage with a free account.

@sbuckland We release software every two weeks AND we have a feature request page where users can submit and vote on new features! We've practically crowd-sourced our roadmap! :)

Hi @sbuckland - as GoldBytes said, native apps are coming shortly (waiting on approval) - also, please go and add the exact features you want to see to the roadmap. We're crowdsourcing our roadmap and will build what people vote on - which is pretty cool

I was very excited to read a 25gb secure service

I feel very let down its on 5gb per user

It almost feels like a bait a switch to get free press
