Woffu: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Woffu is a Spanish web service for recording working time, absences and personnel documents. The software lets employees log their working hours and manages leave, absences and documents in one place. The service is delivered online as software-as-a-service. For European organisations it is an alternative to time-tracking tools such as Clockify or Connecteam.

Woffu Job Organizer SL is based in Barcelona. Visma announced in April 2022 that it was acquiring Woffu, which continues to operate as an independent company under the same name. Visma is headquartered in Oslo, Norway, and is itself majority-owned by the British investor Hg; Visma is the parent company. The website links to a privacy policy and a security policy and shows ISO 27001, 27018 and 27701 certifications. The website does not state where customer data is stored, and no open-source version is offered. A European organisation can therefore ask Woffu for its data processing terms and storage location.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Woffu

Woffu 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. The ultimate owner is based in GB. Foreign control undermines part of the certainty a European headquarters offers.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Woffu scores best on data residency.

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