Migrating from Microsoft 365 to Nextcloud
To ensure a successful migration, organizations need to map the functionality from their existing Microsoft setup to Nextcloud. OneDrive and Office Online are relatively straightforward to replace since they work very similar to Nextcloud Files and Nextcloud Office. More complex is the replacement of Microsoft Teams and Sharepoint, since Nextcloud works differently here.
