=======================
Migrating from ownCloud
=======================
.. note:: Especially when migrating from ownCloud to Nextcloud you should
create a backup of the config, database and the data directory,
in case something goes wrong.
Currently migrating from ownCloud is like performing a manual update.
So it is quite easy, to migrate from one ownCloud version to at least one Nextcloud version.
However this does only work with versions that are close enough database and code-wise.
See the table below for a version map, where migrating is easily possible:
+-----------------+-----------------+
| ownCloud | Nextcloud |
+=================+=================+
| 10.0.1 or later | 12.0.1 or later |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| 10.0.0 | 12.0.0 |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| 9.1.x | 10.0.x |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| 9.0.x | 10.0.x |
+-----------------+-----------------+
| 9.0.x | 9.0.x |
+-----------------+-----------------+
After downloading the correct version of Nextcloud from our
`older releases page <https://nextcloud.com/changelog/>`_,
proceed like described in the :doc:`manual_upgrade` manual.
Afterwards you can use the Nextcloud updater to update your instance to the newest version.
