Nextcloud
Self-hosted productivity platform for files, calendar and collaboration — a European alternative to Google Workspace.
About
Nextcloud is an open-source, self-hostable productivity platform developed in Germany, covering files (sync and share), calendar, contacts, video calls, collaborative document editing, and 200+ apps through its app store. It is deployed by thousands of organisations across Europe including universities, government agencies, and enterprises as a replacement for Google Workspace and Dropbox. Because Nextcloud is entirely self-hosted, all data remains on infrastructure you control — a Hetzner VPS, an on-premise server, or your own data centre. The Community Edition is free under AGPL; Nextcloud Enterprise adds support, compliance features, and performance optimisations. Nextcloud is the most widely deployed self-hosted collaboration platform in Europe.
