At our startup, we rely on nextcloud (self hosted on a root server from a German hosting provider) + libre office for all of the more „mundane“ parts of our business. To be fair though, we’re in a very niche market (offshore wind) running at a very different speed compared to your regular startup. It’s been a conscious choice to run everything on foss and self host as much as we can. Big plus for nextcloud: the sync client works reliably even on intermittent and extremely slow connections (offshore). The overhead of maintaining nextcloud ourselves is manageable (yet another docker container) and it’s been astonishingly reliable ever since we got started. For us, maintaining control over data is paramount, so it matters greatly to us. If one day the overhead should become too much, I’d probably move our nextcloud over to a nextcloud provider. |

I recently moved (from Contabo to Hetzner), and I struggled to migrate NextCloud. I ended up creating a new Nextcloud container and re-uploading the files. I did have some more unique setup (trying to move from Caprover to Coolify, and the Coolify NextCloud image was using sqlite instead of MySQL for the NC database). If you migrate, just make sure to back-up the files locally first in a different folder, because the server is authoritative, so if on the new server the files are missing, they will also be deleted locally.
It's nice to hear you are dedicated to self-hosting. If you ever need a self-hosted Hotjar alternative, check out my UXWizz platform :)
