factro

factro is a German project-management product operated by **Schuchert Managementberatung GmbH & Co. KG** in Bochum, Germany. The brand positions itself explicitly around "100% Made in Germany" — all customer data is stored on German servers, the product is **DSGVO and BDSG-neu compliant**, and the operating entity is a founder-led management-consulting firm with no external venture-capital or private-equity involvement on the cap table. The product covers projects, tasks, time tracking, document management, and reporting with particular adoption in the German public administration sector and across 30+ industries. factro serves more than **5,000 organisations and 100,000 users** and offers a free tier covering up to 10 users with no credit card required and no subscription obligation — an unusually generous freemium for the German PM market. Paid tiers add advanced reporting, automation, and unlimited project depth. The full-stack German hosting + DSGVO compliance + founder-led ownership combination puts factro at 5/5 in the procurement-grade tier with no CLOUD Act exposure. Best fit: German and DACH SMBs, public administration, and mid-market teams that want a German-rooted PM alternative to Asana / Monday / Trello with explicit DSGVO posture and free-tier evaluation path. Together with Stackfield and MeisterTask, factro forms a three-pillar German-rooted PM shortlist.
