IT service providers who establish themselves as trusted low-code partners now will be the ones their clients turn to as digitization pressure grows across every sector. The Ninox partner program gives you the platform, the training, and the go-to-market support to build that position, with up to 30% discounts on new business and renewals, solutions coaching, joint marketing campaigns, and a network of over 150 partners across 21 countries.
The core opportunity: low-code lets you deliver custom CRM, ERP, and BPM solutions in a fraction of the time traditional development requires. That speed-to-delivery is a direct margin advantage. And because Ninox is built to be adapted continuously, you don't just deliver a project and move on, you become the ongoing digital infrastructure partner for your clients, creating high loyalty and long-term recurring relationships.
If you're an IT service provider in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland looking to expand your portfolio with a platform your clients will actually keep using, the program was built for you.
The market opportunity
The low-code market is growing fast, and the IT service providers who move now will define the category in their regions. Gartner projects that by 2026, around three-quarters of all new applications will be built using low-code technologies. That's a fundamental shift in how businesses buy and build software, and it creates a significant opportunity for partners who can guide their clients through it.
Ninox launched its partner program in March 2023 and has since built a network of over 150 partners across 21 countries. Together, these partners are digitizing hundreds of companies and helping entire industries modernize their operations. Ninox provides the platform. Partners deliver the expertise, the industry knowledge, and the long-term client relationships that make implementations succeed.
What the program is built for
The Ninox partner program is designed for IT service providers who want to offer their clients modern, tailored digitization solutions without the overhead of building or maintaining their own platform.
With Ninox, partners can build and deliver a wide range of custom applications, CRM, ERP, BPM, and beyond, in a fraction of the time traditional development would require. And because Ninox is built to be adapted continuously, partners become the ongoing digital infrastructure partner for their clients.
Frank Böhmer, founder and CEO of Ninox, framed the opportunity directly: "Our platform enables our partners to offer individual solutions instead of standard software and to operate them permanently for their customers. This means high customer loyalty and long-term relationships in a dynamic market that will continue to grow driven by digitization efforts."
Why partners are central to Ninox's growth strategy
SMEs moving through digital transformation need more than software, they need guidance. They need someone who understands their industry, can translate their process challenges into a technical solution, and can support them as that solution evolves.
That's the role Ninox partners play. Tim Genkinger, Partner Manager at Ninox, explains the thinking: "In a rapidly growing SaaS and cloud market, medium-sized companies quickly lose track of things. That is why we have decided to place partnerships with IT service providers at the center of our sales strategy: they offer SMEs orientation and the necessary support to digitize processes."
Ninox is currently growing particularly strongly in the construction industry and the photovoltaic sector, two areas where partners with deep domain knowledge are turning platform capability into real client outcomes.
What partners get
The revised partner program is structured around partner profile and potential rather than a one-size tier system. New partners onboard through the Ninox Academy and receive individual coaching from the solutions team to build their first finished solutions. From there, the program scales into joint sales training, coordinated marketing campaigns, and shared outbound activities to reach new clients together.
Core benefits include up to 30% discount on new business and renewals, solutions coaching to develop the first two ready-to-deploy client solutions, access to the Ninox Academy for rapid onboarding, joint marketing and outbound campaign support, referrals matched to partner profile and specialty, and regular technical updates and direct support.
Partners also get access to the annual Ninox partner event, two days of knowledge sharing, panel discussions, exclusive product news, and direct connection with the broader partner network.
Sebastian Kalberg, managing director of DV digital vereinfacht GmbH and a Ninox partner, captures the practical upside: "Thanks to Ninox, as civil engineers, we can quickly and easily map and expand almost all requirements of a construction company in one system."
