Turn Azure Blob Storage Into A File Platform Your Team And Partners Can Actually Use

Azure Blob is great at holding files. Files.com is for working with them: partners sign in to exactly their folders, your team shares files with links, and everything anyone does through Files.com lands in one audit trail. It works on top of any Blob container, yours or a partner's. You don't even have to be an Azure customer.

Why Teams Put Files.com In Front Of Azure Blob

Azure Blob stores files cheaply and at huge scale. Files.com handles everyone who needs to work with those files — partners, apps, and auditors — without the files leaving your container.

Connect Any Blob Container, Yours Or A Partner's

The container can be yours, or it can belong to a partner, a vendor, or a customer. Pull files out of someone else's container, drop files into theirs, or do both at once. Either way, every move is controlled and logged from your Files.com site.

Reach A Private, Firewalled Container

Most tools can’t touch a locked-down Blob container. Files.com can. Either add Files.com’s published IP addresses to the container’s firewall allow-list, or run a small Files.com Agent inside your network that reaches the container from the inside, so the container never gets exposed publicly at all. On Azure, where storage is usually locked down, that’s often the deciding factor.

You Don't Even Need An Azure Account

Work on AWS, Google Cloud, or your own servers and still connect to a partner's Blob container. All Files.com needs is the storage account name and a key or SAS token from the container's owner. You never sign up for an Azure subscription of your own.

Add The Connection Methods Blob Doesn't Have

Blob's native endpoint speaks SFTP and nothing else. Files.com puts SFTP, FTPS, FTP, and WebDAV on the same container from one place: every way partners and apps actually connect. There are no proxy servers to build and no firewall haggling for each new partner.

Automate The File Busywork

Move, copy, sync, or delete files between Azure and anywhere else. Run it on a schedule, or when a file arrives, with simple if-this-then-that rules. There are no Power Automate flows to build and babysit.

Connect Azure Blob The Way That Fits Your Workload

Mount It Live

Show the container as a Files.com folder. Reads and writes pass straight through to Blob, with no copy and no sync to wait on. Your team works with the files through the browser, a desktop drive, mobile, or the command line. Use this when you want Files.com to be the place people go to reach the files.

Sync On A Schedule

Copy files between Files.com and a Blob container on a schedule, one direction or both. Good for backups, data pipelines, moving cold files to cheaper storage, and shuffling data between clouds.

Run It Automatically

Kick off a Files.com Automation when a file arrives, on a timer, or when a rule is met. The Blob container can be where files come from, where they go, or both. Files.com treats it like its own storage.

The Control And Visibility Blob Storage Leaves Out

Azure's controls are built for the storage: which apps, keys, and networks can reach the container. Files.com adds the people layer: which partner sees which folder, a log of everything anyone did through the platform, and the same company logins your team already uses.

Give People Access To Only Their Folders

Hand each person or partner the exact folders they need, and nothing else.

A Record Of Everything That Happens

Every upload, download, permission change, and workflow run through Files.com is logged and exportable: the evidence a SOC 2 review or a partner dispute asks for.

The Same Logins Your Company Already Uses

People sign in with Microsoft Entra ID or any SAML provider, backed by MFA, with group-based permissions driven from your directory. When someone leaves, you cut their access in one place.

Encryption That Happens On Its Own

Files.com can PGP-encrypt and decrypt files automatically as they move, so sensitive data is protected before it lands or gets handed off. Nobody has to remember to do it.

How Teams Use Azure Blob On Files.com

Take In Files From Partners

Give partners a Files.com SFTP or FTPS endpoint whose folder is your mounted Blob container. Their uploads land in Blob, get logged, and can kick off PGP decryption, renaming, or routing the moment each transfer completes. Your partners install nothing, and you write no custom code to glue it together.

Move Old Files Off Expensive Storage

Run a scheduled sync that moves big or rarely-touched files off pricey SharePoint and onto much cheaper Azure Blob. Files.com still serves them back when someone needs them, over SFTP or a share link.

Share Files And Edit Together

Send files out of Blob with share links you can password-protect and set to expire. Your own team can open and edit Blob documents right in Files.com, while the container stays the system of record.

Trade Files With A Partner On Azure

A partner drops data into their Blob container, or wants you to put files into theirs. Files.com syncs with that container on a schedule, pulling their files in or pushing yours out, and logs every transfer on your Files.com site.
