Release/file sharing service

At my company we use FTP to share releases and e-mail to notify customers of the availability.

I'm looking for a service offering:

• Easily upload of a file

• Users need to sign in to download

• and keep a record of which user have downloaded what

• proper UI

Any ideas?

What you're after is an Binary repository manager

Quoting from Wikipedia with added links:


Notable Universal package managers include:[6]

• Apache Archiva

• Jfrog's Artifactory

• Inedo's ProGet

• Sonatype Nexus

I know for sure Nexus and Artifactory match your requirements (even if proper UI is a bit subjective and you mileage may vary).
