## What reviewers say about Nextcloud's pricing

### What they like

-   **Nextcloud to offer excellent value for money** They appreciate that it is open source and free, which makes it accessible to everyone.
    
-   **It allows them to save significantly by replacing subscriptions to services like GSuite** MS Office 365, iTunes Match, and iCloud. They also highlight the cost-effectiveness of using cheap hardware and S3 compliant storage solutions.
    
-   **The flexibility of starting with a free plan and upgrading as needed** And they find the overall cost to be much lower compared to other commercial products.
    

### What holds them back

-   **Nextcloud's pricing can become complicated and expensive** Especially when using paid apps or for very small organizations. They feel that the subscription options are not attractive for small businesses and that scaling can be challenging without a subscription.
    
-   **Some reviewers also mention that it may not be as cheap as other services like Dropbox or Drive if only considering cost without factoring in privacy benefits**
