This guide presents the advantages of kSuite (Standard, Business, Enterprise), the suite of productivity and online collaboration tools developed in Switzerland by Infomaniak.

 

Preamble

  • kSuite simplifies user management in a company and groups your products into a single invoice with a single due date.
    • It also includes advanced management of users of all the applications you need to collaborate online.
    • You choose the domain name and kSuite is then set up according to your needs in terms of number of users and storage space.
  • kSuite is a bundled offer that can be upgraded to a higher offer at any time but it is not possible to change to a lower rate later, nor to transfer kSuite to another Organization.
    • The products included in kSuite cannot be moved or canceled independently of each other.
  • To help you identify the kSuite offer that best suits your needs, refer to this other guide.

 

Choosing kSuite over individual apps

The question of choosing kDrive and/or Mail separately, standalone, rather than the suite kSuite may indeed arise.

kSuite is more economical, simplifies user management in a company and groups all your products into a single invoice with a single due date. The offer is recommended from the moment you own or wish to have a domain name that will be associated with it.

It also includes advanced and unified management of users and teams, as well as kChat which cannot be ordered separately.

Here are some other points:

  • unlocked features
  • 1 single invoice
  • address book & dynamic calendar for the Organization
  • more important disk storage (per user)
  • Custom Brand offered with kSuite Enterprise

In summary, choosing this collection of web tools over individual applications offers advantages in terms of integration, simplified management, real-time collaboration, multi-platform accessibility, and flexibility. These advantages can improve your efficiency, productivity, and overall user experience.

This guide concerns kSuite and user management as well as their different types of access.

 

Preamble

  • Each kSuite includes 1 first user offered upon subscription; compare the offers by clicking here.
  • Each user is entitled to their email address on the domain name around which your kSuite is organized.
  • The email address quota will depend on the offer and the number of users:
    • Standard: 1 user = 2 email addresses (2 = 4, etc.)
    • Business: 1 user = 5 email addresses (2 = 10, etc.)
    • Enterprise: 1 user = 10 email addresses (2 = 20, etc.)
  • You can assign a kSuite email address to a user who is not part of kSuite.
  • To obtain more email addresses, you must modify the offer to increase the number of users. Example:
    • You order a kSuite Business with 5 users, you benefit from a quota of 5x5=25 email addresses in total in your kSuite, which you can use (for any use - the creation of an email address within the kSuite Mail Service is identical to that of a Mail Service outside kSuite).

 

Add a user to kSuite

Prerequisites

  • The quota of users that can be added to kSuite must be sufficient (in this example, you will need to modify the offer to adjust the number of users first):

Next:

  1. Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click on the action menu in the Users section.
  3. Click on Add a user:
  4. Two possibilities are offered:
    1. Add a user who has no connection with the Organization on which kSuite is located: you will need to configure and generate an invitation by specifying whether the user will receive an email address and if so, whether they will need to log in with it, etc.
    2. Add a user who is already part of the Organization on which kSuite is located: it is the same process as going to the profile of the user concerned within your Organization and then adding them:
  5. In both cases, follow the assistant by carefully reading the instructions, especially the detailed characteristics of each role that can be assigned to the user:
  6. Activate a kSuite license so that the new user can access kSuite.
  7. Activate access to kDrive if necessary (provided that kDrive is multi-user and belongs to the kSuite to which you are adding the user):
  8. The last step allows you to manage the Teams part if you wish; finish by clicking the button to generate the invitation:
  9. The user is added if they were already part of the Organization, or receives an invitation to their email address inviting them to join the kSuite - in the meantime, they are listed as a pending user and you can resend the invitation to them at any time:

 

kChat and kDrive examples

  • Refer to this other guide to add an external user to the Organization so that they can use kChat and kDrive without visibility of the products themselves in the Manager directly.
  • Refer to this other guide for examples of adding a user to kDrive / kSuite.

It is not possible to add a user so that they only access kDrive or kChat separately. In this case, you would need to use, for example, the sharing functions so that third parties can join kDrive temporarily.

This guide explains how to contact and authorize Infomaniak Support to access your online products, and more specifically their content, and provide useful details when requesting assistance.

 

Contact Infomaniak Support

Some email addresses, such as support@infomaniak.com, are not intended to receive direct support requests.

Messages sent to these addresses are not processed by the teams and do not allow for tracking the request.

To ensure proper handling, each request must be submitted via the support center:

  • This process allows for generating a ticket, automatically directing the request to the relevant team, and ensuring complete follow-up until resolution.
  • Once the request is recorded, exchanges can then continue directly by email with support.

Before contacting support, it is also recommended to consult the knowledge base, which includes numerous guides and answers to frequently asked questions.

 

Authorize Support to access a type of content

Infomaniak Support may ask you to grant temporary access to part of your content; this saves time in diagnosing by avoiding unnecessary back and forth:

  • This access is strictly limited to the analysis context and is used solely to identify the source of the problem encountered:
    • Only Infomaniak employees handling your support request directly.
    • Access is granted only from Infomaniak's controlled facilities.
  • In accordance with Infomaniak's privacy policy, your data will never be used for other purposes:
    • You can revoke this access at any time.
    • Otherwise, it expires automatically after 7 days.
       

