About us
Soft & Cloud is one of Europe’s leading providers of Microsoft software licences. We specialise in reintroducing Microsoft licences into the market from remarketing and verified corporate stock. In doing so, we rely on audit-compliant original licences, TÜV-certified transfer processes and significant potential for savings compared to purchasing new licences.
Today, we operate with around 50 employees in Germany, Italy, Spain and France, with our head office in Münster and an office in Munich. With a strong private equity partner at our side, we are continuing to grow, both in the licensing business and with our IT procurement services.
Thanks to this focus, we were recognised by the Financial Times in 2021 as one of Europe’s fastest-growing companies. Our flat hierarchies and numerous benefits prove us right: since 2023, our staff have voted us one of the most popular employers in the DACH region every year at the kununu Top Company Awards. Furthermore, since 2023, we have been recognised annually by the German Institute for Innovation in Sustainability and Digitalisation (DIND) as an ‘Employer of the Future’.
