Office.eu: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Office.eu is a cloud-based office suite from EUfforic Europe B.V. in The Hague, positioned as a European alternative to Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. It is aimed at organisations and covers documents, spreadsheets, presentations, file storage, email, calendars and video meetings. According to the website, EU Drive is available while the other components are listed as coming soon. The company helps customers migrate from Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. The service is delivered as SaaS and, according to the launch press release of March 2026, is being rolled out in stages by invitation.

The platform is partly built on Nextcloud. According to the vendor, the core is open source, the service is hosted entirely in Europe in EU-owned data centres, and the company is European-owned. The website does not state which licence applies. For a European organisation the relevant point is that both the vendor and the hosting sit within the EU, and the company states that it is European-owned. The hosting providers are not named publicly.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Office.eu

Office.eu is headquartered in NL 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 Office.eu scores best on data residency.

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