easyTRAINING: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

easyTRAINING is a platform from Knowledge Hero GmbH for knowledge tests, certifications and surveys inside companies. It measures employees' level of knowledge; the teaching itself takes place outside the system. A training catalogue supports the organisation of courses. According to the vendor, results can be compared across organisational levels regardless of the source language, content and tests can be adapted regionally, and detailed analyses of the results are available so that follow-up training can be targeted. The service is offered as SaaS.

Knowledge Hero GmbH is headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany, with an office in Kempten. Its website names no parent company. According to the vendor's trust centre, the applications run in a German data centre and data stays in the EU under the GDPR. For European organisations that process employee test and certification data, this is relevant. Ask the vendor about the data processing agreement, sub-processors and retention periods for results.

Why digital sovereignty matters with easyTRAINING

easyTRAINING is headquartered in DE 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 easyTRAINING scores best on data residency.

easyTRAINING 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 easyTRAINING together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
