What Curanet does

Curanet is a Danish white-label cloud and IT infrastructure provider founded in 2002 and headquartered in Skanderborg, Denmark, operating as a subsidiary of the European IT conglomerate team.blue. The company runs a B2B2B reseller-only model, recruiting IT consultancies, web agencies, e-commerce agencies, and hosting startups to brand, price, and resell Curanet's infrastructure under their own names. Its reseller base exceeds 1,000 active partners (over 1,100 after the April 2025 acquisition of Cloud Factory's IaaS business), serving Danish SMB end customers with web hosting, domains, webshops, cloud servers, Microsoft 365, security, and managed services.

Curanet's technology stack is built on VMware-based virtualized infrastructure hosted across 7 ISO 27001-certified, CO2-neutral Danish data centers, with redundant 10 Gbit fiber connections (TDC and Telia), diesel generator backup, and more than 15,000 virtual machines in production. The product portfolio spans four pillars: Hosting and E-commerce (web hosting, domain registration, HostedShop webshop, OnPay payment gateway, compliance tooling); Cloud and Infrastructure (Private Cloud, Shared Cloud, Cloud Server, VPS, Kubernetes, Storage, GPU-as-a-Service); Security (SentinelOne endpoint protection, Veeam and IBM Storage Protect backup, Firewall-as-a-Service, SSL, hosted spam filter); and Managed Services (Service and Operations Agreements in Basis, Standard, and Full tiers). A reseller control panel and a four-API suite (DNS, Mail, Customer, Order) support partner automation and self-service.

The business model is built on recurring subscription revenue from reseller infrastructure consumption plus per-server managed services fees, augmented by webshop tier subscriptions and transaction-based payment gateway revenue. Resellers set their own end-customer prices, bill their customers directly, and are billed by Curanet with no minimum purchase requirements or binding periods. Curanet monetizes through differentiated value-added services, including free 24/7/365 support (with a 12-second call-answer target), VMware Premier Service Provider status, and ISO 27001, ISAE 3402, and PCI DSS Level 1 certifications that resellers leverage in their own sales motions. Geographic scope is exclusively Denmark.

Revenue model

1. Reseller Subscription & Infrastructure Services: Curanet provides cloud and IT infrastructure (web hosting, domains, cloud servers, VPS, Kubernetes, storage, backup, security) that resellers purchase and resell to their own end customers under their own brand. Resellers set their own prices and invoice their customers. Curanet generates recurring subscription revenue from the reseller base, which includes 25+ hosted solutions. The company had over 1,000 resellers as of 2020, and after acquiring Cloud Factory's IaaS business in April 2025, added ~100 more resellers representing a double-digit million DKK business volume.
2. Managed Services & Professional Services: Curanet offers Service & Operations Agreements (Basis, Standard, Full) where resellers pay a per-server flat rate for managed hosting services including monitoring, OS management, middleware, and antivirus. Additional managed add-ons include backup management, firewall administration, and SentinelOne endpoint protection management. Revenue is recurring per server per month.
3. Webshop / E-commerce Platform (HostedShop): Curanet resells a white-label webshop platform (HostedShop) in four tiers (Start-Up, Growth, Advance, Success) priced by monthly order volume. Resellers purchase at wholesale rates and resell to SMB end customers. Transaction-based and subscription-based revenue depending on tier.

Broad incumbents

• Amazon Web Services: Global cloud hyperscaler offering the full IaaS/PaaS stack; sets the competitive ceiling for cloud infrastructure, partner economics, and SMB migrations that affect Curanet's reseller demand.
• OVHcloud: Major European hyperscale cloud and hosting provider with broad web hosting, VPS, and IaaS offerings; competes for the same SMB reseller and hosting workloads, especially with EU data residency positioning.
• Microsoft Azure: Global cloud hyperscaler with extensive partner/white-label programs; directly relevant because Curanet resells Microsoft 365 and competes with Azure for the same Danish SMB workloads.
• Hetzner: Large European hosting and cloud provider offering dedicated servers, VPS, and cloud infrastructure at competitive prices across many markets; competes indirectly via price benchmarking.

Direct peers

• CloudNordic: Danish cloud and hosting provider serving SMBs in Denmark with comparable cloud and infrastructure offerings; competes for the same local reseller and direct SMB customers.
• One.com: European SMB-focused hosting, domain, and website builder provider; comparable in targeting small businesses with bundled web presence solutions across the Nordics.
• DanDomain: Danish domain registration and webshop platform, also under team.blue; competes most directly with Curanet's HostedShop webshop and payment gateway offerings.
• Surftown: Established Danish web hosting company targeting SMBs with web hosting, domains, and email services; overlapping product set and customer segment.
• Zitcom: Danish hosting and domain brand within the team.blue group; directly comparable in product breadth (hosting, domains, webshop) and Danish SMB focus.
• ScanNet: Sister company under the team.blue group, also a Danish hosting and infrastructure provider; overlapping IT solutions and SMB customer base make it the closest peer despite being a corporate sibling.
