Current App Voting

As you can see, a lot has happend in the App Center over the past 14 months. Furthermore we would like to constantly expand the App Center’s offer to make UCS the open platform for deployment and management of IT in organizations. In order to better assess the needs of UCS users, we occasionally create so-called app votings where you and other users can vote on apps that are not yet in the App Center, but which we think provide added value. If there is a clear interest, we will look into the topic or app. The current voting deals with the following app ideas:

  1. Kimai is a web-based time tracking solution for teams, departments and small businesses that can be used in the browser and on mobile devices. Times are recorded for customers and their projects.
  2. ownCloud.online Connector is an idea for an app to automatically synchronize the user accounts and permissions centrally managed in UCS for your ownCloud.online organization account.

We are looking forward to your voting and will keep you informed about new additions in our newsletter as usual.

    Good report, I use en.nextfiles.de for Nextcloud because it has a high level of data protection, is GDPR compliant and it comes from Germany. And is very attractively priced.
