Cure-IT

What Cure-IT does

Cure-IT AG is a privately held Swiss software services company headquartered in Zug, with a secondary office in the Olten region, organized as an Aktiengesellschaft under Swiss law. Founded in 2010 and operating with 11–50 employees, the firm delivers B2B services to both international enterprises and regional Swiss small and medium-sized businesses, focusing on the full software product lifecycle from initial idea through controlled retirement. It is structured around four specialized business divisions — Application Lifecycle Management, Application Development, Performance Improvement, and Know-How Sourcing (staff leasing and payrolling) — that operate under a unified Cure-IT group structure alongside two subsidiaries: Trivelop and the proprietary Upeto.com automation platform.

The company's delivery model is built on a Microsoft-centric technology stack, including Azure DevOps, Azure Functions, Microsoft Power Automate, Microsoft Azure, .NET, GitHub, HashiCorp, and Power BI, with cross-platform application development capabilities that allow a single backend codebase to serve computers, tablets, and smartphones. Its Upeto.com platform aggregates internally developed workflow automation tools that are designed to reduce repetitive manual tasks using rule-based "if-this-then-that" logic. Cure-IT differentiates through a proprietary internal training and rotation methodology, the "Know-How Circle / Ausbildungsspirale," in which engineers rotate across its four business units before being released as experts to client engagements, and through direct recruitment from Swiss universities and universities of applied sciences.

Cure-IT monetizes through two primary streams: professional services for end-to-end software development and lifecycle management, and managed services in the form of payrolling and staff leasing in which placed engineers remain on Cure-IT's payroll while working at client sites. The company holds SQS process certification, is a member of Swissstaffing (the Swiss staffing industry association), and is part of the Microsoft Partner Network, all of which underpin its eligibility and credibility for regulated personnel leasing in Switzerland. Growth has been self-financed (eigenfinanziertes Wachstum) with no disclosed external funding, investors, or M&A activity, and the firm operates exclusively within Switzerland with no claimed international footprint.

• Trivadis (Accenture): Originally a Swiss data and software services firm, now part of Accenture. Comparable on Swiss enterprise services and Microsoft/Data Platform expertise, but operates at substantially greater scale and as part of a global consulting portfolio.
• Swisscom (IT Services): Dominant Swiss telecom with a large enterprise IT services arm providing application development, cloud, and managed services. Comparable on Swiss enterprise custom-software delivery, but Cure-IT is more focused on SME and selective enterprise deals.
