A first stable Nextcloud release will be made available in early July serving as a drop-in replacement for ownCloud to provide customers and users a seamless upgrade to Nextcloud. This release will come with secure communication capabilities based on Spreed.ME and Nextcloud will offer enterprise subscriptions which deliver long term support, services and access to the enterprise features customers are used to.
