IANAL, but I do not quite see the relationship between the DSGVO/GDPR and the data format and/or way you access it. AFAIK, a lot of businesses that have to respect the german data protection laws work with other data formats and access mechanisms, like cloud services, on-premise databases, even Excel.

If you’re using the DSM’s authentication methods to limit access to certain documents, they should work for SMB as well as for DSM, Drive Office and everything else on the NAS.

Yes, all is true. I appreciate your thoughts.

BUT:

1. We need simultaneous access and versioning.

2. We don‘t trust in external server and cloud services.

3. We use other Synology services/application in connection with point 1.

4. The costs are unbeatable.

Nevertheless we are thinking to change our system in order not to be so dependant to certain services.

BTW: The login (DSM and Synology Drive Office) works with DT since the last update to DSM 7.0.1 and Synology Drive Server (18th of January) …
