What alternative can be chosen instead of FTP for data exchange?

Question

Nginx

Now employees of the company in order to share their data (read-only) send an ftp link. For example, ftp://domain.com. The recipient of the link follows it, enters a username and password, and views the data. Sometimes the user and password are included in the ftp link itself. For example, ftp://user:[email protected]
Now we want to move from FTP to Web. Is there any free lightweight solution, based on Nginx or Apache for example, to quickly share an external resource and send a link to the recipient? For example, to have a mini-admin panel where you can add an external resource, specify a data folder, user, password.
To, for example, instead of ftp://domain.com send people domain.com<identifier>. Or somehow in this spirit.
Thank you!

Owncloud/Nextcloud

Answer 2

Does everyone need different passwords?
If there is one, or say 10 pieces, then the usual http with basic authorization will do.
If it's more complicated - google any file hosting web engine (I didn't use it myself, so I won't tell you), but something like:
https://pydio.com/
https://www.softaculous.com/apps/files
https:// sourceforge.net/projects/phpofs/

Answer 3

Google drive (free) for small companies and Gsuite (from 5 bucks per month per person) - a more functional product for large companies. You can set permissions for reading, writing, etc. You can edit docks online at the same time. You can create all sorts of forms, automate workflow. This is a whole new level of bureaucracy!
