BELWARE GmbH

What BELWARE GmbH does

BELWARE GmbH is a Dorsten, Germany-based software company specializing in extensions and add-ons for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (and its predecessor, Microsoft Dynamics NAV). The firm is a long-standing Microsoft partner, having operated in the Dynamics ecosystem since 2004, and produces the Connector 365 product suite, comprising 17+ proprietary applications that address document handling, PDF generation, e-invoicing (XRechnung), and integration with peripheral systems. Native integrations with STARFACE for CTI and Deutsche Post E-POSTBUSINESS for digital letter dispatch extend the platform beyond the ERP core. Distribution is conducted through Microsoft AppSource and through direct OnPrem downloads, allowing the firm to serve both cloud and on-premises Dynamics customers.

The product portfolio is engineered around the Business Central object model and is bundled with consulting and configuration services. Beyond standalone licensing, the company sells NAV-to-Business Central upgrade services, positioning it to capture migration revenue as Microsoft phases out legacy NAV. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; revenue mechanics combine recurring software licenses/subscriptions with project-based consulting, migration, and configuration work. The named customer evidence base (Godelmann, Eschwege, Grizzlyskin, Allgeier inovar) reflects a small-to-mid-market DACH customer footprint, with manufacturing and IT services verticals represented.

The business model is a niche-ISV model: low headcount (8 employees), GDPR compliance, and reliance on Microsoft's go-to-market channels for customer acquisition. There is no disclosed funding, no M&A activity, and no public-company reporting. The strategic posture is that of a steady specialist extension vendor, with growth prospects tied to the Dynamics 365 platform expansion, the NAV-to-BC migration tailwind, and the regulatory e-invoicing wave in Germany.
