      NextCloud.

      I wondered. And with AD integration - would provide security

      AD is never something that provides security. It integrates with existing security, but provides no security on its own. NextCloud with AD or without AD are equally secure.

      be that as it may - will need SSO as best possible.

        Nextcloud would likely try to Sync all of that data though.

        Only if you told it to. If you don't want it to, why woudl you be telling it to?

        So sync is option, not required.

          Anything that doesn't use a VPN will use Sync. That and web. NextCloud offers both. Sync that you control, so only syncs the parts that you want. But if shoddy Internet is a problem, then you want sync.

            No reason you can't do that with NextCloud. I still need to connect my personal NextCloud install to the LDAP server in my lab. Anything that enables LDAP can be used with AD. It's figuring out the connection string that's a pain.

              One plan was to go Sharepoint, but believe the file space requirements exceed allowable space.

              Really? How?

                Cost issue, the current Sharepoint doesn't allow for it. They actually don't have Sharepoint currently.

                  That doesn't make sense.

                    Cost is an issue? Assuming you got hosted SharePoint only I think it's $4/u/m... Or you migrate them to online only version of O365 use email there, etc and SharePoint.

                      Assuming you don't need syncing, you can use NextCloud via the web interface or webdav. Then you skip the sync worry.

                        Tiny capacity, though.

                          1 TB per user?

                            That's ODfB. The Sharepoint storage proper is like 100MB.

                                        Cost is an issue? Assuming you got hosted SharePoint only I think it's $4/u/m...

                                        Tiny capacity, though.

                                        1 TB per user?

                                        That's ODfB. The Sharepoint storage proper is like 100MB.

                                        OMG, that's near useless!

                                        It's only for documents. Goes a long way when used as intended.

                                        The data storage will need to cover:

                                        • PDF
                                        • xls
                                        • doc
                                        • png
                                        • jpg
                                        • dwg
                                        • ~

                                        Those are all documents.

                                        I'm sorry - what then classifies as NOT a document?

                                        Well an ISO, an executable, any kind of binary file that isn't a document, system files, etc. There are a lot of things that are grey areas, but things like images and docs are definitely docs. PDF, XLS, DOC... those are as document as document gets.

                                          Used as intended? That's a joke, right? Storing large PDFs should be a part of the intention. DWG files can be huge.
