Japan to add millions of new nodes to federated Nextcloud network

Sounds impressive.

If Nextcloud continues to add features and get more traction, perhaps it can become a viable alternative to Google drive/mail/calendar?

Does anyone here have experience deploying Nextcloud in a business setting?

We are using NC with ~250 employees, works fine and runs smooth as butter, syncs to desktop well but many prefer to use the web interface. We are using LDAP auth, it powers our whole stack (Zimbra, OTRS, Debian/Ubuntu servers, Wifi, remote desktops, custom ERP, etc). Honestly, we have more problems with custom built software ($$$) than open source that is free for all. Sometimes I wish we could alter our internal workflows in a blink of an eye to leave out the greedy companies with whom we have software development agreements as legacy.

How well does calendar/contacts/email/docs syncing work with mobile devices?

Synchronizing calendar & contacts works great in my experience! I'm using DAVDroid for that.

In my experience, Nextcloud's file sharing features are great, working as expected. We use it mainly to share large files with business contacts, both directions. I haven't tried the desktop apps. We use the web interface and the mobile apps.
