SoleMove vs ErasmusJET: comparing Erasmus+ management platforms

ErasmusJET and SoleMove are both Erasmus+ management platforms used by European higher education institutions. This page compares the two based on publicly available information.

We have written this as neutrally as possible. We encourage you to demo both platforms and speak to current customers before making a decision.

Overview

ErasmusJET is a product of Alfa Mobilis, first released in 2009. It is a full-featured Erasmus+ application and management system available in both cloud-hosted and on-premise versions. ErasmusJET has EWP integration and also offers mobile apps for students and staff.

SoleMove is a student, staff, and placement mobility management platform developed by a Nordic team, built around European Erasmus+ workflows and full EWP API coverage. It operates as a cloud-based SaaS platform.

Key differences

Deployment options

ErasmusJET offers both a cloud-hosted version and a full on-premise installation. For institutions with IT policies that require data to be hosted on their own infrastructure, the on-premise option is a meaningful differentiator. SoleMove is a cloud-only SaaS platform — institutions that require on-premise deployment would need to evaluate ErasmusJET or other platforms that support it.

EWP integration

Both platforms support EWP. ErasmusJET operates its own EWP gateway, connecting institutions on the platform to the EWP network. SoleMove has full EWP API coverage built into the core platform. When evaluating either, ask specifically which APIs are live in production and how partner exchange is managed in practice.

Mobile applications

ErasmusJET provides iOS and Android apps for students and staff. SoleMove is web-based and optimised for mobile browsers but does not currently offer a dedicated native app. If a native mobile experience is a priority for your student-facing workflow, this is worth factoring into your evaluation.

Track record

ErasmusJET has been in the market since 2009 — a significantly longer track record than SoleMove. Institutions that prioritise platform maturity and a long history of Erasmus+ administration may find this relevant. SoleMove is a newer platform and brings a more modern architecture and interface.

Scope

Both platforms are focused specifically on Erasmus+ and international mobility management. Neither is a broad HE enterprise system, which means both are designed with IRO workflows at their core rather than being a module within a larger platform.

Which institutions tend to choose each?

ErasmusJET tends to appeal to institutions that require on-premise deployment, want a mobile app for students, or value a long-established product with a track record going back to 2009.

SoleMove tends to appeal to institutions that want a modern cloud platform, quick implementation, full EWP coverage, and direct support from a team with deep Erasmus+ expertise.

How to evaluate

To compare both platforms properly:

1. Clarify your deployment requirements — cloud vs. on-premise matters significantly here
2. Map the EWP APIs you need and confirm live coverage with each vendor
3. Request a demo from each focused on your actual workflows
4. Ask each vendor for references from institutions with similar mobility volume and type
