NetXMS: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

NetXMS is an open-source platform for monitoring networks, servers and applications. According to the project website, it includes topology discovery, agents for servers and applications, event processing and scripting. Organisations install and run the software themselves; the vendor does not offer a hosted service. Commercial support and services are provided by Raden Solutions, the company behind the project.

Raden Solutions SIA has its office in Riga, Latvia, so the developer is established in the European Union. NetXMS is licensed under GPLv2, which allows an organisation to inspect the source code and run the software on its own infrastructure. Because the vendor offers no hosted service, the organisation decides where monitoring data is stored. For European organisations this makes NetXMS a self-hosted option with an EU-based developer that also provides its commercial support.

Why digital sovereignty matters with NetXMS

NetXMS is headquartered in LV 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 NetXMS scores best on data residency.

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