After successfully separating from the Allgeier Group, Allgeier IT Services GmbH will now operate under a new name: AVENDIS GmbH

The name change is a deliberate step to continue our chosen path of growth with an independent, modern brand identity — with a clear focus on high-quality IT services “Made in Germany”.

What remains

For our customers and partners, one thing is most important: continuity and reliability. Therefore:

• Your usual service remains unchanged.
• Your contacts remain the same.
• Management stays on board.
• Our quality and security standards remain high.
• Existing service contracts remain valid.

Our commitment remains the same:

High-quality IT services, innovative solutions, and an excellent price-performance ratio.

openITCOCKPIT version 5.4.0 has been released! This is the first release of 2026 and it comes packed with many new features, including Patch Management, improved Wizards, and numerous bug fixes. The Prometheus Module is now included in the openITCOCKPIT Community Edition and is available to everyone for free. 🚀

Software inventory and patch management

The new Patch Management feature allows you to keep track of installed software and the current patch status of your hosts. It provides a central place to manage and monitor patch status, helping you keep your systems up-to-date and secure.

The data is collected by the openITCOCKPIT Monitoring Agent, so no additional software is required on the monitored hosts. Data collection is available for Windows, macOS and Linux in both Pull and Push modes.
