Fluxiom Review

This week I had the great chance to take a deeper look into Fluxiom, I’ve been waiting to try this web application out for quite a while now and I must say I was totally impressed when I got my hands on this masterpiece of AJAX.

What is Fluxiom? Fluxiom makes it easy to organize and share your digital assets within your company, your colleagues and friends. Manage any kind of file like corporate media assets, marketing materials, product folders, contracts, images, text documents, logos or artwork – you name it.

Getting Started

Obviously the first thing that has to be done with your Fluxiom account is starting to upload all sorts of media you have. Fluxiom makes it very easy to upload your files, there’s no need for an external application and it works with all browsers.

Furthermore, unlike other sites where you just have the upload button Fluxiom makes it easy to track the progress of your upload, it has a nice little animated progress bar displaying how much has been uploaded and at what speed its uploading.

    I don’t think you touched on how expensive Fluxiom is. The pricing scheme is really out there. But this might be necessary for the small firms that live by products such as Basecamp. For the one-man show, money is better spent on a cheap server for file hosting and maybe loaded up with some Active Collab.

    Paul, that’s something I did miss out on. However, I don’t think 9 € a month is going to hurt anyone!
