European Alternatives to Wrike
Looking for a European alternative to Wrike? Wrike, Inc. is a San Diego company whose online terms are governed by California law, with exclusive jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of San Diego County.
Eleven European tools cover the work management, Gantt, workload and portfolio side: four general project suites, two Kanban-led tools, three resource and portfolio planners and two sovereign or self-hostable options, from companies in Ireland, Germany, Bulgaria, Czechia, France and Estonia.
How we rank these tools — 4-step process
-
1
European ownership, verified
The company is headquartered and incorporated in the EU, EEA or Switzerland, and processes customer data in Europe. A US parent company disqualifies a tool from this page regardless of where its servers are.
-
2
Category fit and hands-on review
What the tool actually does, who it suits, and where it falls short — checked against the vendor’s own documentation, changelog and pricing page rather than its marketing copy.
-
3
Compliance and pricing check
GDPR posture, hosting location and the prices quoted on this page are verified against the vendor’s public pricing before publication, and re-checked when we revisit the category.
-
4
Position on this page
Placement on this page can be paid, and that can affect which tools appear here and the order they appear in. It never buys a good review: a tool that fails the checks above is not here at any price, and payment does not change the shortcomings we write about. A vendor can ask us to correct a factual error — not to remove a criticism.
Vendors can pay for visibility on this page. It never changes what an entry says about a product, including the criticism, and we earn nothing when you click through to a vendor. Paid placement can affect which tools appear here and the order they appear in. Editorial policy

Key takeaways
- Wrike, Inc. is a San Diego company whose terms are governed by California law, with exclusive jurisdiction in San Diego County courts and no mandatory arbitration.
- Teamwork.com (Cork, Irish law and courts) has a free plan for 5 users and paid plans at $9.99 and $24.99 a user a month, with capacity planning and billing on Accelerate.
- OpenProject (Berlin) has a free open-source Community edition, and its Enterprise plans start at €5.95 a user with a 25-user minimum, in the cloud or on your own servers.
- awork (Hamburg) lists €5, €12 and €22 a user a month on annual billing, with time tracking in every plan and capacity planning from Standard.
- Meisterplan and Ganttic charge by the resources you schedule, not by login, which suits large teams where most people only read the plan.
- Wimi (Paris) hosts on its own SecNumCloud-qualified data centres in France, and Easy8 lets the contracting entity vary between Prague, London and Brooklyn, so read which one signs your order.
Why people leave Wrike
Wrike is a work management platform for teams that run many projects at once: Gantt charts, workload views, request forms, workflow automation, dashboards, file proofing and more than 400 integrations, according to its features page. It has a Free plan, and its pricing page lists Team at $10 a user a month (2 to 15 users) and Business at $25 (5 to 200 users, annual only), with Pinnacle and Apex on request.
The company behind it is Wrike, Inc. in San Diego, California. Its online terms are a contract with "Wrike, Inc. or the Affiliate of Wrike, Inc. identified on or associated with an applicable Order", they are governed by California law, and the parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in San Diego County. There is no mandatory arbitration, but good-faith negotiation is a condition for starting legal action.
The eleven European tools below do not clone Wrike. Some are general project suites, two are Kanban-led, three are planners for resources and portfolios, and two are open or sovereign options. Which one fits depends on whether your pain is task management, capacity planning, or where your data and contract sit.
- The contract is governed by California law Wrike's terms point to California law and to the courts of San Diego County as the exclusive forum. For a company that wants a supplier whose contract sits under EU or UK law, with a court in its own region, none of the eleven below has that gap: their terms name Irish, German, Bulgarian, Czech or Estonian law or courts where we could read them.
- The entry plan has a ceiling, and the next plan has a floor Wrike's Team plan covers 2 to 15 users and Business starts at 5 users with annual billing only. Seats are sold in groups (of five up to 30 seats, ten from 30 to 100, 25 beyond). Several European tools price differently: Meisterplan and Ganttic charge for the resources you schedule and let any number of people in, and Teamwork.com, factro and Planio have free plans with a fixed size.
- Enterprise features sit behind a sales call Wrike's Pinnacle and Apex plans have no listed price. That is not unusual in this market, and some European tools do the same (Businessmap, Meisterplan and Easy8 show no bare figure we could read). But OpenProject, awork, Wimi, MeisterTask and Teamwork.com all publish per-user prices up to a mid-tier before you talk to anyone.
- Where Wrike is still ahead Wrike lists more than 400 integrations, proofing for creative assets and a large AI feature set. We could not verify whether the European tools match its proofing, and none of them claims a connector library of that size on the pages we read. If your agency lives in review rounds on design files, test that before you commit.
What you have to replace, not just match
Start from what your teams really use in Wrike: Gantt, workload, request forms, proofing, dashboards. Many teams use a fraction. If you mostly need tasks, boards and a timeline, a general suite such as Teamwork.com, awork or factro covers it. If you need to see who is booked on what across portfolios, look at Meisterplan, Ganttic or Easy8 first.
Move one team at a time. Export or recreate the project templates, run a live project in the new tool for a month, and keep Wrike read-only until the last project is closed. Check seat minimums before you choose (Teamwork.com wants at least 3 or 5 users on paid plans, OpenProject 25, Easy8 10 in the cloud).

