Optimum Live: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Optimum Live is a management solution for opticians, developed by Optimum, the brand of Centre Informatique de Traitement. It runs entirely in the browser as SaaS, on PC, Mac, tablet or smartphone. It supports running a point of sale: sales, stock, customers, real-time management of several stores, dashboards and statistics, sending SMS and email from the software, and connections to lens suppliers, accounting, website, e-commerce and online appointments. The publisher also supplies Optimum Audio for hearing-aid specialists.

Centre Informatique de Traitement is a French SAS headquartered in La Seyne-sur-Mer; the website names no parent company. According to the vendor, data is hosted in an environment approved for hosting health data (HADS) on secured servers in so-called clean rooms, and the software complies with the GDPR. The site does not say where the servers are located. The website's privacy notice states that some service providers may process data outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Ask the vendor for the precise hosting location and the processors used for product data.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Optimum Live

Optimum Live is headquartered in France 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 Optimum Live scores best on data residency.

Optimum Live is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

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