FAQ

Questions about Nextcloud alternative hosting

Nextcloud is self-hosted software — you run it on your own infrastructure. cryptfiles.cloud is a managed SaaS: E2E encryption, EU servers, and GDPR compliance without any infrastructure or IT maintenance burden.

Due to zero-knowledge architecture and client-side encryption, potentially more: on third-party Nextcloud instances the operator could potentially access files. On cryptfiles.cloud, this is technically impossible by design.

Direct sync migration isn't built-in, but you can re-upload files. The main benefit: no server infrastructure to maintain going forward.

Yes. Shared links, password protection, and expiry dates make cryptfiles.cloud great for team file sharing. Dedicated team workspaces are on the roadmap.
