Sounds awesome for your use case!

…but this sounds so much like the legendary Dropbox release thread’s ”just use FTP, SVN, etc” that it made me smile :)



Well no, dropbox is aimed at non-technical oriented users. Sure, they have "enterprise" features for admins now but that's not how it started and in the end the product is vastly consumed by non technical users.


I hear you, but the difference is that Dropbox is actually good and reasonably priced. Splunk is horrible to use and costs 1,000x what it should, and they are super aggressive about harassing you about usage caps and threatening you constantly with huge price hikes. Dropbox has barely raised price over the years (until pretty recently at least) and has been rock solid and amazing.
