Jottacloud is expanding its Linux support with a proper desktop app, replacing the limited command-line tool previously available.
Beta testing enrollment is now open for developers and users specifying their distribution setup.
Jotta Group AS, which has been operating since 2008, offers file storage and synchronization services for Windows, Mac and mobile. Until now, Linux users have only had a basic tool at their disposal that lacked all the features of regular applications.
The company announced that it plans to release a full-fledged application for Linux, which will be just as secure and user-friendly as the other versions.
What programs and security does the service offer?
Jottacloud offers a free 5 gigabyte storage plan, as well as tiered options that go up to unlimited files. Data is stored on the company's computers in Norway and is protected with encryption both in transit and at rest.
How you can try the new app
Users who wish to participate in the testing phase can register by filling out a form. The company is requesting information about the Linux system and the work environment that each interested party uses, in order to ensure a variety of testers.
