The only down side to it, that the files will take size on their machine as well as the NC server, thats it. If you can afford this, then this is the way to go.
That's purely optional. Not a given. NextCloud can be used with files purely on the server just like with SMB.

Huh, how so ? you mean only via web client. If your installing the agent at somepoint it will need to sync the files to your account synced folder.

Nextcloud has a built in SabreDAV server to do native WebDAV. You need a valid certificate that Windows has the root for but it can be mapped like any other share drive on Windows 7 and Windows 10.

That's one option, but not what I mean. You can map drives to it, too.
