Praxis
For which customers use the Cloud.
Four scenarios in which the move to the Cloud is concretely cost-effective.
Employees work from anywhere
The starting point: Home office, field service, changing project sites. Different programs and data are missing on every device.
Our approach: Cloud Desktop provides the same workspace on every device. Programs, data, and settings remain identical, regardless of where you work from.
The server hardware would need to be replaced
The starting point: The server has reached the end of its lifecycle. A new purchase requires a five-figure investment all at once.
Our approach: Migration to the Cloud instead of replacement procurement: no capital expenditure, predictable monthly costs, capacity grows with demand.
Files are scattered
The starting point: Data on local drives, in private Cloud accounts, and on USB sticks. Nobody knows which version is current.
Our approach: Nextcloud hosted in Germany upon request: a centralized storage location, clear permissions, and versioning. GDPR-compliant and without US providers.
Emails must be archived
The starting point: Retention obligations are known, but implementation is lacking. The mail server is growing uncontrollably.
Our approach: Legally compliant archiving with MailStore: audit-proof, lightning-fast search, reduces load on the mail server.

Ask a question01Where is the data stored?
Insight-IT GmbH operates Cloud services on its own infrastructure as well as through partner offers in German data centers. For Nextcloud and Cloud Desktop, the storage location can be contractually fixed to Germany. For Microsoft 365, data is stored in Microsoft data centers; where data sovereignty is critical, Insight-IT GmbH recommends the self-hosted alternative.
02What is the cost of a Cloud Desktop?
The Cloud Desktop is billed per workstation per month, depending on the performance class and storage requirements. There are no investment costs for server hardware. Additional workstations, more storage, or additional software can be added or reduced on short notice.
03Can Microsoft 365 be used in a GDPR-compliant way?
Microsoft 365 can be operated in compliance with data protection laws, but requires configuration: a data processing agreement, telemetry settings, a permission concept, and data retention policies. Insight-IT GmbH configures and documents these points. Those seeking complete data sovereignty combine Microsoft 365 with Nextcloud for sensitive areas.
04What is the difference between Nextcloud and OneDrive?
OneDrive is part of Microsoft 365 and is operated by Microsoft. Nextcloud is an open-source solution operated by Insight-IT on its own or German infrastructure, providing full control over storage location, permissions, and retention. For many companies, a combination makes sense: Microsoft 365 for collaboration, Nextcloud for sensitive documents.
05How long does a Cloud migration take?
A Cloud Desktop can be made operational for individual workstations within a few days. The migration of a complete server environment takes several weeks, depending on the volume of data and specialized applications, and is carried out in stages to ensure business continuity. The process is documented in advance, including a fallback level.
06What happens in the event of an internet outage?
Cloud workplaces require an internet connection. For this reason, Insight-IT plans for redundancy, such as a second line or mobile backup, and defines which systems must remain available offline. For companies with critical processes, hybrid models are possible, where central services remain local.
