What Segment does
Segment ApS is a Danish IT services firm headquartered in Hvidovre that delivers Microsoft-centric consulting, custom software development, and IT training to Danish businesses of all sizes. Founded in 2008 by three IT administrators who continue to lead the company, Segment has operated as a Microsoft Partner since inception and currently holds Microsoft Solution Partner designations across Cloud, Data, Modern Work, and Security competencies, as well as Microsoft ISV (Independent Software Vendor) status.
The company operates three integrated business pillars. Its consulting arm provides advisory, implementation, project management, change management, troubleshooting, and managed support for Microsoft 365, Azure, Teams, SharePoint, Exchange, Windows Server, SQL Server, Intune, and Surface Hub, billed hourly, via fixed-price agreement, or via a prepaid 'klippekort' (block-hour) model. Its development arm produces proprietary 'M365 Apps by Segment' add-ins and custom solutions under the ISV arrangement. Its training arm delivers Microsoft-focused company courses across M365, Azure, Power Platform, Office, and developer tracks, and operates a Pearson VUE authorized test center administering certifications for Microsoft, AWS, Cisco, GIAC, PRMIA, VMware, and IAPP.
Distribution is direct to Danish enterprises, supplemented by an Arrow ECS reseller relationship for non-Microsoft courses and implementation partnerships with Keep IT (cloud backup) and Timengo DPG (secure email). The firm employs 11–50 staff at its Stamholmen headquarters, holds no disclosed outside funding, and was recognized as a 2021 Børsen Gazelle company for sustained revenue or headcount growth. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; revenue mechanics rest almost entirely on billable consultant days, training seat sales, and ancillary license and partner-product advisory fees.
