Seafile vs Streem: What are the differences?

Developers describe Seafile as "Open source cloud storage software with advanced features". A file syncing and collaboration platform for enterprise. It provides Dropbox like file syncing. It also comes with rich collaboration features, includes file preview, discussion, wiki. The goal is to help customers to build an unified and easy-to-use file management platform behind their firewalls. On the other hand, Streem is detailed as "Unlimited Cloud Storage For Your Media". Unlike other cloud storage tools, Streem takes up no space on your computer, but still gives you instant access to your files without any lag. All media on Streem is converted on-the-fly so you can access it seamlessly regardless of the device or bandwidth.

Seafile and Streem belong to "File Storage" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by Seafile are:

  • Cross Platform File Syncing
  • Mobile File Access
  • Seafile Drive client:a new nice way to work with your files

On the other hand, Streem provides the following key features:

  • Truly unlimited cloud storage for $20/month. We're able to do this with our de-duplication, compression, and estimation algorithms to figure out how much the average user will store and store only unique copies of files. Based on our data and analysis, with de-duplication and compression, $20/month is enough to cover the cost of an average users' data storage.
  • No space and no syncing required. We don't require users to keep copies of files on their device (unlike Dropbox, Google Drive, and other cloud sync tools). We store a single copy in the cloud and stream the file data down on-demand when it's accessed.
  • On-the-fly adaptive bitrate video streaming (Apple HLS). Our video streaming technology is able to dynamically fluctuate the quality of the video stream based on the user's available bandwidth. We also transcode videos on-the-fly, so there are no transcoding wait times and users are able to watch videos instantly after upload, on any device, without having to worry about formats, codecs, quality, resolution, or file size.

Seafile is an open source tool with 7.01K GitHub stars and 1.16K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Seafile's open source repository on GitHub.
