What Hosted.nl does

Hosted B.V. (operating as Hosted.nl) is a Dutch managed service provider headquartered in Arnhem, Netherlands, founded in 2006 as Hosted and serving primarily small and medium-sized businesses (MKB/SMB) with a horizontal segmentation strategy. The company delivers an integrated portfolio spanning four pillars: managed IT workplaces (IAM365 Werkplek, Werkplekbeheer, hardware procurement), cloud and productivity (Microsoft 365, Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Copilot, private cloud infrastructure hosted on Dutch soil), cybersecurity (Managed Detection & Response, Endpoint Detection & Response, Threat Defense 365, penetration testing, phishing simulation, Security Officer-as-a-Service), and business connectivity (VoIP telephony, Starlink satellite internet, T-Mobile mobile, fiber, managed WiFi, and enterprise printing). It serves 1,000+ business customers (with marketing materials citing 10,000), holds ISO 27001 and NEN 7510 certifications, and is a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider with an official Microsoft Copilot specialization.

The underlying technology stack is anchored in the Microsoft ecosystem (Azure, Microsoft 365, Teams, Copilot), supplemented by Fortinet firewalls, Ubiquiti networking, Kyocera printing, and SpaceX Starlink satellite connectivity. Proprietary service offerings include IAM365 Werkplek (a fully managed modern workplace), Thread Defense 365 (24/7 SOC monitoring of Microsoft 365 environments including dark web and Shadow IT detection), AI-driven phishing simulations with personalized learning paths, and a private cloud platform operated on Dutch soil. Cybersecurity tooling is augmented by a Security Operations Center delivering MDR, EDR, and incident response, with certifications including CISSP, LPT, and CEH held within the technical team.

The business model is a hybrid of recurring managed services and transaction/license resale. Managed IT services (workplace, cloud management, cybersecurity, 24/7 support) and Microsoft 365 subscription resale (€4.99-€22.99/month per user) form the recurring revenue backbone, supplemented by hardware sales (HP, Dell, Lenovo, Fortinet, Ubiquiti), professional services (consulting, migration, implementation), and enterprise hosting. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales with personalized consulting and quote requests for mid-market accounts, alongside a direct-to-consumer e-commerce channel (bestel.hosted.nl) for SMB self-service Microsoft 365 purchases. Distribution is exclusively domestic (Netherlands), with channel partnerships including Microsoft, Kyocera, T-Mobile, SpaceX/Starlink, and the Samen Digitaal Veilig NIS2 initiative. Hosted operates as part of a group of MSP labels including sister company Techone and sister web-hosting brand Qweb.
