Office.eu launches sovereign European office suite
Office.eu launched March 4 in The Hague as a fully European-owned, open-source office suite built on Nextcloud Hub and Collabora Online, hosted entirely on EU infrastructure. It targets Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace users seeking GDPR compliance and immunity from the US CLOUD Act, with nearly 15,000 waitlist signups already.
// ANALYSIS
Europe's sovereignty anxiety is producing real products now — Office.eu is a serious, full-stack alternative that arrives at exactly the right political moment.
- –Built on Nextcloud Hub + Collabora Online on Hetzner infrastructure — a proven open-source stack, not vaporware
- –Complete suite: docs, spreadsheets, presentations, cloud storage, email, calendar, and video conferencing — all .docx/.xlsx/.pptx compatible
- –Explicit CLOUD Act immunity is the core pitch for EU governments, NGOs, and regulated industries nervous about US data jurisdiction
- –Invite-only now with Q2 2026 broad rollout; 15,000 waitlist applicants signals real enterprise demand
- –The main risk: Nextcloud-based solutions have historically struggled with performance and polish compared to Google Docs — enterprise adoption will hinge on execution
