process.science: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

process.science is a process mining solution that works inside existing business intelligence tools, mainly Microsoft Power BI and Qlik Sense and, according to the company, Tableau. Event data from ERP, CRM and SCM systems is turned into process models showing bottlenecks and deviations, with process discovery, conformance checking and enhancement. The offering includes a data preparation tool, automated analysis, an IoT Miner for industrial use and ready-made process apps, for example for procure-to-pay and order-to-cash. The company also provides consulting alongside the software.

process.science GmbH & Co. KG is based in Hamburg, has a second location in Dortmund and was founded in 2019. Because the software runs as an extension within your own BI environment, data can stay in your own tenant, including on-premises or Azure-hosted Power BI setups. The company states that it is ISO/IEC 27001 certified and GDPR compliant, and that customers keep control of their ERP and log data. The software is not open source. For European organisations, the data location is largely determined by their own BI platform choice.

Why digital sovereignty matters with process.science

process.science is headquartered in DE 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 process.science scores best on data residency.

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