ZaveIT AS is a Norwegian software innovator established to modernize the IT distribution and service management landscape. Based in Bjoneroa with additional offices in Oslo, the company positions itself as a strategic partner for the 'next-gen' Managed Service Provider. ZaveIT has quickly gained recognition for its focus on simplifying business complexity, recently receiving the official 'Made in Norway' origin label—a government-backed certification signifying high standards of innovation and ethical business practices. The company's vision is to provide an 'all-in-one' operational hub that allows IT firms to focus on customer relationships rather than administrative bottleneck, driving the transition from traditional product selling to 'anything-as-a-service' models.
The company was founded in 2021 by a team of industry veterans with a combined 60 years of experience in the IT sector. The core founding team includes CEO Lars Olav Habberstad, who previously served as the Founder and CEO of Purity, a prominent IT infrastructure company. He is joined by Christian A. Mathiesen as Chief Design Officer (CDO). The founders' background in running a successful MSP informed the creation of ZaveIT; they identified a massive gap in available tools for automating the 'business side' of IT services. Their early vision was to build a platform that they wish had existed during their own tenures in IT management, focusing on speed-to-market and removing the 'manual friction' from service delivery.
ZaveIT is a venture capital-backed company that successfully secured seed funding to fuel its initial platform development and market entry. In January 2023, the company closed an early-stage funding round led by TD Veen, a prominent Norwegian investment firm known for backing high-growth technology ventures. While specific dollar amounts for early rounds are often undisclosed, the investment has supported ZaveIT's expansion into a 13-person strong team and the development of its modular architecture. The company's stable financial backing has allowed it to pursue long-term product innovation, such as its complex 'Service Builder' and multi-tenant reseller capabilities, without compromising on security or infrastructure quality.
ZaveIT's offerings are categorized into several powerful modules that function as a unified ecosystem. The 'ZaveIT Core' is the foundational CRM and automation engine. Surrounding this are specialized modules: the 'Customer Portal' for white-labeled client self-service; the 'Webshop' for direct B2B sales; and the 'Partner Portal' for multi-tier distribution networks. Additionally, the company offers a 'MarketplaZe' which provides a ready-to-sell catalog of high-demand IT services, such as Microsoft 365 backup and vulnerability scanning. For technical management, they offer 'Backup Management' and 'Service Builder' tools, enabling MSPs to create customized SaaS packages that include multiple consumption variables like CPU, storage, and network usage.
While deeply rooted in the Nordic market, ZaveIT has global ambitions, leveraging its SaaS deployment model to serve IT providers worldwide. The platform is designed for international scalability, supporting multiple currencies (primarily EUR and NOK) and offering standardized B2B workflows that apply globally. The company has focused on regional expansion within Europe, participating in major tech events and webinars to attract MSPs from Germany, the UK, and the Benelux region. Their 'Made in Norway' branding is a key part of their international strategy, appealing to organizations that prioritize data privacy and high-quality software engineering standards common in Scandinavia.
In the last 12-18 months, ZaveIT has introduced several significant updates to enhance its automation capabilities. A major release included the 'New Webshop Module,' which improved the UI/UX for end customers and added flexible 'Embedded Shop' capabilities, allowing providers to place buy-buttons anywhere on the web. They also launched the 'Service Builder,' a highly advanced tool that allows Product Managers to mix internal ERP products with external distributor products into a single service bundle. Recent updates have also focused on 'Volume Pricing' logic, enabling providers to automate discount tiers based on purchase volume, and enhanced API access tokens to facilitate custom third-party integrations.
The culture at ZaveIT is driven by four core principles: Innovation, Simplicity, Transparency, and being a Trusted Partner. As a Norwegian company, they emphasize a flat organizational structure and a work environment that encourages 'loving the challenge' while maintaining clarity in decision-making. The company values simplicity, aiming to remove friction not just in their product but also in how they work internally. Transparency is a hallmark of their operations, manifesting in how they communicate release cycles and pricing to their user base. They foster an environment of continuous learning, which is reflected in their frequent production of webinars and educational content for the MSP community.
ZaveIT actively engages with the IT service provider community through various digital and physical channels. They maintain a robust blog that covers industry trends such as the 'ROI of CX' and technical guides like 'From Dude to MSP in 5 minutes.' The company hosts regular webinars and events to educate providers on digital transformation and automation strategies. They have established a presence on major software review platforms like Capterra and GetApp to gather user feedback and maintain a transparent dialogue with customers. Additionally, their newsletter provides monthly updates on new releases and customer success stories, fostering a sense of shared growth among their user base.
