"These days, businesses tend to run cloud office suites, such as Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, instead of standalone office suites, like Office 2021 or LibreOffice. Say, however, you don't want to pay or don't trust Google or Microsoft with your data, or you're concerned about digital sovereignty, or you prefer o pen-source software. In that case, you have two other choices to seriously consider for your small-to-medium business (SMB): Nextcloud Office and OnlyOffice."
"However, though the SMB versions need to be installed on Linux servers, they're simple to use on Windows or any other operating system. You treat them like any other Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application and access them via your favorite web browser. Both open-source office suites also have Android and iOS apps for easy access. What they don't come with is artificial intelligence (AI). If that's what you want, you're in the wrong shop."
Nextcloud Office and OnlyOffice are leading Linux-based, open-source cloud office suites aimed at SMBs that prioritize privacy, flexibility, and collaboration. Both offer full-featured document editing, real-time collaboration, and self-hosted deployment while being accessible via web browsers and Android/iOS apps. SMB editions require installation on Linux servers but function cross-platform for end users. OnlyOffice emphasizes compatibility with Microsoft Office formats, whereas Nextcloud Office provides a broader feature set through its integration. Neither suite includes integrated artificial intelligence features, appealing to organizations that prefer to limit AI in daily workflows.
