Run Sandstorm on hardware that you control. Everything users do on a Sandstorm server stays safely within your institution. Enjoy free dynamic DNS and SSL.
Sandstorm provides simple web access to every user at your institution. When you approve Sandstorm, users can use any app safely within Sandstorm, and will file fewer support tickets.
Once you enable login via Google, GitHub, email, LDAP, or SAML every app automatically uses that login provider.
Academic departments need custom apps. As those apps get older, Sandstorm helps you sleep well at night. Sandstorm automatically protects against 95% of app security issues, according to our analysis.
Sandstorm makes all data private by default. Users can share access through a familiar interface.
When a user closes a browser tab to an app, Sandstorm waits a few minutes, then terminates the processes. When the user visits the app again, Sandstorm starts it automatically.
Your Sandstorm server stores all data for all apps and all the databases they use. When you take a backup of it, you have everything.
Sandstorm is open source software enjoyed by thousands of individuals at non-profits and companies every day.
