CS2000

What CS2000 does

CS2000 (Computer Service 2000 und Vertriebs GmbH) is a German private limited company (GmbH) founded in 1992 and headquartered in Seelze, in the Hannover metropolitan region of Lower Saxony. The company operates as a regional value-added reseller and IT services provider for small and mid-sized businesses and public-sector buyers in the Hannover area. It is led by Managing Director Heike Köhler.

The company's core offering combines hardware resale and IT services. On the hardware side, CS2000 is an authorized DELL partner and also distributes Lexmark printing devices and Huawei networking and endpoint equipment. On the services side, the company delivers IT support and integration work for its regional client base. The firm maintains a sister company, WITstor GmbH, which operates alongside CS2000 and is positioned for enterprise IT services — together the two entities cover both the SMB/reseller tier and a higher-end enterprise services tier within the same regional market.

Commercially, CS2000 generates revenue through traditional reseller margins on hardware sales (DELL, Lexmark, Huawei) and from service fees tied to IT support, deployment, and integration engagements. The go-to-market is local and relationship-driven, with no evidence of multi-region sales, channel partnerships beyond vendor authorizations, or recurring managed-services contracts at scale. There are no disclosed revenue figures, funding events, patents, certifications, or AI-related capabilities in the available data, indicating a small, mature, locally-scoped operation whose investment profile is best characterized as a stable regional services business rather than a scaling technology platform.

Broad incumbents

• ALSO Group: One of Europe's largest IT distribution and services groups, offering hardware, software, cloud, and logistics services across many countries. Overlaps with CS2000's branded hardware distribution business but at vastly larger scale and across a much broader portfolio and geography.
• Computacenter plc: UK-headquartered, pan-European provider of IT infrastructure and workplace technology services to enterprise and public sector clients. Comparable in target customers (corporate IT, public sector) but operates at significantly greater scale and with a much broader service catalogue than CS2000.
• CANCOM SE: Major German IT services and solution provider offering managed services, cloud, and hybrid IT infrastructure to mid-market and enterprise customers. Adjacent to CS2000's IT services offering via WITstor, but at much larger scale and with proprietary managed-service capabilities.

Direct peers

• Bluechip Computer AG: German IT distributor and system house selling own-brand and third-party PCs, servers, and IT services to SMBs and public sector clients. Closely matches CS2000's combined hardware resale plus assembly and service positioning within the German Mittelstand.
• MR Datentechnik Vertriebs- und Service GmbH: Smaller German regional IT reseller offering hardware, software, and IT services to SMBs in the Hannover and Lower Saxony area. Closely comparable to CS2000 in scale, geography, customer segment, and the combined hardware-plus-services proposition.
• Bechtle AG: Germany's largest IT system house and one of Europe's leading IT resellers, selling hardware, software, and IT services to businesses and public sector clients. Closely matches CS2000's combined hardware-plus-service business model, though at vastly greater scale across many regions.
• Tarox AG: German IT system house headquartered in the Nordrhein-Westfalen region, selling branded and custom-built servers, PCs, and storage alongside IT services to mid-market customers. Mirrors CS2000's profile as a regional German IT system house with both resale and assembly activities.
• Wortmann AG: German IT reseller and manufacturer of the Terra brand, offering PCs, servers, notebooks, and IT services to SMBs and the Mittelstand. Highly comparable to CS2000's focus on custom-assembled and branded business hardware for German SMEs, including an in-house production capability.
• Siewert & Kau Distribution GmbH: German value-added IT distributor focused on SMB and retail resellers, with a portfolio spanning hardware, peripherals, and software. Comparable to CS2000's mix of branded hardware distribution (DELL, Lexmark, HUAWEI) and IT services, though operating at a larger, multi-country scale.

Others

• ITscope GmbH: B2B IT distribution and sourcing platform used by German and European resellers, system houses, and managed service providers. Ecosystem partner to companies like CS2000 rather than a direct competitor, enabling product sourcing, pricing, and procurement across IT hardware vendors.
