Moreover, being open-source and self-hosted in nature means I can access my data anytime from anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Nextcloud?

Despite boasting impressive features, the platform is occasionally underperforming. It falls short in terms of third-party integrations and cloud tools compared to its competitors in the market. I faced sluggish file uploads at times and this was compounded by occasional glitches and bugs. Collaboration options are generally limited, leaving users largely on their own. Setting up and maintaining servers may prove challenging for those without sufficient technical knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It performs gradually beneath solid loads and has specialized server needs, requiring specialized aptitude for setup and support.

What problems is Nextcloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

To encourage communication, numerous records that once lived on employees' PCs have been centralized on a record server. Sharing records with those who don't have NextCloud accounts is additionally helpful for me. Ready to get to our information on our server from any place and on any gadget because of how straightforward it is to set up and utilize. Past forms of records are naturally put away, making it less complex to reestablish misplaced or erased records. Clients may get to records and work together in genuine time on them from any area and on any gadget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
