ownCloud is now a DataStore partner. Welcome! Effective immediately, customers in Switzerland and France can now call on the expert support of DataStore when implementing ownCloud.
No modern company worth its salt can function without cloud storage. Staying fast and effective in a competitive market requires flexibility. Which is why public clouds have enjoyed plenty of success in recent years. But handing your data over to third parties involves a high level of trust. So companies are increasingly setting up their own clouds. Because when it comes to security, nothing beats a private cloud. Companies with high security demands, or in situations where the cloud also needs to fulfill legal and compliance requirements, prefer the private cloud. Recently, many have opted for ownCloud – a very successful open-source alternative to public clouds. This cloud collaboration solution already has more than 600 satisfied corporate customers and is used by around 200 million users worldwide. Why? ownCloud enables greater digital sovereignty, security, and data protection. For DataStore, specialists in data center services with a strong focus on cybersecurity, ownCloud is an excellent addition to an extensive portfolio geared toward secure data storage.
