Jalios Workplace: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Jalios Workplace is a digital workplace platform from the French company Jalios. It brings intranet portals, internal communication, document management, group collaboration, knowledge management and video conferencing together in one working environment for employees. Portals are assembled with widgets, themes and newsletters, and the product connects to existing tools such as email, calendar, HR and ERP systems. An AI function is also available. Jalios Workplace can be used alongside Microsoft 365 or as a standalone, so-called sovereign variant, and is offered as SaaS and on-premise.

Jalios is a French company with its registered office in Le Chesnay, France; its legal notice names no parent company. According to the vendor, the architecture can be set up as open, hybrid or sovereign, up to a SecNumCloud region. The pages consulted do not state exactly where the SaaS data of Workplace is hosted; ask the vendor. With an on-premise installation you choose the location yourself and keep control of data and updates. For the GDPR, Jalios points to its security policy.
