The official desktop syncing client for ownCloud, synchronizing files between an ownCloud server (including ownCloud Infinite Scale) and a local computer. It is a cross-platform C++/Qt application with binary packages for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Use cases

  • sync my ownCloud server files to my desktop
  • keep a local folder mirrored with ownCloud Infinite Scale
  • desktop client for my self-hosted ownCloud instance
  • automatically upload files to ownCloud from my computer
  • two-way file synchronization with an ownCloud server
  • access ownCloud files offline on Windows, Mac, or Linux

When to choose

  • you run an ownCloud or ownCloud Infinite Scale server and need desktop file sync
  • you want an official, actively maintained sync client with binaries for all major desktop OSes
  • you need selective sync and background synchronization of a cloud folder

When to avoid

  • you use Nextcloud instead of ownCloud (use the Nextcloud client)
  • you need a web-only or mobile-only client
  • you want a generic sync tool not tied to an ownCloud server
