New AeroFS Features
- yurisagalov 12y agoThe team will be here to answer any questions :)
- skrause 12y agoPlease stop spamming and allow people to delete accounts. I haven't used AeroFS at all since trying it out over a year ago, later sent a support email to have my account removed and never got a reply. The settings page doesn't seem to have an option to turn off marketing emails. I hope clicking the "unsubscribe" link in the mail did the job today. However, I would much rather like to delete my account and never be bothered again.
- yurisagalov 12y agoHey there, shoot me an email at yuri@aerofs.com and I'll make sure we've deleted your account. The unsubscribe link should do the trick for any of our newsletters.
- HorizonXP 12y agoHey Yuri, 2 questions: 1) For my personal/own company use, can I set up AeroFS on my FreeNAS server? I'd like to have files synced between it and my MBP. Helpful if you could point to any articles. 2) I'm overseeing a large datacentre deployment for a brand new office tower, and I'm thinking it may be worthwhile to offer AeroFS services to tenants in the building. I have a VMWare ESXi server running here. Is it possible to run the AeroFS central server as an appliance? We'd likely need to provision a separate SAN to provide appropriately redundant storage.
- HorizonXP 12y agoLooks like I answered my own question: https://www.aerofs.com/product/deployment/private-cloud/ https://www.aerofs.com/product/deployment/private-cloud/ Which means I can run it as a virtual appliance. Might make sense to just spool up an appliance for every tenant/customer, and then provision it that way. I'll take a look into this. Could be the best way to get it running on FreeNAS too.
- yurisagalov 12y ago1. I don't think we support running AeroFS _on_ a NAS, but you could have a team server point _to_ a NAS as long as the NAS is exposed as a file system 2. Yes, The AeroFS Private Cloud runs as a virtual appliance (we ship an OVA/OVF), and is compatible with VMWare ESXi. You could offer isolated AeroFS Private Cloud environments for each tenant, and then expose storage however you'd like to them.
- rdl 12y agoIt would be awesome if you could target something like a Synology or QNAP -- they're basically Atom or i3 boxes with good ram and cpu, running Linux, and an existing App market. Stuff like crashplan pro/e exists on it already.
- KaiserPro 12y agojust one thing, tangentially related: why is the "welcome to aerofs" image 5k x 1.5k pixels? surely that's a bit big no?
- yurisagalov 12y agoI wish I had a good reason for you, but it's fixed now!
- rdl 12y agoI've been a happy AeroFS user at a couple of companies now, and always recommend it to anyone with a group of people sharing files which are at all sensitive. Other systems like Dropbox are fine for photos or public content to share with people quickly (since it's pretty widely used), but within an organization, or whenever you have security needs (audit trail, meaningful encryption, firewalling, etc.), AeroFS is the easiest choice. (running your own fileservers is the alternative, but outside of an all-Microsoft world, that's actually pretty hard to do well today.)

- bkeroack 12y ago$10/user/month just for licensing seems steep, considering I have to pay for my own storage on top of it. Do you guys have any plans for OneDrive-like on-demand syncing? I have nearly 1TB of shared business data that users need access to, but I can't have each client pulling down the entire data set.
- homulilly 12y agoDoes AeroFS have any particular advantages over Bittorrent Sync? That's what I'm using right now and it seems more flexible.