To authorize Infomaniak to access a specific part of your services (authorizing access to content never opens access to others; each authorization is specific and independent):

  1. Click here to access helpdesk access management on the Infomaniak Manager.
  2. Click the toggle switch to authorize access to the content of…
    1. … email addresses linked to the Mail Infomaniak web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail) + contacts & calendars,

  2. The captured image is thus automatically saved in a Screenshots folder in the gallery.

 

Copy the content of an alert window

… on Windows

To copy-paste as text an error message present in a Windows “popup” window, a simple press on the CTRL + C key on your keyboard is enough to copy the message to the clipboard. You will then be able to paste it (CTRL + V) into the body of the message you are sending.

This guide explains how to add a simple new unique event to a calendar/schedule in the Infomaniak Web app Calendar (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/calendar).

 

Preamble

  • To create a recurring event / regularly recurring event, refer to this other guide.
  • To schedule/meet meeting between multiple users and find the best slot, refer to this other guide about the appointment booking assistant.

 

Add a new event

To schedule a unique event in a calendar managed by Infomaniak:

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak Web app Calendar (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/calendar).
  2. Click the Create button at the top left.
  3. Click on Event:
  4. Fill in the most important fields, such as the title (subject), date/time or duration, possible participants (see below), location, agenda concerned, event color…
  5. Click the green button to add a kMeet link if the event corresponds to a meeting between several people.
  6. Display additional fields by clicking on SHOW MORE FIELDS at the bottom right (and some of these fields may be automatically reused in case of follow-up):
  7. Click on SAVE to add the event to the selected calendar:

You can also click directly on the calendar to add a new event by dragging the mouse pointer over the desired time period.

To add an attachment from kDrive to your events on Calendar, refer to this other guide.

To add reminders to your events on Calendar, refer to this other guide.

 

Add participants to the event

To invite users, add their name or email address when creating the event or afterwards:

You will be informed of their presence or refusal if they follow the procedure sent to them by email when the event is created.

Any update to a scheduled event is also sent by email to all participants.

 

Automatically find the best time between participants

Before creating the event and therefore before sending invitations to participants, it is possible to determine the best time that suits everyone based on each person's availability (e.g., other appointments in their calendars) — this is based on the availability of the guests (not the organizer):

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak Web app Calendar (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/calendar).
  2. Click the Create button at the top left.
  3. Click on Event.
  4. Choose a date and time that would suit you for the event.
  5. Add the participants.
  6. Click on the dropdown menu below the participants to find the time immediately available for all participants closest to the initially desired time:

In the example above, 11:45 is not suitable for a one-hour meeting because Ralph already has a 30-minute appointment scheduled in his calendar at 12:00, so the system suggests 12:30, the closest time when all guests will be available.

An asterisk * next to a participant means that the user's availability is unknown because…

  • … either the person invited by their email address is not an Infomaniak user: no user account exists with the specified email address…
  • … or the invited person does not share their availability: they do not share their calendar at least in read mode with the meeting organizer or have not transferred their calendar to at least one of the organizer's Organizations…

Note, an all-day event (like a memo stating a day of teleworking, for example) will prevent the tool from correctly finding availability.

 

Meeting room

Refer to this other guide if you are looking for information about meeting rooms that can be preconfigured to link an event to a location of this type.

This guide addresses issues that may arise when using Infomaniak applications (such as kChat, kDrive, kAuth, etc.) or tools (such as config.infomaniak.com, the Infomaniak Manager, etc.) with outdated hardware (OS, browser, devices, etc.) old / not up to date / obsolete.

 

Preamble

  • For example, it will not be possible to comfortably access Infomaniak services with an iPhone 5s or 6 on iOS 12.
  • It is therefore recommended to regularly update browsers and operating systems to benefit from the best possible experience with the Infomaniak infrastructure.
  • Also, refer to this other guide specifically focused on browsers and their components.
  • And are you using the latest version of the Infomaniak app concerned?

 

Update the OS, browser, etc.

Old systems or browsers can cause slowness, errors, or incorrect display. It is therefore preferable to rely on regularly updated components as Infomaniak apps work optimally on up-to-date systems and recent hardware.

Example for kChat:

kChatMinimum requirement
Web app (browser)Chrome 134+, Firefox 128+, Safari 17.4+, Edge 134+
Mobile app (iOS)iOS 15.1+ (iPhone 6s or newer)
Mobile app (Android)Android 7.0+ with up-to-date Chrome
Desktop app (macOS)macOS 12 (Monterey) or later version
Desktop app (Windows)Windows 10 or later version
Desktop app (Linux)Ubuntu 22.04 LTS or equivalent maintained distribution

 

If you encounter any issues with an Internet browser, try updating it or installing an alternative:

 

Technologies used by Infomaniak

Many web tools developed by Infomaniak use Angular. The need for up-to-date or recent hardware to run applications is not specific to Angular itself but rather a general requirement for running any modern web application. Here are a few reasons why up-to-date hardware is often necessary:

  1. Angular relies on advanced features of modern browsers, often missing or poorly handled in older versions.
  2. Recent browsers optimize JavaScript execution and graphical rendering, improving the fluidity of Angular applications.
  3. Up-to-date versions fix known vulnerabilities, reducing the risk of compromise.
  4. Modern browsers are more compliant with the latest HTML, CSS, and JavaScript specifications, ensuring better compatibility.
  5. Modern APIs (camera, geolocation, notifications, etc.) are only accessible through recent browsers, essential for interactive experiences.
