Designed to be easy to use

An efficient, easy to use interface is one of the main things that sets Nextcloud apart from the competition. Design is about more than being pretty. The goal is to allow users to get work done with the least amount of effort, making it obvious how to accomplish tasks and reducing the number of steps needed to do so.

Good design can be seen in the entire user interface and each release makes steps forward.

Mobile and desktop clients

Nextcloud Files clients for Android, iOS and desktop systems allow users to sync and share files, in a fully secure way through an encrypted connection. The mobile clients feature automatic upload of pictures and videos users take and they can synchronize selected files and folders. The clients can handle multiple accounts, show all activity happening on the server and notify users of new events such as the availability of new shares.

Rich Workspaces

With Workspaces you can bring context to your folders, adding notes and even todo lists and links to files on top. This is great to coordinate with your team, making sure everyone knows what a particular folder is for, or to track important tasks in a prominent location.

Integrated

Access data from FTP, Windows Network Drive, SharePoint, NFS and Object storage.
Simple configuration and integration.

Powerful Search

Nextcloud includes a powerful full-text search engine so you can easily find your files.

Secure Storage

Powerful encryption capabilities and a built-in rule-based File Access Control.
Complemented by strong password policies, brute-force protection, ransomware protection and more.

Secure File Exchange

Nextcloud Files enables hospitals, banks, notaries and government agencies to securely send files to and receive files from customers, patients, clients or partners.

The easy web and mobile interfaces of Nextcloud Files allow users to share files with other users on the server, to create and send password-protected public links, to let others upload files to the private cloud and to get notifications on phone and desktop when a user on another cloud server shares files.

Seamless Collaboration

The core strength of Nextcloud is its ability to enhance team productivity on the go with an easy user interface on mobile, web and desktop and powerful integrated document collaboration and communication capabilities.

Real-time notifications of shares or comments on mobile devices, built-in collaborative editing of Microsoft Office compatible files, seamless transition to chat and audio/video calls and a wide variety of productivity tools to handle mail, appointments, tasks and more are available in Nextcloud.

Lock files

File locking helps users prevent conflicts with colleagues who are trying to edit the same files. While office documents and notes can be edited in real time in the browser, some files have to be downloaded to make changes. Lock the file and collisions are avoided! Other users can easily contact you in chat or by a comment to ask what is going on.
