eligamo: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

eligamo is a modular software-as-a-service platform for banks, developed in Switzerland by eligamo AG in Zurich. It covers client lifecycle management, client advisory management for advisory meetings, market development with a CRM, and document management with scanner integration, digital signature and archiving. The CRM provides an advisor desk with a 360-degree view of leads, prospects and clients, pipeline management and campaigns. The platform is built on a microservice architecture with a business process engine and can be integrated into the bank's existing system landscape, including core banking systems.

eligamo AG is headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland; the website names no parent company. Switzerland is not an EU member but is an EFTA country, and the European Commission has confirmed that Swiss data protection law is adequate. The provider does not state where customer data is hosted, so ask the vendor about data location, subprocessors and the processing agreement, as client and advisory records at banks are highly sensitive. The solution is delivered as a service; no self-hosting option is described.

Why digital sovereignty matters with eligamo

eligamo is headquartered in Switzerland and falls under Swiss law, including the revised Swiss data protection act. Switzerland is not an EU member, but the European Commission recognises its level of data protection as adequate. Its Swiss headquarters does not by itself bring it under US legislation such as the CLOUD Act.

eligamo hosts data in Switzerland only. Switzerland is not part of the EU or the EEA, so the GDPR does not apply there directly; the European Commission does recognise Swiss data protection as adequate, so personal data can go there without extra safeguards. Our model therefore scores it between EU hosting and hosting outside Europe. If you require strictly EU hosting, take this into account.

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