ZimaOS

Reader supplied reviews for ZimaOS Average rating 6.0 from 2 review(s) Version: 1.5.4 Rating: 8 Date: 2026-02-05 Votes: 0 Decent and certainly a step up from CasaOS, which was really lacking storage management options, the app store offers tons of choices of containers to fire up with minimal configuration, and the Win/Mac clients are a nice touch. It works, it's streamlined, but you will feel the quirks once you try to get it to do push things a little too far - it's no TrueNAS or Unraid here, and that's fine as long as you know what you're getting. Freemium model, limited in number of users and volumes, but still adequate for small home servers. Version: 1.5.3 Rating: 4 Date: 2026-01-07 Votes: 5 Still a work in progress. Has stylish GUI for the web portal. The Samba file shares work, but some of the containers in their app store dont. The Tailscale container used to work, now trying to open, just opens another portal page, so no Tailscale. The VMM container used to load, but now it just says "app not available". You cannot administer the server from the portal page (no restart/shutdown options). If you just need a set it and forget it file share server, then its OK, but the rest seems either incomplete, or simply missing things. There are better options.
