File sharing with external companies

Question

Hi all,
A customer would and need sharing files with external companies.
This customer don't want use cloud services (OneDrive for example) and this customer want have files on premises.

I would know if there is a Microsoft solutions to have a file sharing server on premise.

For example I have discovered "Work Folder" solutions but I have seen that you can't naccess to this folders using Browser..

Are there others ways to create file sharing server with external companies using Windows Server?

Thanks!

You can set up an FTP service. That was the way it was done before the cloud came into existence.

Use your favorite search engine to search for 'configure windows FTP server' and you will be presented with many articles and videos on how to do this.
