In their own words
LucidLink
LucidLink streams files from cloud storage into a shared filespace, so collaborators can work with large files without downloading or syncing entire files. When an application opens a file, it streams only the data that application needs. The service mounts like a local drive and works with Adobe Creative Cloud, AutoCAD, Figma and Final Cut. LucidLink Connect can bring storage such as Google Drive, Dropbox, SharePoint and S3 into a unified filespace. Its iOS and Android apps support uploading, browsing, previewing and sharing. The company says files use end-to-end AES-256 encryption, with customers controlling keys under a zero-knowledge model. Security options include SAML 2.0 SSO, SCIM provisioning, folder permissions and real-time access enforcement; audit logs and snapshots support tracking and recovery. Starter costs $7.00 per billed member/month and is limited to 10 members and 1 TB. Business is listed at $3,227.00 per month, limited to 25 members and described as suitable for up to 10 TB. A 30-day trial is available.
Morro Data CloudNAS
