File sharing without giving up control
Most businesses need the convenience of cloud file sharing, but not every organization wants its documents spread across consumer-grade tools, unmanaged personal accounts, or foreign-hosted platforms.

Cloudspace manages the platform, updates, monitoring, and backups according to the selected package.
Dedicated Instance Options
Deploy a customer-specific Nextcloud instance for stronger separation and more flexible configuration.

|---|---|---|
| Best for | Small teams and simple file sharing | Businesses needing stronger separation and customization |
| Instance type | Managed shared platform | Dedicated customer Nextcloud instance |
| User management | Package user limits | Customer-managed users |
