Doch bevor ich darauf eingehe, m\u00f6chte ich einen kurzen Blick zur\u00fcck auf unsere Unternehmensanf\u00e4nge werfen.\r\n\r\nWir machen bereits seit mehr als einem Jahrzehnt Software f\u00fcr das Projektmanagement. In dieser Zeit haben wir unz\u00e4hlige Einf\u00fchrungsprojekte bei den unterschiedlichsten Kunden in unterschiedlichen Branchen gemacht. In these projects, our project management software was implemented at the customer&#8217;s site (i.e. on-premise) and usually heavily customized.\r\n\r\nThe fact that the software was implemented in the customer&#8217;s data center meant that an elaborate internal customer process was required to pick up all stakeholders from all departments. However, this approach resulted in the following challenges:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>You try to pack all the customer&#8217;s requirements into the tool. If already implemented, then everything purely what goes<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The time until the product was implemented was often very long, so that the end users could only use the tool when everything was ready &#8211; after that, changes are often very difficult.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Partly very complex and individual requirements, which changed the &#8220;standard&#8221; strongly<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Product updates on the customer&#8217;s system were rather difficult because many people at the customer were involved from different areas<\/li>\r\n \t<li>The Scrum method was also only partially effective, since customers usually have a fixed budget and all requirements should be included.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f39bd9b ob-has-background-overlay elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f39bd9b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_photomorph_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_perspektive_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;_ob_poopart_use&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_ob_shadough_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_allow_hoveranimator&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_widget_stalker_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"420\" src=\"https:\/\/smenso.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/smenso-social-sharing-1024x538.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5572\" alt=\"The Project &amp; Work Management Platform for Teams and Companies\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smenso.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/smenso-social-sharing-1024x538.png 1024w, https:\/\/smenso.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/smenso-social-sharing-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/smenso.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/smenso-social-sharing-768x403.png 768w, https:\/\/smenso.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/smenso-social-sharing.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d4e5ead ob-harakiri-inherit ob-has-background-overlay elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d4e5ead\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_use_harakiri&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_ob_harakiri_writing_mode&quot;:&quot;inherit&quot;,&quot;_ob_harakiri_text_clip&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;_ob_perspektive_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;_ob_poopart_use&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_ob_shadough_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_allow_hoveranimator&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_widget_stalker_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Something had to change - the birth of smenso<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6cafdcf ob-harakiri-inherit ob-has-background-overlay elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6cafdcf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ob_use_harakiri&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_ob_harakiri_writing_mode&quot;:&quot;inherit&quot;,&quot;_ob_postman_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_perspektive_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;ekit_we_effect_on&quot;:&quot;none&quot;,&quot;_ob_poopart_use&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;_ob_shadough_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_allow_hoveranimator&quot;:&quot;no&quot;,&quot;_ob_widget_stalker_use&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>All the above examples have shown that project management software must be extremely flexible and yet simple, so that it can develop the greatest benefit. However, this also means that it must be possible to permanently adapt and change the requirements and prerequisites, just as many things are constantly in flux in a project.<\/p><p>For this reason, we decided to develop a completely new type of software. A software that is used as a standardized platform, which is immediately ready for use, but which can be configured so flexibly by the users themselves that it can grow with the requirements. A software, with which one can convert however also individual and complex topics, without having to spend a gigantic budget.<\/p><p>To reach that, one must be however also in the position &#8220;old braids&#8221; to cut off and on a completely different Mindset get involved. Sentences like &#8220;A good project management software should have &#8230;.&#8221; do not exist for us. We think it&#8217;s much more important to use smenso to achieve the project goal as easily as possible, with the result you want. And this result is not always to be achieved on the paths that have &#8220;always been there&#8221; or &#8220;have always been done that way&#8221;.<\/p><p>The best example of this is the project hierarchy. Here, virtually every project literature recommends a widely branched hierarchy. The deeper the better. Ever seen such a complex folder hierarchy on a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/de\/ipad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iPad<\/a>? Well, I don&#8217;t.
