Zirkel Technologies GmbH and Dataciders GmbH have entered into a strategic partnership. The aim is to combine Zirkel Technologies' consulting and implementation expertise in enterprise applications and industrial processes with Dataciders' data and AI expertise - supporting Mittelstand companies end-to-end, from the ERP foundation through to data-driven decisions.
Zirkel Technologies has operated since 2016 as a vendor-neutral consulting and implementation house for SAP, Salesforce, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 in the industrial Mittelstand - with sector focus on mechanical and plant engineering, metal processing, steel and metal trading, and the paper and chemical industries.
Dataciders is the market leader for Data & AI in the German-speaking region and supports companies through their AI transformation. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Data & AI and one of the few global Microsoft Fabric Featured Partners, Dataciders has proven expertise in implementing and operating modern data and AI architectures on Microsoft Azure and Fabric.
The combination creates a continuous service offering: Zirkel provides the process foundation in the core systems of industry. Dataciders adds the data and AI layer on Microsoft Fabric, Purview, Power BI, and Copilot - from data governance to predictive analytics.
One partnership, one delivery path: Kapil Gupta (Zirkel Technologies, left) and Herbert Pataky (Dataciders, right) - from ERP foundation to data-driven decisions, delivered end-to-end.
"In many Mittelstand projects, AI fails not because of the technology, but because of the foundation - inconsistent processes and system landscapes that have grown over years. That is exactly where our work begins: vendor-neutral, process-driven, and close to our customers' industrial reality. With Dataciders, we gain a partner whose data and AI depth builds directly on this foundation - turning clean processes into decisions you can actually rely on.” Kapil Gupta · Managing Director, Zirkel Technologies GmbH
"As partners we are an ideal fit: Zirkel Technologies and Dataciders together cover the full path - from the process foundation through to data-driven decisions. What unites us is a shared standard: speed in execution and genuine proximity to our customers.” Herbert Pataky · Partner at Dataciders and Head of AI Initiatives
For customers, the partnership means one delivery path instead of two: a single team carrying responsibility from ERP rollout through to the data platform, governance, and AI - without handover gaps between providers.
