Kate MorleyDoes anyone here use a hosted, UK/EU/Switzerland-based alternative to Dropbox in a business setting? We tried out Proton Drive, but its sharing and permissions model is too basic for us — every folder has a single owner who is the only person who can share anything within it. We need to be able to do things like saying “this folder can be read by anyone in the design department and written to by design managers, and anyone with read access can also create links to share files within it”. We’re not interested in a self-hosted solution.
lornajane@katemorley I’ve been very happy with @nextcloud and have it as a hosted service from @thegoodcloud in NL. I’m mostly a single user but I think it would support the use cases you described

Glad to hear you're happy with the service! And, indeed, we do offer dedicated, hosted, and managed servers for business usage.
File structure and permissions can be a complicated beast to tackle, especially with all the fine-grained options Nextcloud offers, so we always offer custom implementation support to businesses to help folks get started.

@katemorley your use case should be possible, as Nextcloud offers an option for sharing permissions, and you can share your items with different groups of users (see screenshot)
