Nextcloud vs. OnSolve Critical Event Management & Mass Notification

For a SOHO business, this solution is ideal. You don't need to administrative overhead of other products like GSuite, and it saves licensing costs. The maintenance effort is minimal as long as you use their default applications. Migrations to newer versions can be done with a few commands and run automatically. If you're planning on using Nextcloud in large deployments with many users, you'll start to see higher costs on your resources and maintenance. There will be a point at which Gsuite becomes easier to manage.

Its well suited for early warnings; wellness checks; repeatable long-term duration events. ITs easy to train admins on it. I dont really see any less appropriate uses -- you may not want to use it for EVERYTHING or people ignore messages. So your admins need to be smart about deploying its capabilities. but it has never let me down.

I never needed support as everything always worked fine. The documentation on Nextcloud website is extensive and clear. The community is very active on the forum and should support you if you don't already find what you are looking for.

Nextcloud stacks up pretty well against Mattermost and ownCloud. I really appreciate the fact that Nextcloud seems to integrate with other products pretty seamlessly and allows for extensibility that our product team can extend and improve functionality without a tremendous ramp-up time. We once used ownCloud in previous years, but they went the wrong way, and have found Nextcloud to be the right direction over time.

We didn't compare them to other available notification systems

• It allowed us access to our files from any device over the internet.
• It helped manage and organize our file sharing with third parties.
• It provided a secure wrapper for accessing files.

• Without it I wouldn't have a security business case
• Employees demand this type of service exist
• In a cyber incident you need this kind of out of band mechanism to communicate
