Hi!
I'm looking for an alternative to Google Workspace for a small business.
Currently we have 3 workspace accounts. We need 8 more email accounts under our domain but with it being €6,90 a month per account that's already €75,90 a month.
I think we'll just hire some mail server to host the mail but I'm looking for a selfhosted solution for everything else (including a webmail client).
I found nextcloud which seemed promising, but the mail client in it is not good (and the mobile layout isn't good either; it integrates well on Android through WebDAV though). The snappymail and roundcube integrations don't cut it either. I also don't like that calendar invitations are all sent out from the same email address for all users, with only the reply-to address being different.
Zimbra seems good but it's also a mailserver in itself, which I don't want to host myself.
We have at least the following specific requirements:
-Good modern layout
-Proper text editor for mails
-Scheduling a time to send an email
-Adding signatures to emails
-Email templates
-Calendars with shared write access
-Calendar syncable to phones and other applications
-Calendar invitations sent from the user's email (also when being made on a phone)
-Contacts
-Creating and sharing forms (alternative for Google forms)
-File sharing feature would be nice to have but not necessary
-Everything accessible from one place (email, calendar, contacts, etc.)

Oh yeah. ”Free” translated to English from GoogleSpeak: ”we might start charging you for it any moment”.
