While I&#8217;ve never professed to being hip (although I<br \/>\nsuspect my American colleagues think THEY are), it is very exciting to be<br \/>\nleading a &#8222;hip&#8220; project. But, well, where was ownCloud when I was in high<br \/>\nschool.<\/p>\n<p>We have been in serious &#8222;fast and furious&#8220; mode &#8212; adding hip new features,<br \/>\nsolidifying the core code and building solid security. As we prepare for<br \/>\nnext month&#8217;s 2nd commercial launch, we are carefully crafting an<br \/>\nenterprise-ready product that gives IT managers flexibility and choice, and<br \/>\nour partners a tried and true revenue stream.<\/p>\n<p>So let me leave off with a few things the press have said lately about us:<\/p>\n<p>Businessweek: &#8222;There&#8217;s an awful lot of choice out there for people looking<br \/>\ninto file-syncing and -storage services. Folks used to  Google&#8217;s world will glom onto Drive, while Windows bigots &#8211; such as exist &#8211; will end up on SkyDrive. Then there are the &#8222;cool kids&#8220; on Dropbox or Box. But say for a moment that you&#8217;re not a &#8222;drive&#8220; or a &#8222;box&#8220; type. You&#8217;re a cloud hipster, and you need to store and sync files<br \/>\nin an unconventional way. What to do? Well, the hardcore types out there do have options-namely ownCloud and Cubby.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cmswire.com\/cms\/document-management\/owncloud-version-4-features-versioning-encryption-015818.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CMS Wire<\/a><br \/>\n&#8222;&#8230;while ownCloud offers business and  enterprise editions with paid support, the basic version is free, leaving much of the profit potential in the hands of third-party developers. But ownCloud is definitely one of the &#8222;smart kids&#8220;, and the future looks pretty good.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.readwriteweb.com\/cloud\/2012\/05\/owncloud-growing-into-its-own-with-versioning-apis-and-collaboration.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ReadWriteWeb<\/a><br \/>\n&#8222;The ownCloud project is adding  features fast and furiously. The open-source file synchronization and  sharing project announced the Milestone 4 release earlier this week, taking ownCloud in an interesting direction for corporate users. Forget Dropbox killer &#8211; ownCloud could be something even better, someday.&#8220;<\/p>\n<p>Thanks guys, we&#8217;ll keep it coming<br \/>\n<!--:--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><!--:en-->Markus about beeing hip.<!--:--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":78665,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36766","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36766","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36766"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36766\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78665"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36766"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36766"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/owncloud.com\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36766"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
