I would put it in if there is a bullet proof way of ensuring a restore in case of a failure. We have been using it for months with only the occasional hiccups in a client here and there. Simple to set up in CentOS, sync's with all the PC's we need. If you backup the DB and conf files to the data directory then it will replicate them to your clients. If your server dies then just restore from anyone one of the clients.

Re: [SLUG] ownCloud alternatives
Hi all, been watching this thread with interest. I have a client that needs something exactly like this. What does it run on? Linux I suppose? Anyone have experience with backing up/restoring this in the event of a hardware meltdown? I would put it in if there is a bullet proof way of ensuring a restore in case of a failure.
