Archipelia: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Archipelia is a cloud ERP for small and mid-sized companies and mid-caps in trading, manufacturing, retail, e-commerce and food production. It covers commercial management with purchasing, sales and invoicing, a warehouse management system (WMS), production with bills of materials, work orders and planning, accounting, reporting and BI, CRM and product information management (PIM). Add-on apps cover the warehouse barcode terminal, the in-store checkout and a mobile B2B CRM for field sales; electronic invoicing is supported. Archipelia is delivered as a cloud service.

Archipelia is developed by Autarcia in Villeneuve-d'Ascq, France, and the site names no foreign parent company. The vendor says the software is designed, developed and hosted in France, in a private cloud with data kept in France, and states that the ERP complies with the GDPR. According to its privacy policy, no data is transferred outside the European Union without appropriate safeguards. The site does not name the provider that supplies the hosting infrastructure; ask the vendor.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Archipelia

Archipelia is headquartered in France and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Archipelia scores best on data residency.

Archipelia is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Archipelia together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
