And much much more

Although it was initially designed as a document-sharing and collaboration platform our clients are using Cells in a variety of different ways that you might find helpful.

File Transfer - Most of our clients tell us they no longer use file transfer solutions like WeTransfer or Dropbox and just rely on Pydio.

Document Management - Cells provides a winning combination of advanced document management features and powerful sharing and collaboration capabilities. Our clients tell us they love the fact they don’t have to operate (and pay for) two separate platforms.

Virtual Data Room - Virtual data rooms are still a functionality many organizations need to share and collaborate on sensitive documents.  like financials and M&A. Cells can also double as your data room solution.

Document Portal - Maybe it’s just fancy marketing-speak for a sharing and collaboration tool, but several of our clients tell us they use Cells as their document portal.

Digital Asset Management - Cells can manage more than just files; it is also a great tool for storing, managing, cataloging and sharing a wide range of files. So for several of our clients, Cells plays the role of a DAM solution.

Knowledge Management - If you can’t find the knowledge your organization creates, then you can’t leverage it. Clients tell us that they take advantage of Cells’ metadata, tagging, automation and advanced search to look after their knowledge management needs.
