Seafile Client, alternative Linux à OneDrive
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Seafile Client is a strong replacement for OneDrive if you are willing to self-host or pay for managed Seafile services. It handles core syncing, version history, and selective sync effectively across Linux, Windows, and macOS. Unlike OneDrive, it does not provide a free, hosted cloud service out of the box. You need a Seafile server to connect to. For users who want full control over their data and are comfortable setting up infrastructure, Seafile offers superior privacy and open-source transparency. If you just want a simple, free, hosted sync service with no setup, OneDrive remains easier, but Seafile is the better long-term choice for privacy-focused users.

Ce qui change
- Requires a Seafile server (self-hosted or paid) instead of a free hosted service
- No direct integration with Microsoft 365 or Office apps
- Sharing links are generated by the Seafile server, not Microsoft infrastructure
- Client-side encryption is optional and managed differently than OneDrive's default encryption
Ouvrir vos fichiers OneDrive
Seafile does not convert files; it syncs them as-is. Any file you download from OneDrive (documents, images, videos) can be uploaded to Seafile and opened with standard Linux applications. There is no format incompatibility. However, you cannot sync directly from OneDrive to Seafile without first downloading the files locally. If you have specific OneDrive-only formats or integrations, those will not function in Seafile.
