CEO-Vision develops and markets GoFAST, an open-source Digital Workplace and collaborative GED (Gestion Électronique de Documents) platform that unifies document management, real-time co-editing, secure messaging, video conferencing, workflow automation, form creation, and electronic signatures on a single sovereign platform. It is sold as a paid Enterprise edition (SaaS sovereign or on-premise) and a free self-hosted Community edition, positioned as a French/European alternative to Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and Teams for public administrations and enterprises.
Product overview
CEO-Vision's product portfolio is anchored by GoFAST Digital Workplace, an open-source collaborative GED (electronic document management) and Digital Workplace platform. GoFAST combines document management (built on Alfresco), real-time co-editing (via OnlyOffice), secure messaging (Element/Matrix), video conferencing (Jitsi), workflow automation (Bonita), form creation (SurveyJS), and electronic signatures (Yousign) into a single unified platform. It is offered in two editions: the free Community Edition (OVA, self-hosted) and the paid Enterprise Edition (available as SaaS sovereign cloud or On-Premise). Add-on modules include GoFAST Mail for sovereign email and Yousign integration for electronic signatures. A REST API and CMIS endpoint extend platform capabilities to developers and integrators.

CEO-VISION competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Google Workspace: Cloud productivity and collaboration suite (Gmail, Docs, Drive, Meet) competing for the same productivity and collaboration spend. Referenced in GoFAST's marketing as a cost-comparison anchor (2-8x more expensive).
- Microsoft (SharePoint / Microsoft 365): The dominant incumbent productivity and collaboration suite against which GoFAST explicitly positions itself as an alternative. Provides document management, Teams chat/video, Office apps, and identity; the primary commercial competitor in enterprise and public sector.
Direct peers
- Liferay: Open-source digital experience platform offering intranets, document management, and collaboration portals. Comparable in the enterprise digital workplace category, with overlapping portal, document, and workflow capabilities.
- Nextcloud: Open-source file sync, sharing, and collaboration platform headquartered in Germany. Most directly comparable to GoFAST in positioning as a sovereign Microsoft/Google alternative for European public sector and regulated enterprises, with integrated office, chat, and video features.
- ONLYOFFICE: Open-source collaborative office suite used inside GoFAST but also sold standalone with document, spreadsheet, and presentation editors plus workspace/DMS features. Directly comparable in the collaboration and document editing layer; overlaps with CEO-Vision on feature set and open-source European positioning.
- BlueMind: French open-source sovereign messaging and collaboration platform. Directly comparable to GoFAST's sovereign positioning and a potential competitor as CEO-Vision launches GoFAST Mail into the French public-sector market.
- Alfresco: Enterprise content management platform whose open-source edition underpins GoFAST's document repository. Competes head-to-head in the ECM market; CEO-Vision's value-add is integration, but Alfresco also offers its own digital business platform.
- Nuxeo: Open-source content services platform for enterprise content management and digital asset management. Competes with Alfresco/GoFAST in regulated ECM use cases, with strong DAM and AI-driven content services capabilities.
Regional players
- Linagora: French open-source software company offering collaborative and sovereign messaging (LinShare, OpenPaaS) and AI solutions to public administrations. Regional French competitor with overlapping sovereign-collaboration value proposition.
Emerging players
- Open-Xchange: European provider of open-source productivity and communication software (OX App Suite including email, calendar, drive, docs). Comparable in serving ISPs, telcos, and European sovereign customers with bundled productivity apps.
