Gday, I have had quite reasonable success in a business context with this iPad app:
http://istorageapp.com/ (6 odd bucks US.) and an sftp server, Linux of course. A chrooted SFTP server is a trivial setup in Linux. We provde that via our DC "almost " cloud infra and it just works. It's a business oriented "private" dropbox style utility. Setting that up on a cheap AWS instance would be very cost effective I would think. But you could just keep it in house if being able to get to it from anywhere was not a need. We provide this service for a number of clients...very easy to maintain but will admit that the app did have it's "moments" earlier in the year. All looks AOK now though. On later iPad versions its very stable and we generally do not spend more than seconds a day in maintenance for around 200-220 users from various clients.
