Lazar Soft, a fast-growing IT and cybersecurity expert

Écrit le

Founded in 2021 and based just outside Montpellier in Le Crès, Lazar Soft supports IT departments, small and medium-sized businesses, local governments, and IT service providers in their efforts to modernize, secure, and optimize their digital infrastructures. The company has demonstrated steady growth and is building its reputation well beyond the Hérault territory.

A pure player specializing in ManageEngine IT solutions

From IT asset management and network and server monitoring to cybersecurity, identity management, and automation, Lazar Soft offers a comprehensive portfolio of solutions designed to address the digital challenges faced by businesses today.

Lazar Soft has made the strategic choice to focus its expertise on the ManageEngine ecosystem. Although not widely known to the general public, ManageEngine — a subsidiary of the Zoho Corporation group and ranked among the top five global software vendors — is often presented as an alternative to major players such as Microsoft, thanks to its comprehensive suite of tools.

A reference in the field

With around twenty certifications, Lazar Soft is now ManageEngine’s most certified partner in Europe. The company has deployed its solutions for 250 clients throughout France.

Lazar Soft works with SMEs, as well as large corporations facing multi-site challenges, along with local governments, airports, hospitals, and even organizations in the defense sector.

Its revenue has shown impressive growth, with an average increase of 150% over three years, in a market where demand is constantly on the rise.

Pierre Tarradas, the company's founder and president, adds: “My goal was clear when I founded Lazar Soft: to become the leading ManageEngine partner in France. Now we are targeting the international market, with plans to open an office in Canada by the end of the year.”

Cybersecurity, a field of challenges and opportunities

Even in this mature market, many SMEs still underestimate the risks, at a time when threats are constantly evolving and becoming more frequent with the rise of artificial intelligence.

The threats that existed two years ago are no longer the same, and businesses of all sizes are affected. This is a new reality, but it also represents a huge field of opportunities for us,” emphasizes Pierre Tarradas.

A team of about ten employees is currently working to set up ManageEngine’s first Security Operations Center in France. Contracts are in the process of being negotiated, and the project’s implementation in the coming months is expected to create three new jobs.
