oneVcard vs. Spreadly

oneVcard 91 /100
Spreadly 88 /100

Both host exclusively in Germany, both are ISO 27001 certified, both provide a data processing agreement (DPA) under Art. 28 GDPR. oneVcard hosts in an ISO 27001 certified data center in Nürnberg for this; development and operations are located entirely in Germany, with no transfer to third countries.

Spreadly (Spreadly GmbH, Baierbrunn near München, founded in 2022) stores customer data, according to the provider, at Hetzner in Germany (CDN/edge via Bunny, among others) and is certified to ISO 27001:2022. In the overall rating, oneVcard leads narrowly with 91 out of 100 points ahead of Spreadly with 88 points.

The lead is real but slim; it is not decided by GDPR but by price, breadth of features, depth of integration and market reach. Anyone looking for a "Made in Germany" solution does nothing fundamentally wrong with either provider.

Verdict

oneVcard wins this very close comparison by 91 to 88 points, not through a single knockout advantage but through the sum of small leads. On price, oneVcard relies on a transparent EUR structure with a permanently free Lite plan, whereas Spreadly's Professional plan only reaches its advertised best price with a three-year commitment.

On breadth of features, oneVcard scores with a dedicated email signature management as a standalone product, including an officially certified Outlook/Microsoft 365 add-in and HR-based field population. Spreadly does likewise offer centralized email signatures, but documents no classic device MDM.

On integrations, both are broadly positioned: oneVcard lists more than 20 connectors (Entra ID/Azure AD, Google Workspace, SAP, Personio, BambooHR, Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho, Dynamics 365, PipeDrive, Make.com, Zapier, among others) plus an open REST API in the Enterprise plan; Spreadly covers, in addition to the common CRM systems, more than 50 HR tools and likewise offers a public API. What tips the balance here is less the number of connectors than the depth: oneVcard adds a dedicated email signature management that Spreadly does not document in this form.

Add to that market reach: oneVcard points to more than 850 companies in DACH/EU, while Spreadly, as a younger provider (since 2022), is still building up. On enterprise provisioning, by contrast, the two are practically on par; SSO (SAML 2.0), Entra ID/Azure AD, Google Workspace, SCIM-like automatic user provisioning and bulk import are present in both.

In fairness it must be noted: on independent user reviews, Spreadly now has external ratings (G2 4.8/5, Trustpilot 3.8/5, OMR 4.6/5, averaging around 4.4), though the number of reviews is still modest; oneVcard continues to show hardly any public platform ratings. Bottom line: for privacy-conscious German teams that want dedicated signature management, oneVcard is the somewhat more rounded choice.

Anyone who already requires ISO 27001 hosting at Hetzner and can do without dedicated signature management will find in Spreadly a serious and likewise fully GDPR-compliant challenger.

Comparison FAQ

Are oneVcard and Spreadly both GDPR-compliant and ISO 27001 certified?

Yes, both meet a high data protection standard. oneVcard hosts in an ISO 27001 certified data center in Nürnberg and develops exclusively in Germany with no transfer to third countries, provides a data processing agreement (DPA) under Art. 28 GDPR on request, and relies on 2FA, daily backups, regular penetration tests and an external data protection officer (Prof. Dr. Eberhard Schott). Spreadly is certified to ISO 27001:2022, stores customer data, according to the provider, at Hetzner in Germany (CDN/edge via Bunny, among others), likewise provides a data processing agreement (DPA), and encrypts via TLS 1.3 and AES-256.

In the pure GDPR category the two are very close together; oneVcard leads this rating narrowly with 94 out of 100 points.

Why does oneVcard win despite the very close race?

The gap of 91 to 88 points results from several small advantages. oneVcard delivers a dedicated email signature management with a certified Outlook add-in and points to more than 850 companies in DACH/EU. Spreadly covers an at least equally broad integration landscape (common CRM systems plus more than 50 HR tools and a public API), but is more narrowly positioned in terms of documented market reach.

Where does Spreadly have real advantages over oneVcard?

Spreadly is a fully competitive ISO 27001 provider, likewise hosted in Germany, with a generous free plan, transparent EUR pricing, German-language phone support and purchase by invoice, attractive for the German Mittelstand. On enterprise provisioning (SSO, SCIM, bulk import via Azure AD/Google Workspace, HRIS connection to Personio and BambooHR), Spreadly is in no way inferior to oneVcard.

On independent user reviews, Spreadly now has external ratings (G2 4.8/5, Trustpilot 3.8/5, OMR 4.6/5), albeit with a still modest number of reviews; oneVcard here continues to have hardly any public platform ratings.

Do both providers support SSO, Azure AD/Entra ID and automatic user provisioning?

Yes. Both offer single sign-on via SAML 2.0 as well as connection to Microsoft Entra ID/Azure AD and Google Workspace. oneVcard supports automatic, SCIM-like user provisioning via Entra ID or HR sync; Spreadly offers SCIM and bulk provisioning via CSV, Azure AD and Google Workspace.

On- and offboarding can be managed centrally through the identity and HR systems in both cases. An SLA of 99.5% is reserved for the Enterprise plan in both.
