Unishare is a cloud based service offered by the UG that can be used to store and share information with colleagues both in- and outside of the RUG. You can access Unishare either via the Unishare web interface or via the Nextcloud client. The Nextcloud client is available for all major platforms (Linux, Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android).
