The need

Creating an open-source alternative for IT workplaces in educational institutions and public administration

As part of the Phoenix project, Dataport wanted to develop a web-based IT workplace for educational institutions and public administration as an alternative to proprietary solutions such as Microsoft 365. Univention is part of a partner consortium that is supporting the development of Phoenix.

The goal

A web-based, open-source IT workstation offering essential collaboration tools

  • Development of a web-based IT workstation for public administration and educational institutions as an alternative to proprietary solutions such as Microsoft.
  • Conception and implementation of the project with the support of a partner consortium.
  • Use of an open source software for the workstation.
  • Integration of basic functions for working on the computer such as e-mail, calendar, contacts, word processing, chat, video conferencing, collaborative working, as well as saving and exchanging documents.
The result

A new IT workplace made for educational institutions and public administration
