Eramba review
A broad ERM platform with a free self-hosted edition and paid enterprise options.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Eramba is an open-source governance, risk and compliance platform for organizations managing risks, controls, policies, compliance frameworks and reviews. Its coverage includes asset, third-party and business risk management, customizable inherent and residual risk scoring, treatment mapping, scheduled reviews and reporting. The product fits small, mid-market and enterprise organizations that need broad ERM coverage, particularly teams considering self-hosted software or a paid hosted option.
Pricing is structured around three plans. Community is an open and free version for self-hosted deployment. Enterprise On-Premise starts at €2,500 per year, billed annually, and includes unlimited users and data, all modules and email support. Enterprise SaaS starts at €5,000 per year, billed annually, with hosting by Eramba, unlimited users and data, managed updates and backups, and cloud hosting in Europe or the USA. The paid tiers therefore add enterprise deployment choices and operational support around the platform.
Eramba’s strongest functional area is breadth: risk treatment can map to controls, policies, exceptions and projects, while custom fields, module relationships, dynamic statuses, notifications, webhooks and report filters support structured workflows. REST API access, Slack, Microsoft Teams and Jira integrations extend its platform fit. Buyers should consider the Community edition carefully if notifications and reporting are central requirements, since those features have documented limitations there. Teams seeking broad coverage and control over deployment should shortlist Eramba; organizations wanting only a narrow risk workflow may prefer a more focused tool.
