Google creates detailed profiles from online activities to play us targeted advertising. Your business data is an excellent source of detailed information about you and your business for Google.
We think that business information belongs in a secure cloud that respects your privacy and blocks any unauthorized access.
GoogleDrive stores your data encrypted. However, the decryption codes are also stored centrally as US-based cloud providers are legally obliged to have access to your data if necessary. Furthermore they are obliged to give access to your data to US authorities if requested.
ownCloud Online offers comprehensive protection against unauthorized and unwanted access of any kind with activated end-to-end encryption and the Zero-Knowledge-Principle. It enables the secure exchange of files with both internal and external users.
You entrust all your data to your cloud. You want fast access to it anytime. GoogleDrive throttles your transmission speed above a certain limit.
We think your business shouldn’t be limited. So should your cloud. With ownCloud Online you access your data at full speed at any time. There is no limitation in bandwidth or speed.
Due to legal constructs such as the CLOUD Act passed in 2018, US-based cloud providers such as GoogleDrive are forced to have access to their data when needed. There is also a connection to the NSA and other US government agencies.
There are no such legal encroachments on your privacy at ownCloud Online. Thanks to the German company and server location, your data is subject to German data protection law, which is one of the most advanced in the world. Thus, your data is protected not only technically but also legally.
In your cloud, you store data and documents that are your business foundation. But what to do if something goes wrong? You won’t find a support hotline at Google Drive – you’re on your own.
With ownCloud Online you have competent support included. Within 24 hours we will help you by e-mail or telephone until your problem is solved.
