AMMON (Val Software): sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

AMMON is a software solution from Val Software for managing training activities. It is aimed at training organisations and apprenticeship training centres (CFA), the training departments and in-house academies of companies, and the bodies that fund and collect training contributions. It brings customer relations, administration, scheduling, finance and reporting into one tool, with configurable portals for learners, trainers and clients and an API catalogue for integrations. According to the vendor, the software follows French training regulations and new versions are installed automatically.

Val Software is a French simplified joint-stock company seated in Blagnac near Toulouse; no parent company is stated. The vendor says its SaaS offer is hosted by OVH in France, with an annual external cybersecurity audit and a commitment to reversibility (return of data) at the end of the contract. The service therefore stays under European law, with no non-European host. AMMON is commercial software, not open source. Ask about the data processing agreement and the export formats.
