What plan2net does

Plan2net GmbH is an Austrian private web development agency founded in 2000 and headquartered in Vienna at Sieveringer Straße 37, 1190 Wien. Operating as an agile specialist, the firm delivers TYPO3-based content management implementations, E-commerce platforms, and web accessibility services to public institutions, universities, and enterprises, primarily across Austria and the DACH region. The company functions as a one-stop project partner covering strategy and conception, design, development, interface programming, quality assurance, training, support, and managed hosting, anchored by deep, multi-decade relationships with named clients including SCHRACK Technik, REWE Group's ADEG, KUONI/DER Touristik Suisse, and multiple Austrian universities (TU Wien, FH Salzburg, WU Wien, JKU Linz).

The technical stack is centered on the open-source TYPO3 enterprise CMS, supported by Apache Solr for search and Symfony as the PHP framework, with recent investments adding headless architecture using TYPO3 content APIs delivered to React-based frontends and Go-based search microservices. Implementation scale is demonstrated by the SCHRACK Technik e-commerce platform, which integrates TYPO3 with Magento to manage approximately 180,000 SKUs across 16 country instances and 14 languages. The firm has invested in WACA web accessibility certification capability (administered by TÜV Austria), automated quality assurance (test coverage of approximately 70% reported on the SCHRACK codebase), and proprietary tooling such as the sluggi TYPO3 extension (12,000+ downloads within six months).

Plan2net earns revenue primarily through project-based professional services engagements, complemented by recurring support, maintenance, and hosting contracts. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based, varying with project scope, complexity, and client requirements. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with brand awareness driven through content marketing (corporate blog), community engagement (TUGA, the TYPO3 User Group Austria, founded and hosted by the firm since 2004), and conference speaking (SymfonyCon Vienna 2024, TYPO3 Developer Days). The company holds a unique position in Austria as the first and only TYPO3 Gold Solution Partner and is a founding/Gold member of the TYPO3 Association. Ownership is concentrated: Sabina Loicht is sole shareholder and Managing Director (Geschäftsführerin) since founding, with Wolfgang Twaroch serving as Prokurist since February 2022.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Contentful GmbH: Established headless/composable CMS platform serving global enterprises with multilingual content needs — competes with plan2net's TYPO3-based enterprise offerings at the higher end of the market and shapes buyer expectations on decoupled architecture.

Emerging players

• Storyblok GmbH: Headless CMS platform targeting enterprise and mid-market content use cases — competes for the same re-platforming budgets as plan2net's headless TYPO3 engagements and represents the architectural alternative plan2net must position against.

Direct peers

• Sitegeist GmbH: Hamburg TYPO3 agency providing CMS, e-commerce, and web application development — directly comparable on TYPO3-centric delivery, agency-led services model, and DACH-region enterprise/public-sector customers.
• Netresearch GmbH & Co. KG: Germany-based TYPO3 and e-commerce agency with deep TYPO3 ecosystem involvement — comparable on enterprise web platform delivery, multi-language capabilities, and TYPO3 partner-tier positioning.
• Amedick & Sommer GmbH: Stuttgart TYPO3 agency with a similar project-based delivery model and focus on TYPO3 enterprise CMS implementations for German-speaking enterprise and public-sector clients.
• b13 GmbH: b13 is a long-established German TYPO3 agency based in Stuttgart and a founding member of the TYPO3 Association — directly comparable to plan2net on TYPO3 enterprise implementation, DACH focus, and ecosystem partner status.
• Pagemachine AG: TYPO3-specialist agency in Germany offering CMS, custom development, and e-commerce services — directly comparable as a TYPO3-first agency competing for similar DACH enterprise and mid-market projects.
• dkd Internet Service GmbH: Frankfurt-based TYPO3 Solution Partner offering enterprise CMS, e-commerce, and system integration — closely comparable to plan2net's combination of TYPO3 CMS work, multi-language sites, and B2B enterprise clients.

Others

• TYPO3 GmbH: The commercial entity behind the TYPO3 CMS, with which plan2net holds a Gold Solution Partner agreement — an ecosystem counterpart rather than a competitor, defining the platform on which plan2net's delivery model depends.

Regional players

• Werkraum GmbH: Austrian web/digital agency operating in the same Vienna market as plan2net with comparable B2B web services, though broader in scope and not TYPO3-specialized — a regional competitor for Austrian enterprise and public-sector contracts.
