What people like

File compatibility with Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents is some of the closest around, so round-tripping files with Office users rarely breaks formatting. Self-hosting is free and fully open source if you want to run it yourself.

Worth knowing

The cloud version's free tier is limited to a handful of users, and collaborative editing feels a step behind Google Docs on very large, simultaneously-edited documents.

Why does it score 72?

Legal jurisdiction
EU member-state HQ
Why this score?

Legally registered in Riga, Latvia – a full EU member state.

30/30
Ownership & control
Acquired/corporate, non-EU parent
Why this score?

Held by a Singapore-based holding company rather than an EU/EFTA parent, so it scores 0 here despite the Russian-linked operations having reportedly been spun off in 2019 – worth weighing if sovereignty matters closely to you.

0/25
Data sovereignty
Own infrastructure
Why this score?

ONLYOFFICE runs its own infrastructure rather than a third-party cloud.

30/30
Accountability & trust
Fully open source + GDPR
Why this score?

The core editors are fully open source (AGPL) and GDPR-compliant, one of the more thoroughly auditable office suites available.
