projectfacts: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

projectfacts is business software for service companies from 5 POINT AG in Darmstadt, Germany. It combines project management and resource planning, time tracking, quotes and invoicing, CRM, a ticket system, collaboration tools and personnel management in one system. The vendor targets agencies, IT companies, consultancies, staffing firms and training institutes, and says fields, workflows and reports can be adapted to your own processes. An open API connects it to other systems, and it supports DATEV export, ZUGFeRD and e-invoicing.

5 POINT AG is a German company with locations in Darmstadt and Lindau, and its website names no foreign parent. According to the vendor, development and operation take place in Germany in German data centres. You can use projectfacts as a cloud service or run it on your own servers (on-premises), which gives you full control over where data is stored. For European organisations that want to keep client, time and billing data under EU jurisdiction, this is a relevant option.

Why digital sovereignty matters with projectfacts

projectfacts 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 projectfacts scores best on data residency.

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