What drives us

What began in 1991 with the invention of the internet is now commonly called the “digitisation of society” or “digital transformation”. What’s behind this is a change as rapid as it is radical – in habits, processes, business models and the manner in which people and companies deal with each other. We have been meeting this challenge since the company was founded in 2000.

What we believe

Digital interfaces to customers are an essential driver of modern companies’ value creation. We recognise this in the continuously increasing enquiries and orders from our customers via service centres and e-commerce systems. Lifestyle habits are being revolutionised. People’s changing communication behaviour is just one indicator of this. In order to keep close to their customers, companies and institutions also have to be flexible.

What we work on

With our software technologies, we enable our customers to continuously increase the number of digital customer relationships across all channels and strengthen the value of these customer relationships.
