DNN delivers Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Applications, SAP Business All-in-One with application support and consulting, and a broad Microsoft solutions portfolio including Office 365, Teams, Azure, EMS, Hyper-V, System Center, SharePoint, Skype for Business, Exchange, Directory Services, and Dynamics 365.

Operational security services include a Managed Security Operations Centre (SOC) with SIEM and unified threat management, a managed Network Operations Centre (NOC), Virtual CISO offerings, and penetration testing.

The business model combines professional services and consulting revenue with hardware and software supply, enterprise software implementation and support (subscription and recurring revenue), and managed services retainers under multi-year contracts. Pricing is custom and quote-based across all engagements. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales executed directly via the corporate website, phone (+27 10 592 0093), and email ([email protected]), with verticalized messaging and industry-specific solutions.
