Expandrive

ExpanDrive is a distributed file system client for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows and Linux that facilitates mapping of local volume to many different types of cloud storage. When a server is mounted with ExpanDrive any program can read, write, and manage remote files (that is, files that only exist on the server) as if they were stored locally. This is different from most File Transfer Clients because it is integrated into all applications on the operating system. It also does not require a file to be downloaded to access portions of the content.

Built into Finder and Explorer

ExpanDrive adds cloud storage like Google Drive, Dropbox, Amazon S3, SFTP (SSH), Box, OneDrive and Sharepoint to Finder and Explorer. Don’t bother with an extra app just to move data around. ExpanDrive connects cloud storage to every application on your computer including Office 365, Photoshop, and VS Code.


Smart Offline Sync

Choose files for offline access and work without an internet connection. Synchronization to the cloud takes place automatically when you’re back online. Other files are accessed on-demand from the cloud, taking no disk space.

Integrated Search

ExpanDrive hooks into Spotlight Search on Mac and Windows file search. Quickly search your remote storage for whatever you’re looking for. The integrated storage browser has additional support for blazing-fast server side search.

Multi-user file locking

ExpanDrive now propagates lock files in Microsoft Office documents across the cloud. If a user is editing an Office document, other users will only be able to open that document read-only until the editing user closes it.

File Version Management

Easily access older versions of files on cloud storage backends that support versioning, including Box, Dropbox, S3, Google Drive, OneDrive and Sharepoint.

Connect to all major cloud storage providers, or your own server. With a single app you can connect to:

  • Dropbox
  • Google Drive and Google Team Drives 
  • Box 
  • OneDrive and OneDrive for Business 
  • Sharepoint
  • Nextcloud 
  • Wasabi
  • Backblaze B2
  • SFTP (SSH)/FTP, WebDAV
