What CleverIT does

CleverIT B.V. is a Dutch managed IT services provider founded in 2001 and headquartered in Eindhoven, Netherlands. The company delivers a private cloud-based Windows workspace product called WerkplekOveral from its own ISO 27001-certified data centers in Utrecht and Amsterdam, bundling cloud-hosted Windows desktops, business applications, telephony (CleverPhone), thin-client hardware (CleverClients), two-factor authentication, and 24/7 managed support into a single fixed-price subscription. As a Microsoft Qualified Multitenant Hoster (QMTH), CleverIT can host Office 365 ProPlus, Project Online Professional, and Visio Pro in its private cloud — a capability relatively few Dutch providers hold.

The company serves more than 500 mid-market customers with 30 to 1,000 employees, concentrated in the Netherlands and segmented across seven verticals: accountants, financial services, wholesale, installation and construction, notaries, manufacturing, and real estate management. Go-to-market is consultative direct enterprise sales complemented by the company website, published customer success stories, and referral-driven relationships; there is no reseller or channel partner network. The team consists of approximately 20–25 IT professionals with low reported turnover and recognized as a Top 20 talent developer in the Netherlands by SatisAction.

CleverIT generates revenue through subscription-based managed IT services (WerkplekOveral recurring contracts), hardware sales (laptops, networking equipment, CleverClients), VoIP telephony subscriptions, and one-time professional services for migration and implementation. The business is privately held, self-funded, and has been operating profitably with sustained growth; it has been ISO 27001 certified since 2017 and undergoes annual ISAE 3402 Type II audits since 2019, with stated annual revenue around €5 million.
