Egnyte

Egnyte alternative for business file sharing

Egnyte is an enterprise content governance platform with hybrid cloud storage, ransomware detection, and compliance certifications across SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and CMMC. It is built for regulated industries managing sensitive internal content at scale. But every plan is priced per user with minimums that push even small teams to $60 or more per month, the setup requires IT involvement, and the product is designed for governance workflows rather than simple branded file sharing. Here is what small businesses, agencies, and studios use instead.

Frequently asked questions

Sharebrand is a white-label file sharing platform for businesses. Files are delivered through your own custom domain with your logo on every link. Recipients never see Sharebrand's name. Unlike Egnyte, which is an enterprise content governance platform priced per user, Sharebrand is built for teams that need straightforward branded file sharing at a flat monthly rate.

Yes, Egnyte supports a custom access URL so that share links and workspace access can run on a domain you own rather than your-company.egnyte.com. Setting it up requires downloading a CSR file, purchasing an SSL certificate from a certificate authority, uploading the certificate chain, and managing renewals yourself. It is an IT administration task. Sharebrand's custom domain setup is self-serve and takes minutes with no SSL certificate work on your side.

Egnyte charges per user per month with minimum user counts per plan tier. The Team plan is $10 per user with a 3-user minimum, putting the floor at $30 per month at annual rates. The Business plan is $20 per user with a 3-user minimum, putting the floor at $60 per month. A five-person team on the Business plan costs $100 per month. Annual billing is required for these rates. Sharebrand Starter covers five team seats at $29 per month flat.

No. Egnyte offers custom branding — logo, colour scheme, and custom URL — but it is not a white-label product. The platform retains its own structure, interface, and identity. Sharebrand is fully white-label: recipients download files from your domain in an experience that carries only your branding, with no Sharebrand name or identity visible anywhere.

No. Egnyte has no feature for charging recipients before they download files. Sharebrand includes a built-in payment gate on every plan. You set a price and the recipient pays before downloading.

Egnyte is designed for mid-to-large enterprises in regulated industries: architecture and construction firms managing BIM files, life sciences companies managing clinical documentation, financial services firms with compliance requirements, and organisations that need hybrid cloud and on-premises storage with audit trails and governance controls. It is a serious enterprise platform. For small businesses, agencies, freelancers, and studios that need file sharing without the compliance overhead, it is more platform than the use case requires.

Yes. All Sharebrand plans include a 14-day free trial with full Pro access. No credit card required. You can set up your custom domain, add your branding, and share your first branded file link before paying anything.
