Nextcloud 27 New Features, Overview and more

Nextcloud 27

Nextcloud 27, also referred to as Hub 5, is a comprehensive client-server software suite designed to provide users with a wide range of features. It allows for efficient storage, synchronization, and file sharing, as well as seamless management of calendars, contacts, and tasks. Additionally, Nextcloud facilitates real-time collaboration among team members.

When combined with integrated office suites like Collabora Online or OnlyOffice, Nextcloud offers functionalities akin to popular cloud storage services such as Dropbox, Office 365, or Google Drive. Users have the flexibility to host Nextcloud either in the cloud or on their premises, tailoring the solution to their specific needs.

As an open-source system, Nextcloud originated as a fork of ownCloud in 2016, continuing to evolve and improve its capabilities. Nextcloud providers offer free accounts with storage ranging from 2 to 5 GB. However, for those requiring larger storage capacity and additional features, premium options are available for a fee. This makes Nextcloud a versatile and scalable solution suitable for various user requirements.
