What TRUE does

TrueFullstaq is a Dutch cloud native managed services and consultancy provider headquartered in Amsterdam, founded in 2000 and operating as part of The Digital Neighborhood consortium. The company delivers a portfolio spanning managed cloud infrastructure (Public, Private, Hybrid, and Sovereign Cloud), managed Kubernetes (including a Managed Azure Kubernetes Service, a Talos Linux-powered platform, Kubernetes at the Edge, and air-gapped Kubernetes bootstrapping via Zarf), professional consultancy (cloud adoption and migration, container and Kubernetes adoption, DevOps processes, microservices architecture, interim engineering, security audits), and Kubernetes training. Its core technology focus is Kubernetes, container orchestration, and hybrid/multi-cloud architectures, with a stated differentiator of being the first Kubernetes-certified organization in the Netherlands.

The customer base skews to large Dutch enterprises across regulated and consumer-facing verticals — including ABN AMRO, ASML, Albert Heijn, Bol.com, NS, TenneT, Jumbo, and Vida XL — alongside mid-market and SMB accounts such as Adchieve, BG-Engineering, and SWIS. TrueFullstaq sells primarily through direct enterprise sales and consultancy-led engagements on a quote-based, multi-year contract model, with no publicly disclosed pricing or standardized tiers. Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring managed services subscriptions, professional consultancy, and training.

The firm holds ISO 27001, ISO 9001, NEN 7510, ISAE 3402 Type II, and SNA-keurmerk certifications, positioning it for regulated Dutch workloads. Its GTM is content-driven (blog, events, webinars) combined with direct outbound to enterprise buyers, and it operates within a single-country (Netherlands) distribution footprint serving Western Europe. The company is privately held, with 101–250 employees and no disclosed external funding or revenue figures.
