About us

Retendo specializes in operational planning for higher education institutions

Retendo was founded in 2001 and specializes in developing and delivering web-based systems for operational planning within higher education.

Our solutions provide higher education institutions with comprehensive support for planning staff, courses, students, projects, and examinations — all within a unified system that creates structure, transparency, and efficient administration.

Secure and Reliable Data Storage in Europe

Retendo is a Swedish company with operations based in Sweden and customer data stored within the EU/EEA. All customer data is subject to the GDPR, providing our customers with a high level of security and regulatory compliance. We are therefore a natural choice for organizations that wish to ensure their data is stored within Europe.

A Growing Company

Retendo’s systems are used by 9 out of 10 universities in Sweden. Our solutions are established across the Scandinavian market and are also delivered internationally.

Please contact us to learn more about how our systems can simplify administration at your university or within your organization.

Comprehensive Support and High Security

With Retendo, you benefit from a reliable and stable solution. We have more than 20 years of experience and provide qualified support via phone and email. Connections to our servers are encrypted and meet high security standards.

Retendo’s systems are the natural choice for organizations that want to combine full administrative control with simplicity, operational stability, and cost efficiency.

Our commitment to quality, environment, working environment and IT-security

To ensure the highest possible standard in our operation, we are certified according to international ISO-standards:

  • ISO 9001 (Quality)

    Our work is structured in order to continually improve our processes and supply high quality systems – with the customer’s needs in focus at all times.

  • ISO 14001 (Environment)

    We take out environmental responsibility seriously and are actively engaged in reducing out impact on the environment through sustainable choices and effective procedures.

  • ISO 27001 (IT-security)

    Protection of information is crucial. We have established systems and procedures to secure our data and that of our customers – both internally and in our deliveries.

  • ISO 45001 (Working environment)

    A safe, secure and healthy working environment is a given for us. Our work environment management enables us to create excellent conditions in which our employees can thrive and develop.

Our certifications show that we take responsibility – for quality, environment, people and information – and that as a customer you can feel secure with us as your partner.

Environmentally-smart computer operation

Retendo’s data centres comply with the Triple Green environmental certificate.

  • Triple Green

    It is a practical eco-label that means that:

    • Electric power is derived from renewable forms of energy.
    • Heat from the servers is collected and used for heating.
    • That heating replaces other forms of energy, resulting in an overall saving.

What does Retendo mean?

The word Retendo is Latin and means to hold back, restrain, or control. That is exactly what we aim to help our customers achieve: to maintain a cohesive whole, stay in control, and steer their operations in the desired direction.

Retendo is also the name of an advanced maneuver in whitewater kayaking — a sport that requires great flexibility and adaptability to navigate powerful rapids. These are qualities that define us as well. We are a company that adapts to change, with short decision-making paths and solid expertise among our employees.

Quite simply, we are a partner you can rely on.
