Plandisc is a Danish-originated circular annual planner (the world's first digital take on the cyclical/rolling planner format) founded in 2012 and headquartered at Axel Kiers Vej 5A, 8270 Højbjerg (the Aarhus suburb), Denmark. Co-founder Torben Stigaard serves as Managing Director. The product visualises annual planning as a disc divided into colour-coded rings representing departments, responsibilities, teams, or target groups, and is widely adopted in Danish and broader Nordic education, marketing, finance, and public-sector teams. Originally a school planning tool, Plandisc expanded across industries and was acquired by Visma Group (Norway), the same Nordic software conglomerate that owns Teamleader (Belgium, audited earlier in this directory).
For an EU-sovereignty audit Plandisc inherits the Visma ownership pattern. The operating entity is Danish, all customer data is hosted on Visma Private Cloud (explicitly an EU-owned data centre in Sweden) and the company carries Grant Thornton ISAE 3000 and GDPR 2024 attestation badges; Denmark and Sweden are both EU members with full GDPR coverage and no SCC requirements for cross-border transfers within the EEA. The complication is one layer up: Visma's group cap table includes Hg, Cinven, TPG (US), GIC, and Intermediate Capital Group, so beneath the Norwegian-owned Visma wrapper there is meaningful US-PE exposure that procurement-grade buyers should understand. The data is EU-hosted with ISAE 3000 attestation, but the ownership chain does not meet a zero-US-PE threshold.
Pricing is enterprise / volume-negotiated; specific tiers were not captured at audit. Best fit: Danish and Nordic schools, associations, marketing teams, and finance departments that want a unique visual planning tool with EU-only hosting and ISAE 3000 attestation, and accept Visma Group as the corporate counter-party. Procurement-grade EU-only buyers requiring an ownership chain with zero US-PE involvement should look at Stackfield or MeisterTask in the same category.
