Plenit Cloud: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Plenit Cloud is the cloud offering of Plenit, a platform for IT companies such as MSPs, resellers and distributors. It covers cloud servers with private networks and firewalls, remote desktop for virtual workspaces, file storage, S3-compatible object storage and disaster recovery. Partners manage configuration and deployment themselves and can resell the services under their own brand. Plenit also provides IT management, a marketplace for third-party software and tools for sales and billing.

Plenit Technology S.L. is based in Madrid, Spain; no owner or parent company is named. According to the provider, the cloud infrastructure is built in-house and operated in Europe. The website, however, speaks both of data centres in Europe and of data centres in Europe and the Americas, without naming countries, so ask the provider which locations apply to your contract. Customers choose an availability zone when deploying. Plenit states that the service is designed for GDPR-compliant workloads. A self-hosted variant is not described.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Plenit Cloud

Plenit Cloud is headquartered in ES and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Plenit Cloud hosts data in EU, OTHER. Exactly what stays within the EU — and what does not — is defined by the vendor's data processing agreement and sub-processor list, not by a setting you control yourself; check those documents for the precise scope, including backups, logs and support access.

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