Nextcloud Desktop Client, alternative Linux à Microsoft OneDrive

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

Nextcloud Desktop Client is a solid replacement for Microsoft OneDrive if you are willing to self-host or use a third-party provider. It handles two-way sync, versioning, and sharing effectively. The main hurdle is that it does not connect to Microsoft's servers, so you lose direct compatibility with Microsoft 365 users unless they also use Nextcloud. For users who value data sovereignty and control, this is a superior choice. For those needing deep integration with Office 365, it is not a drop-in replacement.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil

  • Automatic two-way synchronization of local folders to the cloud
  • File versioning and history recovery for deleted or modified files
  • Ability to create secure sharing links for external users
  • Background operation with low resource consumption
  • Cross-platform availability for sharing with Windows and macOS users

Ce qui change

  • Requires a Nextcloud server (self-hosted or paid service) instead of using Microsoft's infrastructure
  • No direct integration with Microsoft Office or Teams ecosystems
  • Selective sync is managed via the client interface rather than right-clicking in Windows Explorer
  • Sharing permissions are configured on the server side, not via Microsoft account settings

Ouvrir vos fichiers Microsoft OneDrive

Nextcloud Desktop Client syncs files as standard local files. You can open any document, image, or video synced from OneDrive directly with your native Linux applications. There is no proprietary format lock-in; the files remain in their original formats (e.g., .docx, .pdf, .jpg). If you were using OneDrive for Business with specific Office 365 online editing features, you will need to use local applications like LibreOffice or OnlyOffice for editing, which handle standard Microsoft Office formats well.

Questions fréquentes

Can I sync with my existing Microsoft OneDrive account?

No. Nextcloud Desktop Client only connects to Nextcloud servers. You cannot use it to sync directly with Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, or other third-party cloud providers.

Does it work with Windows users?

Yes. The Nextcloud Desktop Client is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Your Windows-using friends or colleagues can install the same client to sync with your Nextcloud server, allowing for seamless cross-platform sharing.

Is there a free tier for hosting?

You can self-host Nextcloud for free on your own hardware or a cheap VPS. Alternatively, many hosting providers offer paid Nextcloud plans. Microsoft OneDrive offers a small free tier, but Nextcloud's value comes from full control and no vendor lock-in.
