What Axido does

Axido is a French managed IT services provider (MSP) serving small and medium enterprises (PME) and mid-sized enterprises (ETI) across France through 14 local agencies. Founded in 1994 (per company history), the company operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Proxiteam group, which collectively employs 400 people. Axido's core value proposition combines proximity-based service delivery with a portfolio built primarily on the Microsoft ecosystem, supplemented by cybersecurity tools from WatchGuard, WithSecure, Veeam, and Neat (videoconferencing hardware). The company holds the ExpertCyber label from ANSSI / Cybermalveillance.gouv.fr and Microsoft Business Partner status, supporting 800 supervised servers, 12,000 user workstations, 15,000+ Microsoft 365 accounts, and over 500 protected businesses, with reported 99.95% average SLA availability.

Axido's product portfolio is organized around four pillars: managed IT services (Infogérance) covering server, network, and workstation administration; cloud services built on Microsoft Azure with Veeam Cloud Connect backup and disaster recovery; cybersecurity including penetration testing, EDR, SIEM, MFA, PAM, firewall management, incident response, Zero Trust architecture, and NIS 2 / DORA compliance support; and workplace collaboration anchored on Microsoft 365 (Teams, SharePoint, Exchange, OneDrive) including Microsoft Copilot and Copilot for Sales deployments. The cybersecurity portfolio is explicitly aligned with ANSSI and NIST frameworks and addresses regulatory regimes (RGPD, NIS 2, DORA) relevant to French PME/ETI buyers.

Axido generates revenue through recurring managed services contracts billed per seat or infrastructure scale, Microsoft 365 and Copilot license resale, project-based cloud migration and cybersecurity audit fees, and authorized hardware resale for HP, Lenovo, Ruckus, and Neat. The go-to-market is sales-led with an inside-sales overlay, using free IT audits, dedicated local account management via the MyProxiteam client portal, content marketing, local SEO, webinars, and the annual Proxiteam Day event. The company serves a horizontal market of French PME/ETI (10 to 250+ employees) with no named anchor customer concentration, and operates exclusively within France.
