Frequently asked questions
What are the best European alternatives to AWS, Azure, Google Cloud?
+
EuroShift lists 8 European cloud & infrastructure tools that are GDPR-compliant, hosted in the EU or Switzerland and reviewed on data sovereignty, encryption and pricing.
Are European cloud & infrastructure tools GDPR-compliant?
+
Yes. Every cloud & infrastructure provider in this directory stores data within the EU or Switzerland and operates under GDPR, with no US Cloud Act exposure.
Are European cloud & infrastructure alternatives more expensive?
+
Usually not. Most European cloud & infrastructure providers are priced comparably to their US counterparts, and several offer a free tier or lower entry pricing.
Is my data safe from the US Cloud Act?
+
Providers headquartered in the EU or Switzerland with EU-only hosting fall outside US jurisdiction, so the Cloud Act and FISA 702 do not apply to your data.
How difficult is it to migrate from AWS, Azure, Google Cloud?
+
Most European cloud & infrastructure providers offer import tools, data export in open formats and migration support, so a switch usually takes days rather than weeks.
How we verify this information
EuroShift checks every provider on company headquarters, hosting location, GDPR status, pricing and public Trustpilot ratings. Listings are reviewed regularly and updated when a provider changes its terms, hosting or pricing.
