About us
The best IT decisions
don't happen by chance.
The right solution was only found after months of searching — and then only by chance.

„
It cannot be that the best solution is only found by chance.
Carsten Hochschon, Founder & CEO, knooing GmbH
This insight came from more than 20 years of experience in the IT industry.
What drives us
Three convictions. One platform.
Transparency over control
You can only steer what you can see. Full visibility across the IT landscape is not optional — it is the prerequisite for everything else.
Data beats gut feeling
20 years in IT have shown: the best solution is found by chance because the data foundation is missing. We built knooing so that foundation is always there.
Depth over breadth
knooing does not do everything. The focus is on IT transparency and cost control — deep enough to genuinely help. No noise, no superfluous modules.
