Oxymel

What Oxymel does

Oxymel is a French IT services firm and software publisher founded in 1999 and headquartered in Le Vésinet, in the Paris suburbs (Île-de-France). The company employs between 11 and 50 people and has operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the ALTEIS Group since September 2009. Oxymel serves two product lines: Oxymelia, a web-based organizational chart and employee directory application, and Java/J2EE custom software development services delivered to enterprise and public-sector clients in France.

Oxymelia is the proprietary software product. It is a web-based application that allows organizations to build, visualize, and query their internal org structure and employee directory. The product is designed to integrate with existing identity systems, notably LDAP and Microsoft Active Directory, so that employee records, reporting lines, and contact details stay synchronized with HR master data. Versions through at least v3.1 have been released (latest documented: February 2008), and the product has been used as a deployable solution within French ministries, large agencies, regional authorities, and municipalities.

Beyond its software product, Oxymel operates a Java/J2EE software services practice that delivers custom development, integration, and application maintenance work. The customer base shown in the input is heavily French public-sector oriented, including national ministries (Ministry of Social Affairs and Health, Ofpra), major public agencies and utilities (SIAAP, Grand Port du Havre), regional and municipal governments (Conseil Régional du Centre, Ville de La Roche sur Yon, Poissy, Villebon sur Yvette, La Celle Saint Cloud), humanitarian organizations (Croix Rouge Française), education (Grenoble Ecole de Management), and media/private accounts (Le Parisien, Olympus France). Revenue is generated through a mix of software licenses/maintenance for Oxymelia and time-and-materials or fixed-price J2EE service contracts.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights3 records

Emerging players

• Personio: Personio is a European-focused all-in-one HR software platform for SMBs and mid-market — relevant as an adjacent European HR-tech player whose growing feature set (org chart, directory) competes with Oxymelia for the same French and European HR buyers.
• BambooHR: BambooHR provides HR software with employee directory and org-chart functionality aimed at small and mid-sized businesses — an emerging SaaS player whose accessible UX could draw budget away from specialized tools like Oxymelia.

Broad incumbents

• Workday: Workday is a leading enterprise HCM cloud suite that includes org-chart, directory, and worker-profile features — a broad incumbent whose expanding native functionality represents a competitive substitute for Oxymelia.
• Lucidchart: Lucidchart is a broad visual-collaboration platform that includes org-chart templates, data-linked diagrams, and HRIS integrations — overlapping with Oxymelia's org-chart capabilities as part of a much wider diagramming portfolio.
• Microsoft Viva: Microsoft Viva is an employee-experience platform integrated with Microsoft 365 that includes org-chart and profile-directory capabilities — a broad incumbent whose inclusion with existing Microsoft enterprise agreements pressures standalone directory tools.
• SAP SuccessFactors: SAP SuccessFactors is a global HCM suite with employee directory, org-chart visualization, and HRIS integration capabilities — a broad incumbent serving large enterprises and public-sector organizations comparable to Oxymel's customer base.

Direct peers

• OrgVue: OrgVue provides organizational design, modeling, and visualization software used by enterprises to plan and publish org structures and headcount scenarios — directly comparable to Oxymel's Oxymelia org-chart and directory product.
• MapYourOrg: MapYourOrg provides automated org-chart generation and employee-directory software, often used as a lightweight alternative to enterprise HCM suites — comparable to Oxymelia's core value proposition.
• Pingboard: Pingboard offers a SaaS employee directory and org-chart platform with profile management, search, and integrations to HRIS systems — closely aligned with Oxymelia's directory and org-chart functionality for mid-market and enterprise customers.
• ChartHop: ChartHop delivers people-data visualization, org charting, and workforce analytics, integrating with HRIS platforms — overlapping directly with Oxymelia's org-chart and directory use case, particularly for customers seeking richer analytics.