- Source code. Closed source, as Wrike is.
- Independently checked. ISO/IEC 27001:2022, SOC 2 Type 2.

Meisterplan is a product of itdesign GmbH in Tübingen (Amtsgericht Stuttgart, HRB 382021). Its pages state ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 27018:2019. The terms page returned no text for us, so we cannot confirm the governing law.
It prices by the number of resources scheduled, not by users, and says users are free and unlimited. Contracts can be annual or monthly, with a 30-day trial with no card, and there is no bare price on the page. Its privacy page says trial systems can be hosted in Frankfurt or in Oregon, USA.
What Meisterplan does better than Wrike

- Built for portfolio and capacity planning rather than task lists
- German company with a register entry and ISO 27001 and 27018

- Not a task manager: day-to-day work needs another tool
- Trial systems can be placed in the US, so check your production region

Best for: Companies that want a suite with cost and resource tracking
Easy8's terms say the provider can be Easy8 s.r.o. in Prague (registration 26426269), Easy8 Software Ltd in London (08960980) or Easy8 US LLC in Brooklyn. The terms are governed by Czech law, with disputes settled by arbitration at the Arbitration Court attached to the Czech Economic and Agrarian Chambers.
Its pricing page lists Essentials, Business and Platform cloud tiers plus Enterprise on request, with a minimum of 10 user licences in the cloud, a 30-day trial without a card and a 30-day money-back guarantee. The per-user amounts were not reliably readable in our fetch, so none is quoted here. An on-premises option has a 25-user minimum.
What Easy8 does better than Wrike
- Resource management and cost tracking in the project suite

The pricing page lists €3 (Communauté), €9 (Drive), €12 (Projets) and €15 (Suite) per user a month for teams up to 100 users, with enterprise tiers from 50 users. The suite covers tasks and Gantt, chat, a drive, a calendar and video, and offers a free trial.

Best for: Small teams that want fixed monthly plans
Planio GmbH is in Berlin. Its terms are governed by German law with Berlin as the place of jurisdiction, and its pricing page says data centres are in Germany. We did not check a commercial register entry.
Plans have fixed limits rather than per-user prices: Bronze is free (1 project, 2 users), Silver €19 a month (3 projects, 5 users), Gold €49 (7 projects, 10 users), Diamond €95 (15 projects, 20 users), Platinum €199 (40 projects, 45 users) and Enterprise from €349. There is a 30-day trial with no card and monthly billing without long-term contracts.
What Planio does better than Wrike
- Flat, predictable monthly prices and a free tier
- German law and German hosting
- Month-to-month billing
Where Planio is a step down from Wrike
- Project and user caps on every plan

