Testimonials

When I became part of cplace in 2017, I knew that this software had the potential to make modern project management methods applicable in practice. I like building software solutions for individual problems together with our customers in a short span of time. I appreciate the relaxed working atmosphere and cooperation at eye level throughout the company. Within our team, we work very constructively, can sometimes rub each other the wrong way, but always come together to celebrate again in a great way. There is also a lot of room for diversity, which I find very valuable.

I have been with cplace since April 2021 and love the variety. I'm always able to get to work on new and exciting topics together with our partners and customers. We have a great sense of accomplishment in that we manage to design cool functions or solutions as a team and thus spark our customers' enthusiasm for cplace. Our team thrives on a relaxed, open atmosphere, mutual appreciation, helpfulness and the spirit that we are all working together.

I think the company is ideal for starting out in professional life. Even during my interviews, I received feedback that helped me develop further. Everyone is very helpful and supports where they can. I especially like the opportunity to slip into different roles within consulting. I started as a solution consultant, later switched to project management and now I successfully manage my own projects.

We are a diverse team of Solution Consultants, Architects and cplace Specialists. We are united by our passion for cplace and the opportunity to use this unique platform to create great solutions in joint project teams together with our customers. We enjoy exciting, versatile challenges and like to solve problems. Technology and professionalism are both equally important to us and we want to bring digitalization in project management to a new level.

I have been closely following the steady development of cplace since I joined in 2017. What impressed me then, as it still does today, is the will to continue to grow and to pursue a clear vision. Following the personal development of my colleagues makes me happy and is part of our success story. I value the bond we have with our customers because we meet as equals and create successful solutions together in the shortest possible time. I love how we have grown together as a team. We support each other, learn from each other and look forward to each new team member.
