European alternatives to Google Docs

Discover European-built tools you can use instead of Google Docs.

Google Docs made live collaboration on documents normal, and it's genuinely good at it. But every document lives in Google's US-hosted cloud. For teams handling contracts, HR files or anything sensitive, that jurisdiction question doesn't go away just because the editor is convenient. The European tools below offer the same shared writing and editing, often with a full office suite attached. Some are open source and self-hostable; others are hosted in the EU. Documents stay under European law, and several read and write standard Word and ODF files.
