Detailed Review
eramba's site shows the legal name Eramba LTD and offices in Bratislava and London. The product has been available since 2015, with a public forum, open documentation and free live training.
Pricing is flat: unlimited users and data, and all modules included.
Editions
Community is free and on-premises. Enterprise on-premises is EUR 2,500 per year and Enterprise SaaS with EU or US hosting is EUR 5,000 per year. Implementation workshops cost EUR 800 each.
Frameworks and use cases
ISO 27001, ISO 27002, NIS2, DORA, GDPR and SOC 2 are listed, together with templates for policies, controls and questionnaires.
Community and transparency
The company states it is a small team with a public changelog and forum. Its comparison table contrasts a flat fee against per-user pricing.
Limitations to Consider
eramba is a GRC toolkit rather than an automated evidence collector: you configure risks, controls and workflows yourself, so it needs someone who knows GRC. The SaaS edition lets you choose US hosting, so pick EU explicitly. The about and terms pages did not state the company registration number, so verify the contracting entity on the order.
Who Should Use eramba
Organisations with in-house GRC expertise that want an affordable flat-fee or free self-hosted GRC tool.
