Iteratio GmbH

What Iteratio GmbH does

Iteratio GmbH is a Cologne-based IT services firm founded in 2001 that specializes in IT infrastructure monitoring and management, with the Checkmk open-source monitoring platform as its central technology. The company positions itself as a vendor-independent provider serving both mid-market German Mittelstand companies and large enterprise customers (Großkonzerne) across industries including banking, automotive, energy, telecommunications, healthcare, and the public sector. Since 2010 Iteratio has built deep Checkmk expertise, becoming a Premium/Gold Partner of Checkmk GmbH (formerly tribe29 GmbH) in 2012, and has contributed custom checks that have been integrated into official Checkmk releases.

The company's offerings span the monitoring lifecycle: consulting and design, implementation, custom monitor development, training, remote managed operations, and Checkmk subscription resale. Service lines include Monitoring, Event Management, Service Level Management, Configuration Management, ITIL-compliant IT Process Management, and IT Operations. The Checkmk Starter Paket bundles a subscription with a 2-day workshop, and the company integrates Checkmk with adjacent tools such as Sakuli, NagVis, i-doit, Peregrine ServiceCenter, and Excel-based KPI reporting. With 5 employees and more than 100 directly managed Checkmk customers, the firm operates as a tightly focused specialist practice.

Iteratio generates revenue through professional services engagements, recurring Checkmk subscription resales as a Gold Partner, remote managed monitoring services, and training delivery. Sales is primarily direct and enterprise-led, supplemented by content marketing via the company website, participation in Checkmk conferences, and partner-driven referrals from Checkmk GmbH. The business is founder-owned, with three Managing Directors in place since 2001 and 2004, and operates without external funding or institutional investors.
