periscope data is great for sql visualizations. Way faster than any in house open source database plus priced affordably for any company larger than 10 people.

Enterprise sales! Enterprise is a completely different beast than consumer. Enterprise sales are 60% trust, 20% pricing, and 10% product. The language, practices and culture necessary to do well at selling to large enterprises and all of the differences in the underlying company are so different than consumer products. Enterprise is very misunderstood, even by many VCs!
Which begs the question: what are the remaining 10%?
See, these are exactly the kind of questions that will not get you ay enterprise sales ;)

In 2009 I was running IT for a medium-sized digital agency. I contacted both Box and Dropbox to inquire about paying them a bunch of money if they could give us some more features such oauth/saml auth, and better logging/auditing of our user activity. Box sales was super responsive, and even got me on the phone to chat with their engineering team about our needs. Dropbox was completely unresponsive.
Did you ever try anything like https://owncloud.org/ ? I came across it last night browsing random docker containers.
I wouldn't recommend it to replace Dropbox. There are superior open source tools that are specialized for file sync.

Can you recommend any? And something I want to investigate soon.

#35Count me as another sad user...I started using it towards the end of writing my MS thesis, and was bummed to not know of it sooner. The sharing was definitely a good feature, but the overall experience felt thought out, and was enjoyable!

#36I was waiting for their Linux client.. I liked the charts and the feature to export them, anyway it was an awesome app with a great UX, really sad to see that go.

This didn't exist in 2009.
