ExaVault

ExaVault is the modern alternative to legacy file servers for organizations that aren't moving to SaaS today. Many businesses still rely on aging SFTP/FTP infrastructure, stitched-together servers, or brittle custom solutions. The result is wasted IT resources, compliance risks, and slower business operations. ExaVault is a self-managed file transfer appliance designed for on-premises, private cloud, or virtualized environments. Built on SaaS-grade technology, it delivers modern security, automation, and usability while running entirely under your control.
