Infomaniak My Ksuite: email, office suite, storage, the ideal European solution against the American Big Techs

Faced with the omnipresence of American services, the Swiss company Infomaniak offers an alternative to the giants of Silicon Valley and answers point by point with efficient services, respectful of your privacy and the environment, and accommodated in the heart of Europe. Free, My Ksuite has all the necessary advantages for your digital uses to come home.

While our dependence on Big Tech products and services is now indisputable, it is tempting, see Vital, to turn to quality and especially European alternative offers.

My Ksuite, the full and free answer to Google, Microsoft, etc.

In this little game, My Ksuite, from the Swiss company Infomaniak, is distinguished thanks to a rich, complete, and very well thought out offer, which represents a perfect and sovereign ecosystem to escape Google, and its workspace, or Microsoft, and its office 365.

Like the well -known Google, Microsoft or even Yahoo!, My Ksuite – It is the name of the consumer offer of Infomaniak – is articulated around several pillars intended to meet all your essential digital needs:

• Email service, electronic messaging;
• KDRIVE, an online storage space;
• A collaborative office suite integrated into KDRIVE;
• A videoconferencing solution (Kmeet).

It’s free, and you are not the product

Mail service. The email address is created in less than a minute, just have a phone at hand, and you can opt for three domain name extensions: @etik.com, @ik.com or @ikmail.com.
If the Gmail interface seems out of you or too thought of to learn from your habits to set up your commercial profile, you will appreciate the modern and limpid interface of infomaniak. Everything is done so that you can easily manage your emails, and that’s it. Not the shadow of an added advertisement.
As part of the free offer, Infomaniak allocates you 20 GB for your emails. It is obviously possible to synchronize your emails between several devices, to easily migrate from Gmail or Outlook and to import your old emails and, of course, you can consult your emails thanks to a customer from your PC, Mac, Tablet or Smartphone. A dedicated mobile application is also available on iOS and Android. Recently, the encryption option available on the web interface allows you to share sensitive personal information such as medical data in a even more secure manner.

KDRIVE. Online storage is obviously also accessible from your computers, tablets and smartphones via the web or free dedicated applications (available on Android and iOS, for the mobile part, and Windows, MacOS and GNU/Linux for the PC part), which automatically synchronize your files.

The my ksuite, free offer, gives the right to 15 GB of lifetime storage for your photos and documents. Which lets you see if you only keep office files.
On the other hand, it will be necessary to think of opting for a paid option, My Ksuite+, to benefit from more space and be able to keep online, without worrying, the countless photos that we all take on a daily basis. You can choose to increase your storage to 1 TB, or 6 to. But we will come back to it.
Finally, to make your life easier, Infomaniak has developed automatic migration tools to recover your data on your current cloud supplier (Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive) and switch it to KDRIVE.

Onlyoffice. The online office and collaborative suite, compatible with Microsoft Wrod, Excel and PowerPoint, covers all your needs. You will therefore access Docs, the online wording of Infomaniak, Grids, its spreadsheet, and, finally, points, presentation of presentation. Nothing is missing!
The interfaces of these three tools are classic enough for you to meet there instantly. You can of course open your documents created with other solutions.

The essentials, but not only

Of course, around these major tools revolve other services:

• an agenda and an address book, integrated in Mail Service;
• a creator of QR Codes and short links (CHK);
• Swisstransfer (to transfer large files, up to 50 GB, for 30 days);
• Or, KPAST, which allows you to share sensitive information, such as a password, in complete safety.

All these tools are accessible for free, without hidden costs and, point capital, without resale of data. The best guarantee on this point is still that Infomaniak designs and hosts its offer in Switzerland.

In addition, Infomaniak offers advanced functions such as PDF’s editing or signature, available with the My Ksuite+paid version.
The Swiss company regularly incorporates innovations, such as a sovereign AI, with My Ksuite+ also, to make sure that your data remains in Europe and help you write your emails and documents. With more than 70% of its R&D workforce, the Swiss company takes very seriously innovation and the creation of new products at the service of users.

Privacy, security, ecology

The service is therefore subject to the LPD Swiss law of September 1, 2023, one of the most restrictive in terms of personal data protection and the obligations of cloud operators in Europe. In addition, all the solutions deployed by Infomaniak are fully in line with the GDPR. Users are therefore less concerned with having than when they use North American services.
Besides, the Data Centers of Infomaniak are all located in Switzerland exclusively. To ensure the security and resilience of your data, the company performs three copies of your data, of course encrypted. They are made on three distinct and stored supports in different data centers to avoid irremediable loss in the event of a site fire, for example. So you can be serene.
Finally, in addition to being socially committed – everything is designed and built in Switzerland, and the company belongs to its founder and its employees, Infomaniak has a strong ecological commitment since all its data centers are fueled by renewable energies produced locally.
Its most recent site even revalues the electricity used, which comes at 60% from the hydraulic power station and 40% solar panel. The hot air produced then serves, thanks to heat pumps, to heat 6,000 nearby dwellings.

My Ksuite+, the advantage of the paid offer

European champion, Infomaniak therefore proposes to escape the antique of the web which wants that “if it is free, it is you the product”, in other words that you pay in another way, by making you succeed in your data for example, as is the case with Google.
Free is an interesting argument. However, it may be interesting to opt for a my ksuite+offer.
First, you will gain storage. The 20 GB limit for your emails then disappears and gives way to an unlimited space. As for photos and documents, as we said, you can choose between two options.
The first right to 1 TB, for 19 euros per year, which is a very low price for this capacity. The second will cost you 99 euros per year and give you access to 6 TB. Which is perfect for family storage.
To make your bill even more successfully and allow you to switch to a sovereign European offer, we offer a promo code: NUM80. It will allow you to apply a reduction of 80% for 12 months on a My Ksuite+ 1 TB subscription.

And for professionals?

Infomaniak also offers Ksuite proa complete collaborative solution thought for companies. In addition to the functionality of My Ksuite, it incorporates a personalized domain name, instant messaging to facilitate internal communication, a agenda and a shared professional address book, centralized management of users, integrated AI tools to boost productivity, as well as the possibility of personalizing your suite of the colors of your business. All in a sovereign, ethical, secure and 100% European environment.
