Migration Scenarios
The question isn't whether alternatives exist, but which one fits your situation.
Microsoft 365 → Open Source
From Outlook, Word and Teams to Nextcloud, Collabora, and Element. Email via your own servers (Mailcow, Stalwart) or European providers like Migadu.
| Microsoft 365 | Open-Source Alternative |
|---|---|
| Outlook | Thunderbird |
| Word / Excel / PowerPoint | LibreOffice / Collabora |
| OneDrive | Nextcloud |
| Teams | Element (Matrix) |
| SharePoint | Nextcloud + Collabora |
| Exchange | Mailcow / Stalwart |
Cloud Repatriation: AWS / Azure / Google → Europe
The US Cloud Act allows American authorities to access data at US companies – regardless of where the servers are located. We bring your data back to Europe.
Windows → Linux
For many workstations, Linux is a full alternative. Browser, office, email – daily work functions seamlessly. We evaluate where the switch makes sense and which distribution fits.
Active Directory → Open Source Identity
User management without Microsoft. Keycloak or FreeIPA deliver enterprise-grade functionality under your own control: SSO, MFA, LDAP, SAML, OpenID Connect. It's the most complex migration, but also the most liberating.
For Government and Public Administration
Compliance requirements, public procurement rules, legacy IT landscapes – we understand the constraints. From local municipalities to state-level agencies, from schools to hospitals.
