Dedicated instance · quoted on request

Your company's own private cloud for files, documents and calls

We set up Nextcloud, the open-source collaboration software companies move to when they leave Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, as your company's own instance, and we keep it running. Files, office documents, chat, video calls, calendars and contacts in one place that belongs to you.

It runs on our servers in the EU or on your own, is never shared with another client, and is backed up every day. Tell us about your team and we send you a quote.

What you get

An instance of your own

Your company gets its own Nextcloud instance and its own database, never shared with another client, on your own domain (for example cloud.yourcompany.com) or on a subdomain of ours, with an HTTPS certificate.

Files, documents and calls

File sync on laptops and phones, documents, spreadsheets and presentations edited together in the browser (Word, Excel and PowerPoint files included), chat and video calls in Talk, and shared calendars and contacts. We also set up Talk's high-performance backend, which helps once a call has more than two people.

The move from what you use now

We move your files from OneDrive and SharePoint, Google Drive or Dropbox, and plan the switch with you so nobody works in two places for long.

Sign-in with the accounts you have

Single sign-on with Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID or Keycloak. Staff use the account they already have, and someone who leaves loses access in one place.

Updates, monitoring and backups

We apply Nextcloud's updates and security fixes and keep watch on the instance. It is backed up every day to a second location, separate from the server it runs on.

Training for your team

A session for your staff, and written documentation for whoever manages users and groups on your side.

We quote per organisation, from the number of users, the amount of data and where it runs, excluding VAT where it applies.

Two ways to run it

Either way, the instance is yours alone and we keep it running. The difference is whose servers it sits on.

On our servers in the EU

We host it and look after everything underneath: servers, storage and backups. Your data stays in the EU, backups included, and one quote covers the lot.

On your server or cloud account

We install it in your own data centre or in your cloud account (AWS, Hetzner or another provider you use) and run it there. You decide where the data lives and pay the infrastructure bill directly. For larger teams we can build it for high availability on AWS or Kubernetes.

How it runs

  1. 1You fill in the form: how many people, roughly how much data, what you use today and where it should run.
  2. 2We reply by email with a quote, or with questions first if we need more to size it. The quote shows the setup and the move separately from the cost of running it.
  3. 3Once you accept it, we set up the instance and sign-in and try it with a few of your people.
  4. 4We move your files, train your team and switch over. From then on we run the updates, the monitoring and the daily backups.

What this does not include

Worth knowing before you ask for a quote.

  • Email hosting. Nextcloud is not a mail server: its Mail app reads the mailbox you already have, so your email stays with your current provider.
  • Support from Nextcloud GmbH. We are an independent company and not a Nextcloud partner. A Nextcloud Enterprise subscription, if you want one, is bought from Nextcloud GmbH, separately from our quote.
  • The infrastructure bill when it runs on your servers or in your cloud account. That stays between you and your provider.
  • Changes to Nextcloud's own code. Your instance runs Nextcloud as released, with apps from its App Store, so every update applies cleanly. Integrations with your own systems through its API are quoted separately.
  • IT support for your staff's computers and phones, beyond setting up the Nextcloud apps on them.

Not sure whether something you need is covered? Ask in the form, or write to office@c9group.dev.

Questions people ask first

Are you Nextcloud?

No. Nextcloud is open-source software developed by Nextcloud GmbH in Germany together with its community. We are an independent company that installs and runs it for our clients. We are not affiliated with Nextcloud GmbH and are not one of its partners.

Where is our data stored?

On our servers it stays in the EU, backups included. If it runs on your own server or cloud account, it stays wherever that is, and you choose.

Is our instance shared with other clients?

No. Every client gets its own Nextcloud instance and its own database.

Do we need a Nextcloud Enterprise subscription?

Not to start. Nextcloud is free to use under its open-source licence. Nextcloud GmbH sells Enterprise subscriptions with support from the vendor and recommends one for instances with more than 500 users. If you want one, you buy it from Nextcloud GmbH; it is not part of our quote.

What happens to our email?

Nothing changes. Nextcloud is not a mail server, and its Mail app connects to the mailbox you already have. Email hosting is not part of this service.

Can our staff work from their laptops and phones?

Yes. Nextcloud has desktop apps for Windows, macOS and Linux and mobile apps for Android and iOS. Calendars and contacts sync over CalDAV and CardDAV, which iPhones, Macs and Thunderbird support without extra software.

How is it priced?

Per organisation, once we know how many people will use it, roughly how much data you have and where it should run. The quote shows the setup and the move separately from the cost of running it.

Can we leave later?

Yes. The files and the data are yours, and when you leave we hand them over. Nextcloud is open source, so another host or your own team can run the same software.

Ask for a quote for your private cloud

Tell us about your team and what you use today. We reply by email with a quote, or with questions if we need more to size it.

The quote and everything we deliver go to this address.

Optional. It helps us see who you are.

Nothing is paid here. We use your details to prepare the quote, as our privacy policy describes.

Would rather run it yourselves?

Our guide covers what Nextcloud does, how to install it with Docker or Kubernetes, and what it costs next to Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.
