Cegid

What Cegid does

Cegid is a French-founded, privately held cloud business management software company established in 1983, headquartered in France with its Iberia regional headquarters in Madrid. The firm provides integrated SaaS solutions spanning ERP, human capital management, payroll, tax and accounting, electronic invoicing, point-of-sale, asset maintenance, and sector-specific vertical ERPs for construction, distribution, healthcare, manufacturing, and services. Its portfolio includes flagship platforms such as Cegid Ekon XRP (AI-augmented ERP for mid-market), Cegid HCM 360 and Cegid Peoplenet (HR and payroll, including for public administration), Cegid Tax Ultimate (tax control for mid-to-large enterprises), Cegid Despachos (360° solution for advisory firms), and the iOS-based POS suite Cegid Revo Xef, Cegid Revo Retail, Cegid Hotel3, Cegid Resta3, and Cegid Terven3. In October 2024, Cegid launched Cegid Pulse, an AI-powered platform layer providing scenario modeling, decision support, and process automation across the product suite.

Cegid serves a broad customer base of 500,000+ clients across 130+ countries, with operations in 20 countries and approximately 4,400 employees globally. Named enterprise and government customers include ACCIONA, Bimbo, Ford, Auxiliar Conservera, CCIB (Barcelona Chamber of Commerce), and the Ayuntamiento de Gijón, alongside the high-profile 2025 Comunidad de Madrid payroll and HR digitization contract covering 200,000+ public employees using Cegid Peoplenet. The Spanish legal entity, Cegid Spain, operates with 1-10 employees as a regional arm rather than a standalone business.

The revenue model is predominantly SaaS subscription-based, with recurring licensing across product tiers (SMB, mid-market, and enterprise) supplemented by professional services such as training through Cegid Academy Iberia, advisory firm support services, and compliance-oriented content. Distribution is hybrid: direct enterprise field sales for large accounts and public sector (evidenced by the Madrid deal and enterprise logos), a certified partner ecosystem with Partner Portal for mid-market channel distribution, and self-service online acquisition for autónomos and small businesses. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is structured on a quote basis. Cegid's strategic emphasis is on regulatory compliance (Spanish VeriFactu, Ley Crea y Crece, Ley Antifraude, mandatory digital time tracking) as both a defensive moat and a demand-generation lever, with AI capability layered atop the existing SaaS portfolio as the next growth vector.
