Although there are many ready-made file sharing management platforms, it is still difficult to find software for some relatively niche needs. For example, the need for file sharing within a team. Creating a folder for each user, and then you can browse (read-only) everyone's folders, and only you can read and write your own folders. This function can also be achieved with FTP, but it is more troublesome to operate. This case, FileGator can solve the problem well.
