You're right, and I should clarify: non-standard from the perspective of an AMER Enterprise IT Engineer, and specifically from a talent acquisition perspective. I don't doubt you could train staff in NextCloud's offerings, but again, the point I was making is that it's probably not the best solution for a startup if you want to make sure time is spent solving the challenges of your product, rather than the challenges of the underlying corporate kit you've chosen to adopt.

As for locked-in..._eh_, that's both fair (Google and Microsoft both have abysmal data exfil capabilities) but not as valid as it used to be (there are gobs of startups whose entire schtick is automating your exit strategy from a "locked-in" vendor). By the time vendor lock-in for your corporate IT is a concern, you've likely got the capital to splash on an actual, dedicated Enterprise IT team.
