Be1Eye

What Be1Eye does

Be1Eye GmbH is a privately held SAP Business One implementation partner headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, founded in 2014 by co-CEOs Leif Holst and Jan Neumann. The company targets German mid-sized enterprises (mittelständische Unternehmen) and delivers end-to-end SAP Business One deployment, customization, and ongoing support, with a stated philosophy of "Partnerschaft auf Augenhöhe" (partnership on equal terms) emphasizing direct customer access and consultative selling. Its core services include ERP implementation consulting, system setup, data migration, and process optimization, supplemented by free SAP Check-up consultations and a Hamburg-based SAP Business One Roadshow event.

The company generates revenue from three streams: (1) SAP Business One implementation consulting on a project/professional services basis, (2) licensing and sale of its proprietary Clever!Suite add-on products (Clever!DMS, Clever!Dunning, Clever!Salary, Clever!Use, Clever!Scan, and the more recent Clever!WebSuite modular web platform built on .NET and APIs for the SAP Business One Web Client) as recurring revenue, and (3) ongoing support and maintenance contracts. Beyond first-party add-ons, Be1Eye distributes third-party SAP Business One extensions from partners including Kendox, Coresuite, Boyum IT, ShipXpert, bob Systemlösungen, and SAP Customer Checkout, creating a portfolio play around the SAP Business One install base.

The go-to-market motion is enterprise field sales focused on the German Mittelstand, with marketing conducted through a blog, newsletter, LinkedIn/XING presence, customer reference videos, and the Unite & Grow partner network (the largest SAP Business One partner association in Germany). With 11-50 employees, the company operates a lean organizational structure with both co-founders directly engaged in customer delivery and product development. The company is founder-owned, has no disclosed external funding, and is geographically concentrated in Germany.

Direct peers

• All for One Group: One of the largest SAP consulting and implementation partners in the DACH region, focused on mid-sized companies. Both All for One and Be1Eye deliver SAP Business One implementation, customization, and managed services for the German Mittelstand, competing head-to-head for the same customer segment.
• KUMAVISION AG: Specialized SAP Business One partner serving small and mid-sized enterprises in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. KUMAVISION offers implementation, industry-specific extensions, and managed services that directly overlap with Be1Eye's Clever!Suite-style proprietary add-ons.
• SIEVERS-SOHN GmbH & Co. KG: Hamburg-based SAP Business One partner with deep roots in the Northern German Mittelstand, offering implementation, consulting, and add-on distribution. Direct regional competitor in Be1Eye's Hamburg home market for the same customer profile.
• oraise GmbH: German SAP consulting firm that delivers SAP S/4HANA and SAP Business One projects for mid-sized companies. Comparable consulting-led business model focused on enterprise-application services in the DACH mid-market.
• macio GmbH: Bavaria-based SAP consulting and software development partner serving German mid-market customers, with practices spanning S/4HANA and Business One. Comparable professional-services business model with custom development complementary to Be1Eye's Clever!Suite approach.

Others
