France note
Axonaut is itself on the DGFiP list of registered plateformes agréées (registration issued 8 January 2026), and it says e-invoicing is included at no extra cost. Its feature list does not mention building-specific tools such as works-price libraries, so check it covers your quoting needs.
EBP Bâtiment
Tier S · Published pricesDevis, factures et chantiers pour le bâtiment, par EBP (groupe Cegid)
EBP Bâtiment is the building-trade range of EBP, a French business-software publisher based in Gazeran that joined the Cegid group in July 2024. It comes in three editions (ACTIV, PRO and ELITE) covering quotes, invoices, progress billing, worksite tracking and a mobile app, with PRO and ELITE adding planning, stock and purchasing. EBP integrates the plateforme agréée Shine for French e-invoicing.
Pros
- + Three editions, from 1-user ACTIV to multi-company ELITE
- + Situations de travaux, progress invoices and métré built in
- + Plateforme agréée Shine integrated for e-invoicing
- + Published monthly prices for ACTIV and PRO
Cons
- − Batiprix and Batichiffrage libraries are bought separately from their publishers
- − Published prices cover one user; multi-user versions are on quote
- − ELITE is quote-only
- − Worksite planning, stock and purchasing need PRO or above
France note
EBP says its building range complies with the French e-invoicing reform through the integrated plateforme agréée Shine, which is on the DGFiP list of registered platforms. If you price from a works library, budget separately for Batiprix or Batichiffrage, which EBP connects to but does not supply.
