What Green IT does

Green IT GmbH is a Munich-based IT system house (Systemhaus) founded in November 2022 that delivers managed IT services to German-speaking small and medium-sized enterprises (Mittelstand/KMU). Its offering is organized into three pillars: IT Security (managed firewall, email encryption, password management, network monitoring, security awareness training), Efficient Working (Microsoft Azure infrastructure, Microsoft 365 with full service, cloud telephony, managed WLAN, mobile device management, device-as-a-service), and Compliance (online backup, M365 backup, drive encryption, IT emergency planning, BSI-aligned security checks). The portfolio runs on a partner-led technology stack anchored by Microsoft, Sophos (Silver Partner), and Hornet Security (Silver Partner), with additional integrations from Lywand (automated security audits) and ITQ-Institut (security testing). All customer-facing capabilities are delivered as recurring monthly subscriptions with transparent fixed pricing, including an all-inclusive IT-Flatrate, pre-purchased service hour packages (IT Service Kontingente), and modular add-ons such as Managed Firewall, M365 Full Service, and Device-as-a-Service.

The company operates on a direct sales-led go-to-market, targeting SMEs that prefer outsourced IT over an internal IT department. Sales motions run through the company website, email, and phone with a free initial consultation, followed by subscription onboarding. Service delivery combines remote monitoring and ticket-based support (24/7 case reporting, business-hours response) with on-site intervention as required. The headquarters is in Munich at Joseph-Dollinger-Bogen 28, occupied since November 2022, and the team numbers approximately 14 people led by managing director (Geschäftsführer) Daniel Müller. The firm maintains affiliations with the Allianz für Cyber-Sicherheit network and an apparent corporate relationship with Vispiron, evidenced by the use of a vispiron.de email address for the data protection officer role, though no formal parent-subsidiary structure is disclosed.

Broad incumbents

• Computacenter: Pan-European IT infrastructure and managed services provider (publicly listed, multi-£bn revenue) with deep Microsoft, security, and workplace practices — overlaps almost completely with Green IT's service portfolio across enterprise and mid-market.
• Sopra Steria: Large European IT services group with significant German footprint offering managed services, cloud, and security to enterprise and public sector — a relevant but much larger reference point for the upper bound of Green IT's addressable market.
• CANCOM: Germany-headquartered (Munich-area) managed services and hybrid IT provider with strong Microsoft Azure and security focus — closest large-cap geographic peer to Green IT in the DACH market.
• Allgeier: German IT services group covering managed services, enterprise software, and staffing — a direct Systemhaus competitor with the same Mittelstand customer base Green IT targets.
• Bechtle: Germany's largest IT systemhaus (40,000+ employees, ~€6bn revenue) offering managed services, cloud, security, and workplace IT to mid-market and enterprise — a direct comparison set for Green IT's IT-Flatrate/Azure/M365/security stack, but at vastly greater scale.

Direct peers

• Netzlink Informationstechnik: German MSP/systemhaus (Braunschweig-headquartered) offering managed services, cloud, security, and IT consulting to mid-market — operates the same subscription-based managed services model Green IT is building.
• GOBIT: Munich-based regional IT systemhaus offering managed services, cloud (Microsoft), security, and workplace IT to Bavarian SMEs — almost identical customer, geography, and service mix to Green IT.
• SHD System-Haus-Dresden: German managed services and Microsoft-focused systemhaus serving mid-market customers with cloud, security, and workplace — comparable business model and portfolio to Green IT's IT-Flatrate + Azure + M365 + Security bundle.

Regional players

• AVM Computersysteme: Regional German IT services and systemhaus provider focused on SMEs with cloud, security, and managed workplace services — comparable in size and service breadth to Green IT, though operating in a different German region.

Others

• Hornetsecurity (as a partner-to-peer lens): While primarily a technology partner to Green IT, Hornetsecurity also operates a white-label MSP/managed security services business — useful as a comparable on service economics for security-as-a-subscription within the same German channel.
