What Atixnet does

Atixnet is a privately held French IT services company founded in 2002 by Guillaume TOTOT and headquartered in Saint-Mandé, Île-de-France, with additional offices in Bordeaux, Lyon, and (historically) Lille. The firm operates as a full-service outsourced IT partner for French small, mid-sized, and large enterprises, offering managed IT infrastructure (infogérance), custom web application and site development on Symfony/PHP and Drupal stacks, cybersecurity services (EDR, antivirus, audits aligned with ANSSI recommendations), managed hosting on OVHcloud and AWS, IT project engineering, and digital communication services including email marketing and event IT solutions for congresses and conventions. With 40+ collaborators and an average tenure of five years, Atixnet reports managing 6,100+ workstations, 400+ servers, and 100+ deployed web applications across its client base.

The company's revenue model is anchored on recurring managed services subscriptions billed annually, supplemented by project-based professional services for web development, project engineering, and digital communication engagements priced per quote. Go-to-market is consultative direct sales through its three French offices, supported by partner referrals from ESET (Bronze partner), GLPI Network (Silver partner since 2024), OVHcloud, and AWS, plus inbound leads via website contact forms, email, and Typeform surveys. Distribution is exclusively domestic (France), with no disclosed international footprint.

Atixnet is founder-owned and remains independent, with no disclosed private equity, venture capital, or institutional investment, no acquisitions, and no public listing. Its core customer base spans small structures with personalized needs to large groups requiring demanding processes and high request volumes, with a particular vertical specialization in event IT for congress and convention organizers. The firm has prioritized stability and human-sized operations over rapid scaling, undergoing a deliberate organizational transformation ("Glow-Up") in 2023 and continuing to invest in certifications and partnerships to deepen its managed services capabilities rather than expanding into adjacent markets or product categories.
