an open source and encrypted alternative to Google Docs – Explica

Cryptpad is a tool for editing collaborative documents in the purest Google Docs style, the difference is that in this case we are talking about an open source and encrypted solution. Cryptpad uses 100% client-side encryption, so that the content we write about them and the people who host the server is protected.

You can use the service with or without registration, but if you create an account you get 50 MB of permanent storage (currently it was extended to 1 GB by the COVID-19 crisis) so that the documents that you store in your CryptDrive are never deleted due to inactivity. You can also use it without even registering, and in neither case do they ask you for any personal information.

Cryptpad has a large battery of web applications. It has the three classics: the text editor, spreadsheets and presentations, but in addition to this it has the creation of surveys, Trello-style Kanban boards, a collaborative drawing board, and a code editor.

It offers you the possibility of protect your files or documents with a password, and has a self-destruct function that erases documents according to the time you decide.

In Cryptpad the files you create can be public or private, you control the documents permissions before sharing, you can insert your documents on any website using a segment with iframe, and you have collaborative editing options and a chat.

In general, all the tools work very well from the browser, it has a basic and easy-to-use design, perhaps more similar to Microsofts Office online than to Google documents. Payment plans are offered from $ 5 to $ 15 with much more storage space and the only personal information they require is an email.
