ownCloud 7- Faster Performance, Easier to Use

With the release of ownCloud 7 just a little more than a week away, I thought I’d discuss just how much faster and easier it is. Last week, we discussed sharing, and more sharing.

We dug deep under the covers to get ownCloud loading significantly faster and even changing the way storage is managed to make syncing significantly more responsive.

We’ve also made ownCloud easier to use by adding mobile browser support, file sorting, password strength indicator and an updated activity app.

A meaningful compliance tool, not just a convenience feature.
