ThinPrint: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

ThinPrint is a print management solution for companies of all sizes, with features such as print management and printer mapping. The software is developed and tested in Berlin and can be deployed on-premises or in a private cloud, including for branch and home offices.

ThinPrint GmbH is based in Berlin and is a 100% subsidiary of Cortado. The vendor describes its network printing as GDPR-compliant, but the page reviewed does not include a data processing agreement and does not state where cloud services are hosted. Because the software can run on-premises, an organisation can keep print data within its own infrastructure. Organisations using the private cloud option should check the hosting location and processing terms with the vendor. Because development and testing take place in Berlin, the German company is the natural contact point for contractual questions and for the processing terms.

Why digital sovereignty matters with ThinPrint

ThinPrint 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.

ThinPrint runs on infrastructure you choose and control yourself. You decide where the data lives, including fully within the EU if you want — this is not a fixed hosting choice made by the vendor.

ThinPrint is closed source, but you run the software yourself on your own infrastructure. The encryption keys and the runtime therefore stay under your own control, though you cannot audit or modify the source code. Ask about export options and open standards to limit software-level lock-in.

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