Our cloud-based autobuild system ensures up-to-date, immediate software integration and delivery. Plus, our engineers are on call to help you through every stage of your product’s lifetime, including full integration support.
Our full implementation package comes with a built-to-spec, ready-to-run kernel module, all the file system and benchmarking tools you need, intensive device testing, our patented fail-safe technology, and full-service support.
Errors can cause data loss—or worse—damage device hardware. Tuxera file systems go beyond other alternatives to bring you volume check and repair tools to ensure file system consistency, fix corrupted volumes, and recover lost files.
All the software we build goes through extensive testing. We have our own state-of-the-art device testing lab where we test for interoperability, reliability, functionality, and performance.
Everything’s stored safe and sound. With Tuxera’s proprietary fail-safe technology, videos, pictures, and other files are saved during unexpected power losses or if the external storage is suddenly removed.
