Filen vs SnapRAID

Filen

File Sharing

Filen is a secure, end-to-end encrypted file storage and sharing service. It allows users to store files privately in the cloud and share them securely with other Filen users or send one-time links. Key features include client-side encryption, ability to set expiration dates on shared files, file versioning and decentralized storage.

SnapRAID

Backup & Sync

SnapRAID is an open-source backup program for disk arrays. It protects data on hard disk drives by generating parity information that allows recovery from up to six disk failures. It does not create copies of files, but relies on regular block-level snapshots to provide history.
