Baserow: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Baserow is an open-source, no-code platform for building databases and applications, positioned as a data collaboration platform for teams. It offers a database builder with grid, gallery, kanban, calendar, timeline and form views, an application builder, visual automations with triggers, conditions and loops, and dashboards with charts. An AI assistant called Kuma builds data structures from a description, and there is an AI field, an MCP server and an API-first design with plugins. Baserow is available as Baserow Cloud, self-hosted through options such as Docker or Helm, or as a managed private instance on request.

The software is open source under the MIT licence. According to Baserow, all Baserow Cloud customer data is stored exclusively in Germany. If you self-host, you decide the location, and custom hosting regions can be arranged for a managed private instance on request. The company cites compliance with GDPR, HIPAA and SOC. For European organisations, the combination of open source and self-hosting is relevant for limiting dependence on a single provider.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Baserow

Baserow is headquartered in NL 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 Baserow scores best on data residency.

Baserow is open source. You can audit the source code, self-host the software and keep the encryption keys under your own control. Switching is easier because data and software are not tied to a single party.

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