ModulePlanning: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

ModulePlanning is workforce planning software from SZ Informatique SA in Carouge, Geneva, for organisations with complex rosters, rotating shifts and on-call duty, such as public services, healthcare and maintenance. It manages employees with their skills, schedules, absences, tasks, resources and locations in an interactive Gantt-style view. A consistency check warns when a plan breaks your own rules or the limits of labour law and collective agreements. Staff see their plans on a smartphone or tablet; no data is stored on the device.

SZ Informatique SA is a Swiss software company based in Carouge; no foreign parent company is stated. Switzerland is not an EU member but is an EFTA country with an EU adequacy decision. The vendor describes ModulePlanning as software installed on your existing servers, so you decide where the data resides and who operates it. No vendor-operated cloud is described; ask whether one exists. For European public-sector and healthcare employers, it is a self-hosted alternative to US workforce-scheduling SaaS tools.

Why digital sovereignty matters with ModulePlanning

ModulePlanning 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.

ModulePlanning runs on infrastructure you choose and control yourself. You decide where the data lives, including fully within the EU if you want — this is not a fixed hosting choice made by the vendor.

ModulePlanning is closed source, but you run the software yourself on your own infrastructure. The encryption keys and the runtime therefore stay under your own control, though you cannot audit or modify the source code. Ask about export options and open standards to limit software-level lock-in.

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