Filecamp: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Filecamp is a cloud-based digital asset management service that keeps images, videos, creative files, documents and presentations in one central hub with tagging and search. It offers custom branding of the portal, renditions generated on the fly for download, an online brand guidelines feature, and commenting and approval tools for reviewing creative work. According to the vendor, all plans include unlimited users. Its industry pages address agencies, marketing departments, media and publishing, non-profits, printers and public offices.

Filecamp AG is registered in Cham in the canton of Zug, Switzerland, according to the Swiss commercial register entry. Filecamp states that it stores all data on Microsoft Azure, in one of three Azure regions assigned according to where the customer's account is created; the regions are not named publicly and are available on request. Microsoft is a US company, and Azure's certifications are those of Microsoft. The service is proprietary, with no self-hosting option described. A European organisation should confirm the assigned region and the data-processing terms before signing up.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Filecamp

Filecamp 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.

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

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