What facts & figures does

facts & figures GmbH is a privately-held German IT services and software company headquartered in Neuss, founded in 1999, specializing in Microsoft infrastructure management with a particular focus on Active Directory, Exchange, and SharePoint environments. The company operates two core product lines: e2mod, a proprietary web-based management platform deployed on Azure that enables user lifecycle management, password self-service, permission administration, and group membership workflows across AD and Exchange environments without requiring schema modifications; and Migration Factory, a fixed-price migration service utilizing Quest Software tools and a proprietary PAVED methodology (Planning, Assessment, Validation, Execution, Documentation) that has supported over 100 completed migration projects ranging from hundreds to 100,000+ users. The company also offers Project Management Office (PMO) and program management consulting services for large-scale IT projects.

The company generates revenue through a combination of e2mod software licensing (subscription/recurring model hosted on Azure), fixed-price migration services, and professional services engagements. Its go-to-market is sales-led, targeting large German enterprises and EMEA customers, augmented by a Quest Software Platinum+ Partner channel relationship and Microsoft Gold Partner (Messaging, CSP Tier1) co-selling arrangements. Named customers include Commerzbank (70,000 users), Ford Motor Company, a major German bank, kdvz Rhein-Erft-Rur, and Brillen Rottler. Operating with a small team of 11-50 employees and reportedly 100+ years of combined project experience, facts & figures manages over 250,000 identities through e2mod as of 2020 and remains founder/management-owned with no disclosed external funding rounds.

Direct peers

• Cayosoft: Cayosoft provides Active Directory and Microsoft 365 management and recovery software with similar self-service, delegation and hybrid AD features, serving the same enterprise Microsoft-infrastructure buyer as facts & figures.
• Softerra: Softerra offers ADManager and LDAP Administrator products for Active Directory management and reporting, competing in the same Microsoft infrastructure administration niche as e2mod.
• Tools4ever: Tools4ever provides identity governance and administration (IGA) and user lifecycle management software including HelloID, overlapping with e2mod on self-service password reset, account provisioning and access workflows.
• Binary Tree (now part of Quest): Binary Tree historically specialized in Exchange, AD, SharePoint and Teams migrations — directly overlapping with facts & figures' Migration Factory service offering before being acquired into the Quest ecosystem.
• ManageEngine (ADManager Plus): ManageEngine's ADManager Plus is a directly competing web-based Active Directory management, reporting and workflow automation suite, targeting the same IT operations buyer with overlapping features around user lifecycle, group management and approval workflows.

Broad incumbents

• One Identity (Quest Software): One Identity (which houses Quest Software migration tools) is both a technology partner and a broader incumbent in identity governance and AD migration; its portfolio of tools overlaps directly with e2mod and Migration Factory at the platform level.
• Quest Software: Quest provides the underlying migration tools (e.g., On Demand Migration) that facts & figures wraps with services via its Platinum+ partnership; it represents both a critical channel partner and a potential substitute provider of similar migration capabilities.
• Microsoft (Entra ID / Azure AD native tooling): Microsoft itself is the platform incumbent whose native Entra ID, Azure AD and Exchange Online admin capabilities are the primary substitute for e2mod, and any tightening of Microsoft's partner program affects facts & figures' GTM motion.

Regional players

• Hornbillsecurity (ITSM-focused AD integrations): Hornbill is a UK-based ITSM provider with Active Directory self-service and workflow capabilities that overlap with e2mod's self-service portal, primarily serving the UK/EMEA market similar to facts & figures.

Emerging players

• Simego: Simego provides data integration and migration tools (e.g., for Exchange/Office 365), addressing similar hybrid infrastructure migration problems to Migration Factory though with a more software-led approach.
