  • Nextcloud works great for document management, if you additionally install tesseract OCR and Elasticsearch. Then you can use any smartphone document-scanner (I personally use “swift scan”) to add new documents via WebDAV Upload, but I think most of them support WebDAV nowadays. The Nextcloud app even has a document scanner feature built in, but it’s not very good.

    I have been reading about the features of paperless-ng and I don’t see what that software additionally brings to the table that a properly setup nextcloud cannot do. Only that I have Nextcloud anyways and it can do much more than document management and I love to have all aspects of my “personal cloud” in one software tool.
