What PROXSYS* does

Proxsys BV is a Dutch combined Managed Service Provider (MSP) and Internet Service Provider (ISP) headquartered in Gorinchem, Netherlands, with an additional office in Rotterdam. Founded in 2001 by Martin Klop and Olaf van Oord, the company delivers integrated IT management to 250+ customers across the MKB+ (mid-market SMB), non-profit, semi-government, and housing corporation segments in West-Netherlands, managing 11,000+ workspaces and 3,000+ network connections with a team of 105+ specialists. The platform architecture is organized around five core service pillars — Workspaces (digital workplace), Connectivity (WAN/LAN via Cisco and KPN), Cloud Services (Private Cloud, Azure, on-premises, SaaS), Cybersecurity (24/7 SOC, IAM, backup, endpoint, network, compliance), and Support/Service — with add-on modules including Keeper Enterprise password management, Microsoft 365 and Copilot adoption services, and Pentest-as-a-Service.

Proxsys generates revenue primarily through subscription-based managed services contracts billed annually, with quote-based pricing tailored to organizational size and requirements. Go-to-market is sales-led via dedicated account managers and inside sales advisory, supplemented by a partner/reseller channel with Microsoft, Cisco, VMware, HP, and KPN, and supported by content marketing, sector knowledge sessions, and event presence. The customer base reports a 96% retention rate and a +65 NPS score, reflecting long-tenured relationships anchored by ISAE 3000 Type II, ISO 9001, ISO 27001, and ISO 14001 certifications.

In March 2026, Proxsys was acquired by Odin Groep and became part of Previder, gaining access to broader expertise and cross-sell opportunities with sister entity Cloudwise while continuing to operate under the Proxsys brand. Day-to-day leadership has transitioned from the original founders to CEO Eef Gorter and the management team, with Erik Loef serving as CTO and Martin de Graaf as CISO. The company is positioning Microsoft Copilot and AI agent governance as a forward growth vector, primarily through deployment and adoption services rather than proprietary AI development.

• Macaw: Macaw is a Dutch digital and managed-services provider with combined Microsoft/cloud, data and security capabilities for mid-market and enterprise customers. It competes with Proxsys on integrated workplace, cloud and managed-security offerings in the Netherlands.
• Previder: Previder is the Odin Groep subsidiary that has absorbed Proxsys (March 2026 acquisition) and provides comparable managed services, cloud hosting and datacenter services to Dutch mid-market and enterprise customers. It is the closest structural peer given shared ownership, overlapping portfolio (managed workspaces, cloud, security) and co-located go-to-market focus on West-Netherlands.
• Wortell: Wortell is a Dutch mid-market MSP and Microsoft-focused cloud partner providing managed Microsoft 365, Azure, security and adoption services. It overlaps directly with Proxsys's workspace, Microsoft Copilot adoption and managed-security offerings for the same MKB+ buyer profile in the Netherlands.
• PQR: PQR is a Dutch IT managed-services and consulting firm with comparable mid-market focus on virtualization, workspaces, cloud and Microsoft platforms. It competes with Proxsys for similar CIO/IT-manager buyers in the Dutch MKB+ and public-sector segments.
• Northwave: Northwave is a Dutch cybersecurity services specialist offering managed SOC, incident response and security advisory to mid-market clients. It competes head-to-head with Proxsys's 24/7 SOC, Pentest-as-a-Service and cybersecurity pillar for security-conscious Dutch buyers.
• InSpark: InSpark is a Dutch Microsoft-focused cloud and managed-services provider delivering Microsoft 365, Azure and security services to mid-market organizations. It is comparable to Proxsys in scale, partner model and the Microsoft-centric value proposition for Dutch MKB+ customers.

Broad incumbents

• Axians: Axians is the ICT brand of VINCI Energies operating across the Netherlands with a broader portfolio spanning networks, cloud, data centers and managed services.

• Cegeka: Cegeka is a Benelux-headquartered IT services provider with multi-cloud, managed services and security offerings serving enterprise and mid-market customers. It overlaps with Proxsys's cloud and managed-security offerings but at a larger scale and with broader geographic reach.
• KPN: KPN is the incumbent Dutch telecommunications and IT services provider offering connectivity, cloud hosting and managed workplace services. It is comparable to Proxsys through KPN's ISP arm (Proxsys is a KPN channel partner) and its enterprise managed-services and security portfolio, though it operates at vastly larger scale.
