Nextcloud is a collaborative cloud-based file hosting and management solution that empowers and strengthens Organizations in their day-to-day operations and activities.

As a fully on-premises, or private cloud solution, Nextcloud Hub provides the benefits of online collaboration without the compliance and security risks.

As a central-hub for many mission critical activities, Organizations can take control of their operations and actions, document editing and publishing, custom workflows, exchange of information, and much, much more.

Further integrations with third-party apps, plugins, other cloud-providers, and external applications provide extended functionality to further empower day-to-day file and document management.


  • Create, edit, and publish documents collaboratively (including formats such as docx, xlsx)
  • Securely share documents internally, as well as to external users, clients, and customers
  • Send and receive email
  • Manage your calendar, contacts, media
  • Host secure video, audio calls

What it can do for you


Nextcloud provides a web interface, iOS app, Android app, and desktop client available for continuous file synchronization and active collaboration between users.

Documents can be collaborated on in real time with other users. Files and folders can be shared with read and/or edit privileges to specific users, email addresses, by link with optional password, expiration date, or note. Built in version control ensures mistakes can be undone and you have access to document history.

Workflows allow for task automation, including processes that can automate file conversions, document approvals, enforcement of retention polices, analytics which utilize 3rd party data, etc.

Nextcloud is extensible. With it's own app store, you're able to browse and install 3rd party applications, or build your own to extend its functionality.
