In their own words
ObjectiveFS
ObjectiveFS is a shared distributed POSIX file system for persistent storage across cloud instances, laptops, containers, and office servers. It runs on Linux and macOS and can be self-hosted. The software runs on customer machines and connects directly to object stores through the S3 API, without storage clusters or metadata servers. Multiple machines can read and write the same filesystem, with updates visible across them. Supported targets include Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, IBM Cloud Object Storage, Oracle Cloud, DigitalOcean Spaces, Scaleway, Wasabi, Ceph, MinIO, NetApp StorageGRID, Hitachi Content Platform, and S3-compatible stores. Data is encrypted locally with a customer-known key and remains encrypted in transit and at rest; checksums verify integrity. Automatic and checkpoint snapshots can be mounted read-only. Personal costs $99 a month and includes 3 instances, up to 50 instances, 5TB storage, and unlimited filesystems. A 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Object-store charges are billed separately. ObjectiveFS does not run natively on Windows, though a Linux machine can export it through NFS or Samba.
Triofox
Triofox provides VPN-free access to files on existing on-premises or cloud storage. It supports mapped drives and file locking to preserve familiar file-server workflows, plus offline access when a connection is unavailable. The service can connect to file servers, Amazon S3, and Azure, and names Active Directory, Azure AD, and Okta as single sign-on providers. Triofox Classic is self-hosted on Windows Server, while Triofox.ai is cloud-hosted and requires no server installation. Listed editions provide desktop drive mapping for Windows and Mac, iOS and Android access, and a web-based file manager. Office Edition costs $11 a month, billed up front annually; Business Edition costs $15 a month and Enterprise Edition costs $22 a month on the same annual billing basis. Business adds ransomware protection, audit trace, SAML integration, secure data rooms, retention policy, and device approval. Enterprise lists a HIPAA/GDPR Compliance Center. Standard Support is included with every edition, while Premium Support is included with Enterprise and optional for Office and Business. A 30-day trial is listed; there is no free plan.
