A sovereign Microsoft 365 alternative: Nextcloud and IONOS join forces - Nextcloud
-
The Hetzner Storage Share lacks a lot of features that Nextcloud IONOS have. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think Hetzner has an office suite for Nextcloud?
wrote last edited by [email protected]I use storage share and I havent found it lacking in anything. You can install an onlyoffice app to get office. Some people complain about it for various reasons, and apparently it can be unstable though
Another thing I expected not to work was the face recognition app but it worked perfectly

Kinda sounds awful honestly.
I do use nextcloud for my small team. It's the best of the selfhosted file sync platforms.
That said, it's obscenely over engineered.
Who ever wanted a file sync platform that also does calendaring and contacts?

Most O365 & exchange users? If you just want file sync, this isn't for you. If you want a collaborative (online) office suite that can also sync files, it is. It's meant to be able to replace the whole O365 stack, which includes Outlook.
You can also just not use that part, or any part you don't need. This is basic NC functionality that has been there for a very long time, so why shouldn't it be part of the package?

I'm wondering what will happen to openXchange which ionos is using currently and is afaik also holding parts of. It does exactly the same.

It's an alternative, but IONOS honestly fucking sucks as well, so I'm feeling pretty ambivalent about this.

I might be wrong, but it sounds like hosted nextcloud, not a completely new platform.

you can delete the calendaring and contacts apps

No, you have to complain about them. It's the law.

Nextcloud is so slow and brittle, I can’t imagine scaling

Nextcloud isn't a 365 competitor?
It's filesync with contacts and calendar.
Even once you build in documents and spreadsheets, 365 at least has separate applications for that - its not a single overblown behemoth.

Well if I uninstaller them what would i complain about?

You're in a thread about it being used as one, so that argument is worthless.

Sure that's why I drive my 4wd anywhere i want to go - i don't want or need 4wd but I can just not use that functionality.
Sorry what office suite is basic NC functionality that has been there for a long time?

I use Nextcloud for contacts, calendars, files, bookmarks, passwords, to do lists, Kanban boards, and recipies. You absolutely can turn nextcloud into a 365 competitor if that's your jam

Pretty much every car today IS AWD - a better version of plain old 4WD. So even your analogy doesn't work.

Oh please. AWD is not "better" 4WD. 2 different things for completely different purposes.

Those are add-ons.
Besides which, o365 is not a single self hosted php behemoth.
I'm loathe to extoll the virtues of 365. I don't use it and never will.
