Allocentra started when our founder was managing IT operations — juggling multiple dashboards, a PSA tab, a patching tool, and notifications that never stopped. None of the tools shared data. All of them charged per device.
About Allocentra
We're a Johannesburg company building RMM, ticketing, and patch management for South African MSPs and IT teams.
Chapter 01 · Origin
Allocentra started when our founder was managing IT operations — juggling multiple dashboards, a PSA tab, a patching tool, and notifications that never stopped. None of the tools shared data. All of them charged per device.
Founded in Sandton in 2026, we had our first production customer in July 2026: our founding partner, Zezwe ICT.
We still take support calls. We still ship every week.
Chapter 02 · Principles
Four rules that decide what ships — and what doesn’t.
Every feature has to answer “does this make a technician’s day better?” If we can’t say yes, it doesn’t ship.
We’d rather ship five features at 10/10 than fifty at 6/10. Shelfware is disrespectful.
No urgency theatre. The product should feel like it’s working for you, not at you.
Published prices. No data egress fees.
Chapter 03 · People
Small on purpose. Close to the product. Close to the customers.
Built Allocentra to solve the chaos of running IT operations. Still on support most mornings.
The Go agent, the Django API, the ECS deployment pipeline. Small and technical.
Information density over decoration. Every screen has to earn its place.
We're early. If you've worked a help-desk shift, you already understand our product — reach out.
