ERP & custom software from Hamburg
Where your software stops,
we start.
We replace outdated ERP systems and legacy in-house software step by step and develop software for your own workflows. What should stay, we connect - together with the people who use it every day.

What sets us apart
Your business has its own rules. Your software should know them.
Do you calculate prices differently, approve orders by your own criteria or have specific production steps? What works in your business belongs in your software - in your ERP or alongside it. If your ERP fits, it stays, and we add your workflows to it. If a new one is due, we develop them directly in it, on ElbDesk, the foundation we build on. Everyone works with the same data.

Most enquiries start with a sentence like one of these. Does one sound like your business? Then we usually already know where to start.
Not sure yet which one applies? Keep, extend or replace? Take the system check
“Our key process lives in spreadsheets, emails and people’s heads.”
We develop software built around exactly this workflow.
Develop custom software“Shop, warehouse and accounting each show different stock levels.”
We connect your systems so that each piece of information is entered only once.
Connect systems“Our inventory system is no longer supported.”
We replace it step by step, while your business keeps running.
Replace step by step“Our people have long been using AI - just privately.”
We give your team controlled access to AI, and you decide which data it may see.
Use AI safely
“On the customer side, I was responsible for an ERP rollout myself. That is why we start with your processes, not with standardised screens.”
From your workflow to the right software
We guide you through these three steps. You can start at any of them, for example if all you need is an interface.
01Understand processes
We look at your processes
We walk through a real order with you, from receipt to invoice. Afterwards you know where time is lost and what is worth changing.
02Develop software
We develop your application
An application for exactly this workflow, with your rules and approvals. Your team tries it out before it goes into daily use.
03Connect systems
We connect it to your systems
Shop, ERP, accounting or industry software exchange their data automatically where possible. If a system can no longer keep up, we replace it step by step while you keep working.
App developmentWe also develop apps for iPhone, Android and tablet - as a product of their own or as an addition to your existing software.See app development
