I currently have all my emails with Mailbox.org and I've just moved my websites to Infomaniak, I'm thinking of moving my emails there too. I noted that they also have a product called KSuite which looks like a G Suite / Office 365 Online alternative. Does anyone have any experience of using it? Or are there better solutions out there? Thanks in advance.

Not being able to be selective in what I download from KDrive isn't the end of the world, I can live with that. My bigger problem is how I get the files from Onedrive to KDrive. Uploading them from my home would take months as my connection is pretty poor. I can't see a way of transferring the files directly, but I'll do more digging.

In terms of the family package, I couldn't find this at all. Do they definitely still do it or am i just blind? I ended up signing up for KSuite standard package for now to test things out but its probably overkill for what I need.

Hi, my bad on the 'family' reference. It is the 'teams' package that I use, I just use it for my family. Like I mentioned before though, it is far more cost effective than the kSuite, which is targeted at businesses.

As for the transferring for data, this is possible via a feature in kDrive. It is capable of transferring from a number of cloud storage services, including OneDrive. You can get more info on that here: https://www.infomaniak.com/en/support/faq/2406/import-external-data-to-kdrive

I still have my OneDrive at the moment but aim to close this down. I use my Synology to synchronise the data between kDrive, OneDrive and my Synology for data safety. (Yes, this is overkill) I will eventually remove OneDrive from that as I get a better home cloud setup in place.
