MEM Courrier: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

MEM Courrier is open-source software for the electronic management of mail and correspondence, aimed at municipalities and other public bodies. It handles paper and electronic mail across several channels and is complemented by a mobile app (ME2M) and optional AI-assisted extraction and classification features. MEM Courrier is a derived version (fork) of Maarch Courrier, extended with productivity and integration modules that Edissyum develops and maintains. You choose between an on-premises installation and a SaaS or cloud environment.

Edissyum Consulting is a French company based in Carpentras. The software is released under the GNU GPL v3, in line with the licence of Maarch Courrier, and the source code is hosted on GitLab. It is listed in the SILL, the list of free software recommended by the French government. When installed on your own infrastructure, your correspondence and data stay under your own control. With the SaaS option, the chosen hosting variant determines where the data is stored.

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