Libera Suite: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Libera Suite is a free, open-source office suite for Windows, macOS and Linux. It bundles Libera Words for text documents, Libera Tables for spreadsheets and Libera Slides for presentations, plus Libera Diagrams, a viewer for Visio drawings. It opens and saves Microsoft Office and LibreOffice formats such as docx, xlsx, pptx, odt and ods. Everything runs on the user's own computer, with no account and no cloud service, and the project documents that it has no telemetry.

Libera Suite is made by Abilian, a French company (SAS) with its registered office in Paris. The host application is released under the Apache 2.0 licence. The editors come from Euro-Office, an AGPL fork of ONLYOFFICE, and are distributed under AGPL v3. The project describes itself as early and in beta. It is installed through a Windows installer, a Flatpak, a pip package or Homebrew. The editors are downloaded from an Abilian server at install time. Documents are never uploaded.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Libera Suite

Libera Suite is headquartered in FR 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 Libera Suite scores best on data residency.

Libera Suite is open source. You can audit the source code, self-host the software and keep the encryption keys under your own control. Switching is easier because data and software are not tied to a single party.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Libera Suite together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
