View Enterprise PlansReplace Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive with a private cloud you fully control. MassiveGRID's Nextcloud hosting delivers fast, reliable file sync with end-to-end encryption and no third-party access to your data.
Cross-Platform Sync
Desktop clients for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Mobile apps for iOS and Android. Sync files seamlessly across all your devices with conflict resolution and selective sync support.
File Versioning & Trash
Automatic version history for every file. Restore previous versions or recover deleted files from the trash bin. Configurable retention policies to manage storage usage efficiently.
Secure Sharing
Share files and folders with password protection, expiration dates, and download limits. Public links, internal shares, and federated sharing across Nextcloud instances for cross-organization collaboration.
End-to-End Encryption
Client-side encryption ensures that not even MassiveGRID can read your files. Zero-knowledge architecture for the most sensitive documents with per-folder encryption policies.
Nextcloud is more than file storage. It's a full collaboration platform with document editing, video calls, project management, and team chat — all running on infrastructure you control.
Nextcloud Office
Edit documents, spreadsheets, and presentations collaboratively in real-time. Built-in Collabora Online or OnlyOffice integration with full format compatibility for DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, and ODF files.

Private video conferencing, screen sharing, and team chat. No third-party services, no data leaks. Supports group calls, lobby rooms, and browser-based participation with no app required.
Calendar & Contacts
CalDAV and CardDAV support for syncing calendars and contacts across all devices. Shared calendars for teams, resource booking, and integration with email clients like Thunderbird and Outlook.
Nextcloud Mail
Integrated email client connecting to any IMAP account. Unified inbox, email scheduling, and seamless attachment integration with your Nextcloud files. No need for a separate webmail service.
Deck & Tasks
Kanban-style project management boards and task lists. Assign tasks, set deadlines, and track progress across your team. Integrates with calendars so deadlines show up in your schedule automatically.
Groupware & Integrations
Nextcloud App Store with hundreds of extensions. Connect to LDAP/Active Directory, SAML/SSO providers, and external storage (S3, FTP, SMB). Extend your instance as your needs grow.
Every MassiveGRID Nextcloud instance runs on isolated infrastructure with automated security updates, encrypted backups, and compliance-ready configurations. Your data never leaves the jurisdiction you choose.
