nicos Group

KFW Banking Group

The network infrastructure set up and managed with nicos in 2013 at our more than 60 locations around the world was approaching the end of its life, so it was the perfect time to think about a future-proof solution.

Here too, nicos proved to be a reliable partner who took our requirements on board and developed an innovative solution. Once the order had been placed, a competent project team took over the entire migration, from configuration and shipping to managing the local service provider for the on-site conversion. The structured approach and the rapid response to unforeseen difficulties have confirmed to me that in nicos we have an innovative and reliable partner with highly committed employees at our side.

EMAG Group

The networking of our locations is essential for handling our business processes. EMAG's strategy for success lies in the fact that, as a medium-sized company, we react flexibly and with foresight to the needs of our customers. To do this, we need a scalable network that can adapt quickly and flexibly to new requirements.

In nicos, we have found a competent partner who reacts quickly and directly to new situations and ensures the availability of our network - with constant stability - worldwide.

Mubea Group

Mubea has 50 production, sales and development sites in all major countries. In order to be able to react quickly to customer requirements and developments in the automotive industry, we rely on a high-performance network that enables cross-location communication across all applications worldwide.

nicos has a broad partner network and was able to provide the appropriate transmission technologies with the required bandwidths to all global Mubea locations. The flexibility and solution-oriented approach during the project phase, as well as direct access to the Service Operation Center with short communication channels for the rapid implementation of changes, ensure our smooth business operations and contribute to customer satisfaction.

Hamburg South

At Hamburg Süd, customer orientation also means responding flexibly to our customers' wishes. This includes, among other things, making our transport capacities available when they are most needed. Short transit times and state-of-the-art reefer equipment, but also a network that ensures maximum availability and communication - even far from the coast - are indispensable for Hamburg Süd.

In nicos, we have found an innovative and efficient partner that we can rely on.

Gerresheimer AG

With nicos, we have found a partner who supports us in further developing our existing SD-WAN infrastructure in a flexible and future-proof manner. The switch from MPLS to Internet allows us to flexibly scale network capacities, reduce costs and continue to pursue our IT strategy.

By introducing centralized underlay management with monitoring tailored to our needs, we were able to secure our investment in the existing SD-WAN overlay solution and respond even more specifically to the needs of our global locations. This flexibility is crucial in order to remain competitive and successfully achieve our business objectives.

Dr. Oetker

Dr. Oetker GmbH has production and sales locations in more than 40 countries worldwide. By migrating from traditional MPLS connections to a modern SD-WAN infrastructure including local Internet breakouts and WAN optimization, we were able to increase the availability and performance of our corporate network and the satisfaction of our locations.

Whether own connections or lines provided by nicos, the network is almost completely in the hands of nicos with end-to-end responsibility.

The competence of the network experts, the partnership-based cooperation, the flexibility, especially for specific non-standard requirements, as well as an attractive price-performance ratio have convinced us in the long term.

ebmpapst

With over 20,000 products for practically every task in ventilation and drive technology, ebm-papst is the world's leading manufacturer of fans and motors. In addition to the continuous expansion of the product portfolio, not only the company but also our network has developed further. However, this has involved significant operating costs - both technically and economically. The time had come to create a globally standardized infrastructure that would allow applications to be introduced smoothly worldwide in the course of digitalization.

In nicos, we have found a managed services provider with more than 20 years of expertise that really understands the German SME sector. Working in partnership on an equal footing, nicos' competent network experts gained a detailed impression of our situation, recorded our requirements and implemented them in an innovative solution concept that precisely meets our specific needs. In doing so, nicos reacted flexibly to changing framework conditions and designed reliable alternatives.
