We’re excited to share that ACATO GmbH is joining XWiki SAS as an official partner. ACATO is a German consultancy specializing in certification support and audits across Europe, with a strong focus on ISO 27001 compliance. They design and implement complete Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) for SMEs, from infrastructure setup to enterprise-grade knowledge management solutions.
With servers located in Düsseldorf, ACATO offers secure, locally hosted solutions for clients who prioritize data sovereignty.
XWiki is a natural addition to ACATO’s portfolio. It provides an enterprise-ready, scalable knowledge management solution that aligns perfectly with their clients’ needs. It’s also an excellent option for organizations currently using Confluence and looking for a smooth migration path. This is especially relevant in light of Atlassian’s announcement to retire its Data Center offering.
What this means for the German customers
For many organizations operating under strict regulatory requirements, Atlassian’s recent strategy shift is seen as a significant risk. Yet migrating to a new platform can feel daunting. The challenges include complex data transfers, anticipated adoption costs, and the potential loss of key integrations or features. Combining XWiki and ACATO's expertise will help your company successfully navigate these challenges.
This partnership will bring multiple benefits to the German companies:
- An enterprise-ready, scalable knowledge management platform
- A Confluence Migration Toolkit allowing them to seamlessly migrate their users, groups, spaces, links relations, supported macros, and integrations directly into XWiki
- An expert team to support with the migration process and develop key features if needed
The partnership between XWiki and ACATO empowers organizations in Europe to build and cultivate their management processes while embracing data sovereignty as a key factor in their digital strategy. ACATO is focused on helping organizations improve their business resilience. That is why this partnership allows small family businesses and large organizations benefit from the positive impact envisioned by the founders of both companies.
