High ERP Costs for Inadequate Systems
Traditional ERP solutions are often oversized, complex, and expensive. Designed for manufacturing companies or large enterprises, they do not address the specific needs of service providers. Implementing and customizing these systems ties up significant resources without delivering proportional value.

Managing Across Multiple Systems
Using separate tools for time tracking, project management, resource planning, and customer communication leads to inefficiencies and data silos. Employees must switch between different applications, which costs time and increases the risk of errors. Manually transferring data between systems is labor-intensive and risky.

Loss of Billable Hours
Complicated time tracking processes result in employees either not logging their hours completely or not doing so in a timely manner. This leads to direct revenue losses, inaccurate project billing, and a distorted view of actual resource utilization. Without accurate time tracking, there is no basis for sound calculation and planning.

Lack of Real-Time KPIs
Without meaningful, real-time metrics, the foundation for strategic decision-making is missing. Many companies rely on outdated data or manually compiled reports. This delays response times to issues and hampers proactive business management. The lack of transparency hinders growth and continuous optimization.

Hello Today was first rolled out internally in January 2024 with 70 employees across four locations. The development follows a structured process:

1. Identifying Unsolved Problems through Market Research and Customer Analysis
We continuously research the current challenges facing service providers and analyze industry trends. This in-depth understanding ensures that Hello Today solves real problems and delivers genuine value.

2. Tailored Solution Design with a Focus on Usability
Taking all aspects of business operations into account, we develop solutions that can be seamlessly integrated into daily workflows. Our design process puts the user at the center, ensuring intuitive operation.

3. Agile Development with Ongoing User Feedback
In iterative development cycles, we refine the functionality based on real user feedback. This agile approach enables rapid adjustments and ensures that the final product is optimally aligned with user needs.

4. Efficient Rollout with Comprehensive Training and Support
The introduction of new features is accompanied by detailed documentation, training resources, and responsive support. We support our customers throughout the entire implementation process.

5. Continuous Improvement and Integration of New Technologies
Hello Today is constantly evolving. We evaluate and integrate new technologies to continuously enhance the platform and ensure its future viability. AI-powered features are already in development.

With Hello Today, we are shaping the future of project-driven service businesses—innovative, practical, and continuously evolving. Our roadmap focuses on ongoing optimization of existing features, integration of new technologies, and a consistent alignment with the real needs of our clients.

Intelligent Automation & AI Integration

We are continuously working to replace repetitive and time-consuming administrative tasks with smart automation. In the future, artificial intelligence will make processes like time tracking, resource planning, and forecasting even more efficient. The goal is not just to collect data, but to proactively derive recommendations for team and project management.

Data-Driven Decision Support

The further development of our reporting centers on real-time analytics and individually configurable dashboards. With modern analytics tools and AI-supported evaluations, companies will gain even more precise insights into their projects, resources, and finances—for faster, data-driven decision-making.

Enhanced Competency and Skill Management

The targeted development and optimal deployment of talent is crucial for business success. That’s where we come in: competency management will be expanded to map, track, and manage skills and development goals even more granularly. In the future, training measures and qualification profiles will also be integrated directly into the system.

Seamless Integration and Open Interfaces

To complement existing system landscapes, we are investing in the expansion of standardized interfaces to third-party providers (e.g., accounting, payroll, CRM). This makes Hello Today the central building block of a flexible, modern IT architecture and allows it to be easily integrated into existing processes and tools.

Mobile Experience & Self-Service

Mobility and flexibility will be further enhanced: We are continually developing the mobile usability of Hello Today, so that all key features are available on the go—including self-service options for employees and managers.

Security, Data Protection & Compliance

With increasing regulatory requirements, we put special emphasis on data protection, information security, and compliance. This includes continuous certification to recognized standards as well as new features for rights and access management.

Customer-Centric Development

Our roadmap is a living document. Through continuous user feedback and targeted market analysis, we prioritize new features that deliver real value. Every step of development is closely coordinated with clients and partner companies.
