In Europe everyone uses RAL, not Pantone, for selecting paint colours, though I'm not sure about exact differences between those colour systems.

RAL has some serious coverage gaps. Classic RAL has crummy oranges and pinks, for example (though they did recently fill a major gap with HN-orange-ish, it's not in my deck, so it may as well not exist!). Design D2 is much, much better, but still not really adequate in many areas that Pantone does cover.

But RAL is definitely the better choice for anything but printing... if it has your color (colour?).

Germany also has HKS [1], which is irrelevant on a global scale but fairly popular for domestic printed media.
