What it does for you

A single repository for everything your team needs to know: operating procedures, company policies, workflows, and answers to common questions. The team authors pages collaboratively, allowing new employees to search and onboard independently instead of asking around. All pages are stored directly in your company file storage on a server we host for you in Egypt.

It is a module of Asas by FoundationCX, working seamlessly alongside company file storage.

Arabic and hosting in Egypt

  • Arabic: The Nextcloud interface supports Arabic natively; remaining Collectives elements in English work alongside full right-to-left Arabic page authoring and search. We can localize remaining strings under customization.
  • Hosting: We host it for you in Egypt; pages reside as clean Markdown files within your private storage and are included in automated backups (infrastructure design).

Who it is for

Frequently asked questions

Is it an alternative to Confluence or Notion?

Yes, for internal knowledge bases: spaces, nested pages, full-text search, simultaneous editing, and version history. The difference is running inside Asas alongside your files and chat, hosted in Egypt.

What is the difference between it and "Team Docs and Knowledge Base"?

Nextcloud Collectives is designed for organizations adopting the Asas ecosystem wanting knowledge management integrated directly into file storage under single sign-on. Teams wanting a standalone workspace with a complete Arabic UI and rich diagramming should look at team docs and knowledge base.

Can we migrate our current documentation?

Yes, we convert Word documents and existing procedures into structured Markdown wiki pages and organize them with you (data migration).

Our limits

  • The software is from its developer (Nextcloud); our role is hosting, configuration, operation, and support.
