 Office.eu: the fully European alternative for Microsoft Office and Google Workspace launched in The Hague Summary A fully European alternative to MS Office and Google Workspace.   Quotes Quote Maarten Roelfs explains: "Office.eu is 100% European-owned and runs entirely on European data centres. The data and the apps stay exactly where it belongs and are safe from non-European control. The Office Suite is very intuitive and easy to use, enabling a seamless switch from American software to office.eu. We also help customers to migrate very conveniently from Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. It is currently rolling out across Europe by invitation for selected clients who have requested access. Pricing is comparable to existing market alternatives and tools are available to ensure smooth data migration."   My thoughts As a European, this project seems significant in decentralising the Office space market and dependencies from American tech giants. I'm sceptical it will be as widely accepted as they forecast, but silently hopeful that we get a useful M365/G-Workspace alternative.     Sources https://finance.yahoo.com/news/office-eu-fully-european-alternative-132000449.html?guccounter=1 https://www.theregister.com/2026/03/05/office_eu_suite/ https://office.eu/
