How to switch

Video meetings are the easiest swap of all: there is rarely data to migrate. Update meeting booking links and go.

Remember: the Data Act gives you a legal right to get your data out and switch cloud services, with a maximum 2-month notice period.

Common questions

Why switch from Jitsi Meet?

Jitsi Meet is controlled from a country outside the EU. For non-sensitive use this is rarely a problem, but for customer data, personal data or the public sector a Swedish or European vendor means simpler GDPR work and no CLOUD Act exposure through ownership.
