Sally is the right choice for companies in the German-speaking region that want to document meetings automatically while meeting high standards for data protection and security. With hosting in Germany, ISO certifications and deep CRM integration, it covers exactly those needs. Teams that need a permanently free plan or real-time transcription are better served elsewhere.
