Owncloud 2: private cloud server

Owncloud: Free Software, private cloud server developed by the KDE community. Current functions include file management, music storage, calendar, and contacts. Owncloud can run locally or on a server.

Owncloud 2 is the latest version:

* Supports music streams.
* The calendar and contacts can be effectively combined with the Thunderbird email client, Kontact, or Evolution;
* One-click File Sharing
* Supports WebDAV and plug-ins through file browsers such as Nautilus or doldolphin. Third-party applications are required for iOS and Android)

Currently, this tool is not fully functional and lacks encryption and desktop synchronization clients. The online text editor, task manager, encryption, and desktop synchronization client are under development. At the same time, version control and restoration functions are also under planning.

TIPS: You can also customize your applications.
