What Infographix does

InfoGraphix (SAS InfoGraphix) is a French IT services and software distribution company founded in May 2009 in Saint-Etienne, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, specializing in the graphic industries and architecture sectors. The company is the exclusive distributor for RagTime business publishing software across France and French-speaking countries (Pays Francophones) — a relationship it has held since 2009 and which traces back to the founders' previous company COGID (1988). Its product portfolio spans exclusive and reseller agreements for RagTime, Archicad (BIM, Studio and Collaborate subscription tiers), BIMoffice, Adobe Creative Cloud, Kerio Connect and Kerio Control, plus architecture tools such as SketchUp Pro, Rhino 3D, Artlantis, and MacDraft. The company also resells Apple hardware as an Apple Authorized Reseller (status obtained in 2023) and HP refurbished workstations.

The business operates as a vertically-focused multi-product reseller and managed services provider rather than a unified SaaS platform. Five revenue streams feed the model: software distribution (licensing and royalties), hardware sales (Apple and HP), cloud and managed services (proprietary Igraphix data center since 2023, Kerio Connect hosted email at €8 HT/month/account), training (Qualiopi-certified since December 2021, registration 82 42 02159), and IT support/consulting (TeamViewer-based remote assistance plus on-site service). Pricing is primarily per-seat subscription (e.g., Archicad Studio from €1,160 HT for a 3-year term; Adobe Creative Cloud €378–€882 HT/account/year) or perpetual license (BIMoffice, RagTime updates).

Go-to-market is sales-led with direct customer relationships via phone, email, and in-person consultations, supported by a single Saint-Etienne headquarters. National coverage in France is achieved through FRP2I federation membership (since 2018, 200+ independent resellers). Customer segments are mid-market architecture firms and SMB graphic-design/printing studios. Leadership consists of three co-founders — Pascal SANGLARD (President since January 2020), Ludovic PREDAL, and Pascal CONSEILLON — reinforced by two technical team members (Antoine, 2019; Paul, 2021). FY2023 disclosed revenue was €1.7M with no external institutional investment.
