Do you want a high quality Nextcloud service with GDPR? NextFiles is a high quality , hight privacy german based cloud provider, a fast and secure Nextcloud service in a German data center with ISO 27001 certification.
Nextcloud is a fork of Owncloud, but it has grown so rapidly over the last year that many consider it the successor to Owncloud despite the fact that Owncloud is still very much up and running. If you set up your own Nextcloud instance, either self-hosted or on your personal web space (see later), then you have full access to all Nextcloud’s features. We list some popular core features below, but you can choose from over a hundred apps which hugely expand Nextcloud’s functionally. If you take the easy route and allow a Nextcloud partner to set up a fully-hosted cloud for you, then it controls which features are available to your account.
NextCloud: A Dropbox alternative: Introduced by previous developers of ownCloud, NextCloud remains to be one of the, if not the most popular open source cloud storage software. Being open source, anyone can install NextCloud for free. The only service the user will pay for (and at a very small amount at that) is the private server in which they host it on. Now it’s apparent what some may already be thinking – “Google Drive is free to use as well”. This is true, yet both Dropbox and Google Drive still have data limits or are not entirely “private”. This is the advantage of NextCloud being a self-hosted cloud storage platform.
The biggest pull, of course, is that Nextcloud provides you with total control over how and where your files are stored. This is a big privacy win, although the fact that end-to-end encryption remains at the “trial” stage does introduce privacy concerns when using third-party (hosted) storage space. We get the strong impression that e2ee is in reality considered fairly robust even at this stage, but until a stable version is released, it is not possible to recommend for sensitive data. That said, encrypting the entire instance with something like EcnFS should provide more than enough security for most users. Setting up a fully hosted Nextcloud account is so easy that your mother could do it, and is certainly a privacy improvement over using a big name cloud service. It does, though, miss out on the real privacy benefits of running your own Nextcloud instance as it requires trusting a third-party provider to manage it for you.
Nextcloud gives you access to all your files wherever you are and whatever device you use. The easy web interface allows you to share files with other users on your server, to create and send password protected public links, to let others upload files to your cloud and to get notifications on your phone and desktop when a user on another cloud server shares files directly with you. And you can do all these things from the desktop or mobile clients, too. Nextcloud clients for Android, iOS and desktop systems allow you to sync and share files, in a fully secure way through an encrypted connection. The mobile clients feature automatic upload of pictures and videos you take and can synchronize select files and folders. The clients can handle multiple accounts, show all activity happening on your server and notify you of new events such as the availability of new shares.
