OpenPanel: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

OpenPanel is a web and product analytics platform that measures page views, events and user behaviour, and positions itself as an alternative to Mixpanel and Plausible. It is offered as a cloud service and as software that can run on the customer's own servers or in a private cloud. The code is published on GitHub under the AGPL-3.0 licence.

The operating company is OpenPanel AB in Stockholm, Sweden. The vendor states that cloud data is hosted in the EU, that it acts as a data processor for cloud customers, and that a data processing agreement is available. Because the software is licensed under the AGPL-3.0, the self-hosted version can be deployed. A European organisation can therefore keep all of its analytics data on its own infrastructure.

Why digital sovereignty matters with OpenPanel

OpenPanel is headquartered in SE 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 OpenPanel scores best on data residency.

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