Murena Cloud

We felt that if we stopped at the operating system, we were leaving many users without options for their emails and cloud storage, but to use proprietary solutions like Google Docs or Microsoft Office 365. So our efforts to bring people to a more privacy-friendly environment would be in vain. Here is where Murena cloud comes in.

Murena cloud is the new name of ecloud, with better services and an improved user experience.

It is your personal email account, your agenda and contacts, your drive on the cloud and your online office suite, all combined in one single service, simple to use. Murena cloud is powered by proven open-source software like NextCloud and OnlyOffice.

Last but not least, we have great features to keep your email address private like “Hide My Email”.

Murena cloud is built on the same privacy by design principles as /e/OS. We don’t scan your data, we don’t log your app usage, we don’t sell your data, we don’t use ads in our online services.

Murena cloud is seamlessly integrated with /e/OS so you can synchronize easily data from your cloud to your phone.

And while Murena cloud has been developed as an extension of /e/OS, this online suite can also be used without /e/OS, directly from your computer or another smartphone.

What will you find in Murena Cloud?

Your personal @murena.io email

With Murena cloud, you have your own personal email ID ending in @murena.io. We do not scan your emails or include ads anywhere.

Your murena.io email account is accessible directly in Murena smartphones, or via any email client, like Thunderbird, or from your web browser at https://murena.io

Every account comes with 1 GB of free storage space! We also have paid plans, from 20GB to 2TB if you need more storage space.

Your calendar and contacts

Your calendar enables you to create separate personal and professional schedules and set up meetings with different options. You can invite contacts, plan recurring events, share your calendar and more.

Saving your contacts on Murena Cloud enables you to synchronize them across all your devices.

Your online drive in the cloud

Murena Cloud comes with a secured storage to access your pictures and videos, sync and backup files from your phone or conveniently share with anyone you want.

Your files are seamlessly synced and always available to you, on-the-go with your Murena smartphone or through the browser of your choice.

Your online office suite

Murena Cloud is also a powerful suite of online tools to create, edit and share documents, spreadsheets and even presentation slides.

Powered by OnlyOffice, it is compatible with MS Office formats and is a great alternative to Google Docs or Office 365.

Hide my email

“Hide My Email” is another feature that you can benefit from using murena.io. This is a mail alias, but used only to receive mails without disclosing your real email address. Briefly speaking, it is a random address added to a user.

As it is an alias, all mails sent to this mail alias will also get into the mailbox of a user.

The address can be found in this page of murena.io settings. Currently, there is one alias available, but in the future we plan to get more and users will be able to manage their aliases (to delete and renew them).

To know how to set up a Hide My Email settings, please read our documentation, or watch the the video on YouTube or Vimeo.
