The synergies are clear: more powerful hosting solutions, enhanced cybersecurity services and an expanded team of IT specialists. Customers benefit from an even more stable, secure and future-proof infrastructure - with the highest data protection and compliance standards.
Stronger together: more performance, more safety, more innovation
Herbst Datentechnik GmbH has established itself as a reliable hosting partner for medium-sized companies over the last 25 years. Its team of 15 experts develops customized cloud and hosting solutions with a special focus on scalable application platforms and high-performance IT infrastructures. The company relies exclusively on modern technologies hosted in Germany and meets the highest security requirements - certified in accordance with ISO 27001.
The integration of these strengths into synaforce's existing portfolio will result in high-performance, secure and sustainable solutions that are specifically tailored to the requirements of companies. The acquisition brings tangible benefits for customers of both companies:
- Extended IT security solutions: synaforce customers gain access to Herbst's specialized hosting services.
- Maximum data protection and compliance standards: Highly secure data centers with certifications such as BSI C5 and ISO 27001.
- More powerful hosting infrastructure: scalable solutions for growing requirements.
- Enhanced customer service and support: A larger team of experts for individual IT requirements.
Strategic importance: An important step for the future
For synaforce, this acquisition not only means a technological gain, but also a geographical expansion. With the new location in Berlin, the company is strengthening its presence in Germany and expanding its capacities for customers nationwide.
CEO Andreas Braidt explains: “synaforce continues to grow - with a strong partner who is a perfect fit for us! Our customers benefit from an even broader range of services, sustainable IT solutions and an expanded team of experienced experts.”
Christoph Reitinger, Head of M&A at synaforce, also emphasizes the strategic importance: “With this acquisition, we are strengthening our position as a leading provider of managed cloud services. The combination of hosting expertise and the highest security standards ideally complements our portfolio.”
Herbst Datentechnik remains as a brand and team for the moment
An important aspect of the takeover: In the first phase Herbst Datentechnik will remain an independent company and brand. Managing Directors Patrick Herbst and Marco Wolfrum will continue to play a central role and drive the growth strategy forward together with synaforce. In addition, Helga Krüger will remain on board as Senior Advisor to actively shape the future development.
Patrick Herbst, Managing Director of Herbst Datentechnik GmbH, sees great potential in the collaboration: “Our hosting expertise ideally complements synaforce's portfolio. At the same time, our customers gain access to an even more powerful and secure IT infrastructure.”
A merger with added value
The acquisition of Herbst Datentechnik GmbH by synaforce is a logical step in the growth strategy of both companies. Customers will benefit from a stronger infrastructure, high-performance hosting services and even greater security. Together, synaforce and Herbst Datentechnik are setting new standards for managed cloud services and hosting - innovative, secure and sustainable.
