"Since switching to foreknown, we've managed to produce our activity reports and invoices in a very short time."
Wolfgang Janssen
General Manager, Nordeck IT + Consulting GmbH
We are software product developers in the open source sector and are helping to drive forward Germany's digital sovereignty. In this context, clients in the public sector faced us with new challenges due to complex project structures with small-scale billing units - for us, this meant a great deal of additional work in the billing process and in project controlling.
Since switching to foreknown, we have been able to create our activity reports and invoices in a very short time in accordance with our customers' specifications and also to map controlling accordingly. We also rely on foreknown to record the attendance and absense times of our employees.
Another reason for choosing foreknown was the good integration with our project management software Jira (including Tempo Timesheets) and our HR software from Personio.
We really appreciate the short response times and the open ear we encounter when we need adjustments from foreknown - all in all, a collegial relationship that is fun.
