thiwico IT-Systemhaus e.K.
IT infrastructure for education.
School platforms, workstations and networks belong together. We help schools, school authorities, municipalities and education providers plan, introduce and administer their IT.
Our areas of expertise
IServ · baramundi
School platforms, software deployment and endpoint administration.
LANCOM / R&S · Fortinet
Site networks, wireless access and controlled connections.
For education
IT for different educational settings.
The way your organisation works shapes its IT requirements. We consider technology, usage and responsibilities together, from individual teaching rooms to multiple sites.
Schools
Sign-in, applications and devices need to support teaching. We align the school platform, endpoint management, networks and Apple MDM with existing equipment and everyday school tasks.
School Authorities & Municipalities
Several institutions bring different systems and responsibilities together. We support technical assessment, clear standards, a practical deployment sequence and preparation for ongoing operations.
Education Providers
Changing courses and learners need suitable workstation configurations, software and access. We support the technical preparation and ongoing maintenance of the learning environment.
Our services
Technology for teaching and everyday operations
With IServ and baramundi, we support school platforms and endpoints. For networks, Wi-Fi and secure connections, we work with LANCOM/R&S and Fortinet; Relution supports Apple device management. Servers, virtualisation and backups complete the infrastructure.
IServ · baramundi
System & Client Management
User accounts, school platforms and workstations need to work together in everyday use. We set up IServ and manage endpoints with baramundi, from the initial assessment and software deployment to ongoing administration.
LANCOM / R&S · Fortinet
Networks, Wi-Fi & Security
From classroom access points to connections between sites, we plan, install and maintain networks for schools and education providers. Wired networks, Wi-Fi, access rules and central management are considered together.
Apple Mobile Device Management
iPads and other Apple devices need the right apps, settings and administrative responsibilities. With Relution, we support central device management, from preparation and enrolment to changes during everyday use.
IT Security
A firewall needs to fit your organisation’s services, networks and access requirements. LANCOM/R&S and Fortinet are our partners for networking and security. The systems we use depend on the existing environment, requirements and agreed support.
Servers & Virtualisation
School platforms, applications and file storage need a suitable technical foundation. We plan and maintain server and virtualisation environments around existing services, resources and ongoing operational needs.
Backups & Operations
Backups need to fit your organisation's data, systems and working practices. We help plan, configure and maintain backups while considering how recovery should work if a disruption occurs.
LogoDIDACT: plan the next step
SBE is ending development of LogoDIDACT 4.0 on 31 December 2026 and offers existing licence holders an extension with security updates and support until 30 June 2027. We help you review the applicable conditions and plan the transition to IServ. Separate arrangements apply to Berlin.
