Anyone here using Owncloud?

Just wondering if anyone has used this open source cloud storage in their organisation?
https://owncloud.com/

Just after feedback for install, ease of use etc.
I assume it can be both internal and external facing, so that clients can also download and upload files?

Thank you for the comments.
Is there actually any functional difference between the community version and the paid enterprise version?
It seems to be mainly support and the mobile apps that it adds.
All we want is something that staff can add files to so that external clients can pick them up through a shared link or email - like you can with dropbox.
No syncing required.
Occasionally maybe for clients to add files too.
Would be helpful to restrict access to files to specific internal users though.

Currently we have to open up access to Dropbox and various other file sharing sites as required to specific staff which is a bit of a pain.
Looked at ftp but feel that is a bit messy for the client as often ftp access is blocked on networks (we do for instance!).
