Wuala recommends that the administrator for your Business storage follows all instructions to create and manage your Company on Wuala.

Personal and Business Wuala Storage

All Wuala Business users must have personal Wuala storage, including the administrator. Please note that Wuala personal storage is never confused with your Wuala Business storage since they remain separate (see Get Familiar with the Wuala Interface). Additionally, all Wuala users receive 5GB of free secure cloud storage so your team members will experience enhanced data collaboration both at work and at home.

Existing Wuala Users: Go directly to Configure Your Wuala Business Storage to get started.

New Wuala Users: Follow the instructions below to install the Wuala application on your computer and configure Wuala personal storage.

Important info: Coworkers that already have Wuala personal storage should provide the Business storage administrator with their Wuala contact names. Please note that the administrator can create new Wuala personal storage for coworkers who have yet to join.
