What Proginov does

Proginov S.A.S. is a privately held French enterprise software publisher and cloud hosting provider founded in 1994 and headquartered in La Chevrolière, France, where it also operates its own datacenters. The company builds and sells Proginov ERP, a fully integrated, modular management platform covering commercial management, production (GPAO), WMS, accounting and finance, payroll and HR, CRM, project-based management ("gestion à l'affaire"), workflow and EAI, EDI, GED electronic document management, business intelligence, web collaboration, e-commerce and mobility solutions. The suite is delivered both on-premise and as SaaS on Proginov's sovereign private cloud, and the datacenters are also commercialized to third-party software publishers (éditeurs partenaires) as a standalone hosting offering.

The company's go-to-market is direct and vertically segmented, targeting French SMEs and mid-sized companies (PME/ETI) across more than 13 industry verticals including BTP/Construction, Agroalimentaire, Menuiserie industrielle, Industrie, Transport/Logistique, Santé, Distribution, Négoce, Aerospace subcontracting, Automotive, Textile, Carrières et sablières, Filière bois and Emballage. The business model combines recurring software subscriptions and SaaS, recurring managed/hosting services (including HDS-certified e-health hosting under the Proginov Santé brand), and direct professional services for implementation and integration performed by Proginov's own in-house team — a rare éditeur-intégrateur configuration in the French ERP market. Certifications include ISO 27001 and HDS for hosting, with GDPR-compliant practices and exclusive France-based data residency.

Proginov's strategic positioning emphasizes French data sovereignty ("cloud souverain"), 30 years of domain presence, vertical depth across the ERP value chain, and direct delivery of both software and infrastructure. Named customers span both SMB and enterprise scale, including Auchan Direction Technique, Autodistribution, Haworth, SEDE Environnement, Masteris SNCF, Groupe Millet, Relais d'Or Miko and Coveto. The company is led by President Philippe Plantive, operates with €8,000,000 in share capital, has not raised external venture funding, and shows no public listing or parent-company relationship.
