What Vertixo does

Vertixo B.V. is a Dutch managed infrastructure services provider headquartered in Arnhem, Netherlands, founded in 2007 as a sole proprietorship and incorporated as a B.V. in 2011. The company delivers connectivity, network, security, and cloud services to enterprises and mid-market companies with mission-critical infrastructure needs, including payment service providers (Buckaroo), healthcare SaaS vendors (Questio Software), and security/monitoring firms (Alarm Meldnet). Its full portfolio spans business and datacenter connectivity, BGP/MPLS routing, managed dark fiber, MDR with 24/7 SOC, DDoS protection, managed firewall/IPS, colocation, and KVM-based hybrid cloud / IaaS, organized under the sub-brands VXbits (network) and VX Panel (customer portal). Operations are entirely Netherlands-based and the company maintains ISO 27001:2013 and NEN 7510:2017 certifications.

Vertixo's technical foundation is its proprietary VXbits autonomous network (AS59545), operated as a RIPE NCC member enabling direct IP address allocation. The stack combines BGP routing, MPLS, KVM virtualization, dark fiber, and DWDM, layered with proprietary security tooling including an automated DDoS scrubbing pipeline, a Honey Cluster Blacklist for proactive threat intelligence, an in-line IPS, and a SIEM-backed SOC offering traffic analysis with deep packet inspection. The company is fully independent of large international carriers and emphasizes open-source software foundations to eliminate vendor lock-in.

Vertixo operates a sales-led, direct, consultative go-to-market with custom-engineered (maatwerk) solutions and 24/7 engineering support. Revenue is generated primarily through recurring managed infrastructure subscriptions, usage-based IaaS, and professional services/consulting. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is tailored per customer. Distribution is exclusively direct — no resellers or channel partners — and the company serves a single domestic geography (Netherlands). The company has no external institutional investment disclosed, is privately held, and operates with a small (1–10 employee) team led by founder-owners and a CTO appointed in August 2025.
