Business Services

Maximum billability. Peace of mind for your organization.

In the business services sector, time is the most valuable asset. Your partners, consultants, and lawyers must be able to bill for their time. Every minute lost to slow IT, glitchy systems, or complicated login procedures is a direct cost and a source of frustration for your clients.

DATAGROUP takes end-to-end responsibility for your entire digital work environment—from the hybrid workplace to the security of highly sensitive client files. We untangle the complexity and provide a stable foundation that simply works. So your professionals can focus entirely on clients, projects, and billable hours.

DATAGROUP combines personal commitment, short lines of communication, and the reliability of a trusted partner in Eindhoven with the scale, financial stability, and superior cloud quality of a European IT leader. With our modular CORBOX portfolio, we make IT simple again.

IT’s that simple.

The Digital Reality of Professional Services

The pressure to work more efficiently, attract top talent, and secure client data with airtight protection is enormous. But in practice, professional service providers often run into the same digital barriers.

Friction in hybrid work and DEX frustration: Consultants and interim managers are constantly working on-site at client locations, at home, or on the go. Faulty connections (VPN), slow access to files, and complex login procedures hinder the “Digital Employee Experience” (DEX). This leads to immediate frustration and lost productivity.
Information silos & manual administration: Valuable data (client information, project hours, contracts) is often locked away in various, unlinked SaaS applications and time-tracking systems. The lack of smart integrations leads to manual work and valuable time lost to administrative tasks instead of billable work.
Strict Data Sovereignty & Compliance Requirements: Lawyers, accountants, and consultants work with highly sensitive intellectual property and financial audits. Blindly storing this data in U.S. public clouds poses a major risk due to privacy legislation (GDPR) and regulatory oversight (such as the AFM). There is a pressing need for demonstrable data sovereignty.
24/7 Cyber Threats & Reputational Damage: Business service providers are a prime target for ransomware due to the strategic value of their data (such as merger plans or lawsuits). A data breach or ransomware attack results in immediate, irreparable reputational damage. However, mid-sized firms often lack the scale to set up a fully-fledged, certified 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) on their own.

At DATAGROUP, we believe that IT should accelerate your organization, not slow it down. You need a seamless workplace for your people and absolute security for your client data. We eliminate IT noise and provide a stable foundation so your professionals can excel without interruption.

Our expertise in business services

We believe that IT should take the burden off your professionals. We don’t offer standard packages, but rather modular solutions that precisely meet the needs of your firm.

The “frictionless” hybrid workplace: We set up a fast, stable, and professional digital workplace that works just as quickly and intuitively on every device (laptop, tablet, smartphone). With proactive monitoring (DEM), we resolve IT issues before they even affect your employees, ensuring they remain productive wherever they are.
Sovereign cloud solutions (CORCloud): We bridge the gap between flexibility and security. With our ISO 27001- and BSI C5-certified private cloud data centers, your valuable client data remains physically and legally within European borders. This way, we guarantee data sovereignty and eliminate the risks of vendor lock-in.
Smart Application & DMS Integration: We break down information silos. We integrate your specific time tracking, CRM, and Document Management Systems (such as iManage or NetDocuments) into a single, seamless whole. This prevents duplicate data entry, accelerates your workflows, and minimizes non-billable administrative time.
24/7 Supply Chain Security & SOC Monitoring: We bring the capabilities of an internationally operating, certified Cyber Defense Center to your organization. With CORSecurity, we monitor your networks, endpoints, and cloud environments 24/7 for anomalies and ransomware threats to proactively prevent data breaches and reputational damage.

A partner that connects partners, IT management, and professionals

In the business services sector, IT must integrate seamlessly with the professionals’ workflow, the CISO’s security requirements, and the partnership’s profitability. We provide the connection so that every level maintains control over risks, performance, and billable hours.

For management and partners: You want IT to be a reliable driver of productivity, scalability, and talent retention. We translate complex IT issues into clear, manageable choices and ensure control over risks, compliance, and budgets. This allows you to focus on the partnership’s profitability with confidence.
For the IT & Information Manager: Your job is to streamline information flows and prevent shadow IT, but you’re overwhelmed by ad-hoc support requests. We take the operational pressure off, integrate your SaaS applications, and ensure smooth management. This gives you back control so you can focus on innovation and process optimization.
For the professional and consultant: You simply want to help your clients as best as possible, without glitchy systems or administrative red tape distracting you from your work. We ensure that your digital workspace functions flawlessly anywhere and anytime. With practical DigiCoaching, we help you work with confidence, enjoyment, and maximum billability.

CORBOX: IT as a Product

For many business service providers, IT has become a crucial factor for success, but at the same time, it has also become a complex challenge. A proliferation of SaaS applications, the need to secure highly sensitive client data, and the pressure to remain billable often make IT management costly and difficult to predict.

With CORBOX , DATAGROUP makes IT services simple, transparent, and scalable. Instead of traditional custom solutions, the CORBOX portfolio consists of standardized and modular IT services with clear service descriptions and fixed quality levels. You simply choose the building blocks that align with the goals of your housing association and tenants. All modules are fully integrated, mutually compatible, and flexibly scalable.

Within the CORBOX portfolio, four strategic pillars are embedded as standard in every service: CORSecurity, CORCloud, CORCompliance, and CORIntelligence. This creates a modern IT environment in which security, flexibility, compliance, and intelligent automation are built in from the ground up.

DATAGROUP - IT’s that simple.
