Comparison for SMEs

Excel or ZEROvia? It depends on the number of requests.

One request a year can be handled with a spreadsheet. At 12 to 15 requests, as surveyed SMEs report, every new spreadsheet becomes a copy of the last, and nobody knows which version the customer has.

Plainly put

When Excel is enough, and when it no longer is.

Excel is enough if

you are rarely asked.

  • one or two requests come in a year
  • only yes-or-no questions are asked
  • no customer asks for a carbon footprint or VSME report
  • one person answers everything

ZEROvia pays off when

several customers ask.

  • several customers request data every year
  • key figures and evidence are requested
  • a carbon footprint, VSME report or PCF per article becomes necessary
  • you want to release different information to each customer

The next request without copying.

Start with Free. When the questionnaires arrive, switch to Basis.

Switching

From spreadsheet to data record.

1

Register for free

Import company data from the register.

2

Do a baseline assessment

You see where you stand, with recommendations for each gap.

3

Upload next questionnaire

The AI suggests answers with sources; each answer stays available for the next request (from Basis).

4

Approve per customer

The customer only sees what you release for them.

Frequently asked questions

Is Free really free?
Yes, permanently: four baseline assessments, a profile for customers and approval per customer. You can try the full ESG self-assessment and the public profile for 30 days.
What do I do with my existing Excel answers?
Transfer them question by question into the knowledge base. This is worthwhile above all for very specific questions that only individual customers ask: you answer them once and reuse the answer. For everything else, store your documents; the AI reads invoices, certificates and policies and suggests values with sources (from Basis).
Can I still hand over an Excel file at the end?
Yes. The customer receives their questionnaire back in its original format, filled in from your data record (from Climate & Compliance Basis).
