Every cloud drive can hold a file and hand you a link. What almost none of them do is treat that link as a thing worth managing. iCloudBox does: a share can be set to expire, put behind a password, or both, and the person who sent it can see what happened to it afterwards — opens, downloads, who and when.
A link you can still answer for.
That turns a share from something you send and forget into something you can actually answer questions about. Did the client open it. Is the link from March still live. Which of the five people it went to ever downloaded the thing. None of those are exotic questions, and the surprising part is how rarely a drive will answer them.
It runs on the web, on iOS and on Android, and the file browser is the same idea in three sizes: what is in here, how much room is left, and what you can do to a file without leaving the row it is on. The admin side is where storage, users and sales are read as one picture rather than three exports.
