About Dennis

IT Consultant from the Münsterland region with over 14 years of experience in IT support for small and medium-sized enterprises.

My focus:
Microsoft 365, Windows Server environments, and IT Security.
I plan, migrate, and operate IT infrastructures that work in everyday life and withstand audits.
What I specifically do:
  • M365 migrations and tenant setups
  • Server and virtualization environments with VMware or Hyper-V
  • Backup concepts and implementation with Veeam & HornetSecurity
  • Network security (using SonicWall and UniFi, among others)
  • NIS2 consulting for SMEs
I have been working for an IT service provider in the Münsterland region since 2011, supporting clients from production, logistics, crafts, and the SME sector. I understand the problems that arise in established IT environments and know how to solve them without major project drama.

If you need someone for a specific project who knows their stuff and delivers, get in touch.
