We believe that staffing the right people across departments and projects and ensuring they can be productive and happy is the key success factor for any company. And that’s exactly why we developed the Meisterplan software solution.

Meisterplan puts people at the center of the project portfolio. We combine intuitive and visual capacity planning with the most important features for project portfolio management. Without any frills, we ensure that the right employees are always working on the right topics at the right time. Our goal is that companies can move forward confidently.

For us, people go hand in hand with a successful business. With this mindset, we have built one of the most popular software companies in Germany for employees – with enthusiasm for technology, over 20 years experience and completely self-financed. Our awards with the Great Place to Work® show that our way of working and our cooperation and support for employees are something special.
