Case Study: Institute of Biology of Lille streamlines research workflow with ONLYOFFICE

Institute of Biology of Lille organizes research workflow for 260 employees with ONLYOFFICE

The Institute of Biology of Lille (IBL) needed a secure and efficient way for its 260 employees to share, control access to, and collaborate on office documents with both internal and external teams. Their challenge was to find a self-hosted solution that provided full data control, avoided multiple file copies, and offered project management tools, moving away from partitioned local network services and cloud suites like Google and Microsoft that lacked data confidentiality. They chose the ONLYOFFICE Enterprise Edition for its comprehensive features.

ONLYOFFICE provided the IBL with an all-in-one document management and collaboration platform that included real-time co-editing and project tracking tools. The results were very positive, with the suite becoming a daily basic instrument that made teams more productive, efficient, and innovative. The solution also allowed the IBL to tackle new challenges, such as migrating content from G Suite to ensure data confidentiality and facilitating collaboration with external research teams by connecting ONLYOFFICE Document Server to Nextcloud.
