I think the multipart upload is a really badly needed feature. What else do you have in mind?

For the integration part I recently started to fear if there is a lack of partner management. If I read something like this:

If an integration partners development is too slow or they even abandon the integration that will get Storj a bad reputation. To me this looks like the partnerships and integrations needs to be more actively managed and eventually even pushed to keep up with the product.

And for getting the name out there. There is indeed much improvement possible. I just had a look at: [https://hypernetlabs.io/galileo/tutorials/#tutorials](https://hypernetlabs.io/galileo/tutorials/#tutorials) and [https://hypernetlabs.io/galileo/tutorials/tutorial-tardigrade/](https://hypernetlabs.io/galileo/tutorials/tutorial-tardigrade/).  
Naming alone is confusing. At one point it is named Storj, then it is Tardigrade. We see Tardigrade with Storj logo. Never do we see the Tardigrade logo. A more consistent approach is certainly missing. And of course much more could be done and should be done to get the name out there and make potential users aware of the solutions offered.
