community4you – a Success Story!
Since our foundation in 2001 we have been a successful IT company with international clientele, experiencing continuous growth. Next to consulting and project realization, our core business segment focuses on the implementation of products and solutions on top of our own software framework open-EIS. We currently have 30 employees in the company who develop custom-made software solutions in the following areas
- Document and Content Management,
- Fleet Management,
- Trade Fair Management,
- Team Work and Knowledge Management as well as
- Training & eLearning.
Our first and most important priority is the maximization of the customer's benefit. Therefore, community4you not only continuously optimizes its technological solution open-EIS but also maintains close contact to institutions and scientific organizations which deal with these topics. We understand the feedback of our clients and target groups as a source for permanent optimizations and for new ideas. Although community4you has committed itself to a perfectly functioning technology we are constantly researching new technological methods and monitoring new application areas, with the goal of supporting complex processes, structures and social fabrics in companies and administrations.
community4you GmbH was founded January 1, 2001 - dark times at the stock market. The black year of the New Economy went into the next round. Layoffs and insolvencies were a daily occurrence; even the major companies of the industry got into economic trouble. Nobody wanted to trust the visionaries of the once promising "New Age" any longer. The same for community4you - an internationally successful company was to be created, in the middle of Chemnitz - with a patented technology for knowledge management and most of all with a lot of dedication. Due to the tense economical situation though, no new investors could be found who were prepared to support this business idea. In spite of the mentioned challenging difficulties at the beginning, the company managed to be in the black already in the first years of business. By means of an innovative product and hard work community4you was able not only to survive but also to grow. At that time, our clients were large-scale enterprises resp. administrations, throughout Germany. New teams in the areas of marketing, sales and international development complemented existing areas of R&D and technical service. Our company began to deal with the U.S. American, Chinese and Eastern European target markets and started to establish first business ties in these regions.
The international relations were being further developed; especially the European and Latin American market were taken into focus. This is why our software framework open-EIS is in use in different European projects in the areas e-business and e-learning. Furthermore, open-EIS has constituted the technical basis for projects in Mexico, Bolivia, Cuba and Argentina.
The number of employees is increasing continuously as a result of a high demand, i.e. a very good order situation. Today, we count 30 employees and 4 trainees in our team and it is predictable that the number will further increase during the coming years. The central factor of success for an effective development of community4you GmbH is our team made up of a highly qualified and motivated staff. Our consultants and developers/programmers dispose of many years' of practical experience in the Internet business. They are experts in their fields of activity and understand how to map business process of our clients on these technologies and media in conjoint team work.
