Warum diese Bewertung?

OVERVIEW

About sevdesk

**sevdesk** (Offenburg, Germany, founded 2013) is one of the most-installed DACH accounting tools for freelancers, founders, and SMBs — pricing starts at **€8.90/mo billed bi-annually**, with German DSGVO + GoBD compliance built in. As of 2022 it is **a Cegid Company** — Cegid is the French ERP / accounting group acquired by **KKR** (US private equity) in 2022 for ~€7B. So the operating brand is German, the immediate parent is French, and the ultimate beneficial owner is US private equity. For DACH SMB procurement this nuance matters: nominally European, materially US-controlled at the group level.

PUBLIC DOCUMENTS

Vendor does not publish a public DPA. Without a publicly accessible Data Processing Addendum, small EU customers cannot self-serve the processor agreement — this caps the compliance score (see How we score).
