Felhő: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Felhő is a Hungarian online platform for company information and verification. Users search company profiles compiled from public sources such as the Hungarian VAT registry, check against the official register that a company exists and is active, and review managers and beneficial owners. A verification score shows how complete a profile is; the operator states it is not a credit rating. The platform also sends monitoring alerts and supports .hu, .com and .eu domain registration. It is delivered as a web dashboard, a REST API and CSV export.

Felhő is operated by Verde Holding Kft. of Balatonalmádi, Hungary, which is also the data controller. According to its privacy notice, the website is served through Cloudflare using EU data centres, while the backend and database run on Fly.io in its Amsterdam region. The software is proprietary and offered only as a hosted service. For a European organisation that needs Hungarian company data, this means an EU-based provider with data processing inside the EU.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Felhő

Felhő is headquartered in HU 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 Felhő scores best on data residency.

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