What Deal Informatique does

Deal Informatique SAS, operating as DEAL SOFTWARE and rebranded under Groupe DEAL in 2022, is a French vertical ERP software publisher founded in 1983 and headquartered in Pessac (Gradignan area), France. The company designs and develops modular, open-API ERP solutions targeting three primary verticals: construction and project-based businesses (DEAL.BMS), agricultural cooperatives and grain traders (DEAL.AGRI), and multi-entity financial management (DEAL.FINANCES), with DEAL.PLANILOG providing constraint-based industrial scheduling. The portfolio is complemented by DEAL.Analytics (BI dashboards using Qlik, Power BI, MyReport), DEAL.Workspace (unified portal), Rapport Chantier DEAL (construction site reporting), and SRCI (e-invoicing compliance for France's September 2026 mandate). Technology architecture is API-first with web services enabling integration into customer ecosystems including SAP, Sage, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Excel. Both SaaS (cloud-hosted in France) and on-premise perpetual-license deployment models are offered, with native UBL e-invoicing compliance and certified PDP partner integrations.

The company is privately held under Groupe TSS, a conglomerate of B2B software publishers, and was acquired in 2015 by current President Yves Laurisse and Strategic Director David Godenne, who refocused the business on vertical SaaS. In January 2021, the company divested its Bacchus wine/spirits solution to iD Systemes Group to concentrate on its four core lines, and in February 2022 unified with subsidiary Planilog under the Groupe DEAL brand. Revenue is generated through three streams: annual/multi-year SaaS subscriptions, perpetual on-premise licenses with optional maintenance, and professional services for implementation, configuration, and training. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales with dedicated product consultants, a channel partner network across Africa, Switzerland, and Belgium, and content-led demand generation through blog, LinkedIn, YouTube, and webinars. Disclosed financial scale includes €6M in revenue (2021 figure) and 75 collaborators cited in the same period, with firmographic headcount stated at 101-250 and 20,000+ users across deployments. Marquee customers include Disneyland Paris, Air France, Bouygues Immobilier, Bombardier, Egis, Fayat, MSA, Eureden, CAVAC, and Terres de l'Ouest, spanning ETI and large enterprise segments across construction, aviation, entertainment, agriculture, and social protection.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• SAP (Business One / S/4HANA): Global ERP incumbent with named API integration into DEAL.AGRI. Represents both a partner and the primary competitive threat for enterprise accounts scaling beyond DEAL's footprint.
• Sage: Global accounting and ERP vendor with strong installed base among French SMBs and mid-market firms. Competes head-on in DEAL.FINANCES territory and is a named integration partner, indicating overlapping customer environments.
• Microsoft Dynamics 365: Microsoft's ERP/CRM cloud suite widely used in French enterprises. Like SAP, a named integration partner and a structural competitor for any customer standardizing on the Microsoft stack.

Direct peers

• Cegid: French cloud ERP, finance, HR, and retail software vendor serving mid-market and large enterprises. Most direct domestic competitor to DEAL in finance/ERP for French ETIs, with overlapping multi-entity and compliance capabilities.
• EBP: French SMB-focused ERP, accounting, and payroll software publisher with deep French regulatory localization. Closest SMB-tier domestic peer and frequent alternative in DEAL's evaluation cycles.
• Infor: Industry-specific ERP vendor with vertical suites (construction, distribution, manufacturing). Closest international peer on the vertical-ERP thesis that underpins DEAL's differentiation strategy.
• Isagri: French software publisher specialized in agricultural cooperatives, crop management, and agribusiness accounting. Directly comparable to DEAL.AGRI in target customer, vertical functionality, and channel motion.
• Everwin: French ERP/CRM vendor focused on service firms and ETIs with field operations. Comparable in target segment (French mid-market) and overlapping in project-based and service-billing workflows.

Emerging players

• Odoo: Open-source, modular ERP/CRM with strong French roots and aggressive SMB pricing. Represents the cloud-native, low-cost competitive pressure that could erode DEAL's lower-end accounts over time.
• Pennylane: French cloud-native accounting and financial management platform with strong PDP positioning for the 2026 e-invoicing mandate. Emerging threat specifically in DEAL.FINANCES' mid-market sweet spot.
