Nextcloud GmbH has secured a framework contract through NHS Supply Chain to provide its self-hosted, open source collaboration platform to NHS trusts seeking to replace Microsoft SharePoint amid ongoing concerns about data sovereignty and licensing costs. Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust is confirmed as an early adopter, deploying Nextcloud Hub on on-premises infrastructure to handle clinical governance documentation. The deal marks one of the largest Nextcloud deployments in the UK public sector to date.