Best for: Teams that need to see who is booked on what, next to another task tool
Ganttic is provided by GANTTIC OÜ, Vallikraavi 2, Tartu, Estonia. The terms say use of the website is subject to Estonian law; no courts are named and we found no registry code in the text.
It prices by the number of resources you plan with. The Free plan covers up to 10 resources with all features except API access, and paid PRO plans scale with resource count and include the API. Every plan allows unlimited users, and there is a 14-day trial without a card. No PRO price was shown.
What Ganttic does better than Wrike
- Free plan for up to 10 resources
- Unlimited users on every plan
- Estonian company, simple to try
Where Ganttic is a step down from Wrike
- Planning only: it does not replace task or file workflows
- No price visible for paid plans
- No court clause and no registry code in the terms we read
Standout against Wrike. It does one thing, resource scheduling, and lets everyone view it for free.
What actually breaks when you switch
The hard part of leaving Wrike is its structure, not the account. Custom item types, request forms, dashboards and automations do not export into another tool. Budget time to rebuild templates, and keep Wrike read-only until the last live project is closed.
Watch the minimums. OpenProject paid plans start at 25 users, Easy8 cloud at 10 licences, and Teamwork.com paid plans at 3 or 5. A team of eight can fit Teamwork.com or factro, but not OpenProject on a paid plan.
Read who signs the order. Easy8 may contract through a US or UK entity, and Meisterplan trial systems can sit in Oregon. Ask for the entity and the production region in writing.
Which European tool is closest to Wrike?
For general work management with a free entry point, Teamwork.com is the nearest in shape: projects, time tracking, capacity planning on Accelerate, automation and invoicing, with published prices and a free plan for 5 users. awork covers similar ground for agencies, with time tracking in every plan.
For the heavier enterprise end, Easy8 and Businessmap are the ones to try, and Meisterplan if portfolio and capacity planning is the main job. None of them was verified against Wrike's proofing or its 400-plus integrations.
Which of these have a free plan?
Teamwork.com (up to 5 users and 5 projects), OpenProject (Community edition, open source), factro (up to 3 users), MeisterTask (3 projects), Planio (Bronze, 1 project and 2 users) and Ganttic (up to 10 resources) all list a free option on their own pages.
awork, Wimi, Easy8, Meisterplan and Businessmap offer a trial instead, between 14 and 30 days depending on the tool. Wrike itself has a Free plan with "essential task management".
Can I host it myself or in a sovereign cloud?
OpenProject can be self-hosted, as it is open source, and its Enterprise plans are offered in the cloud or on-premises. Easy8 lists an on-premises option with a 25-user minimum. Wimi hosts in France on its own data centres, with SecNumCloud SaaS 3.2 qualification stated on its legal page.
Wrike's security page lists certifications but not data locations. Its detailed security overview lives on a separate site that we did not read, so we say nothing about its regions.
What is different about how these price per seat?
Most charge per user. Meisterplan and Ganttic charge per resource that you schedule and let anyone view, which suits a large organisation where a hundred people read the plan and twenty are booked. Planio sells flat monthly plans with caps on projects and users (for example Silver: 3 projects and 5 users).
Which one to pick
If you want the nearest all-round replacement, with a free plan, published prices and time tracking, start with Teamwork.com. If you want open source or your own servers, OpenProject. If you run an agency and want capacity and time in the same place, awork.
For planning across a portfolio, Meisterplan and Ganttic charge by the people you schedule and let everyone else view the plan, which is cheaper for large organisations. Businessmap and Easy8 suit bigger organisations with Kanban or Waterfall, as long as you read which entity signs the order.
Be honest about the gap. Wrike lists more than 400 integrations, proofing for creative files and an AI feature set, and we could not verify any of those at the European tools. Switch if you want a European contracting party and a court close to home, and keep Wrike where proofing and its connectors are the reason you use it.
