Problems cannot be solved with
the same mind set that created them.
We look at your situation from a different perspective and find a holistic, customer-centric approach that works for your business.
The best way to stay consistent
is to change with the circumstances.
We develop bespoke productivity solutions that fit your environment, using modern technology and agile methods.
Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, you feed him for life.
We support your IT team’s development to prepare them for future challenges.
At consultant-base, we come to work every day because we’re passionate about
creating software solutions targeting the vulnerable spots in business processes.
Companies grow and so do their processes and software, but unfortunately not always in the right direction.
This leads to complicated and lengthy processes in daily operations, unsatisfied employees and customers,
and ultimately resulting in loss of sales.
We at consultant-base help our clients to look at the situation from a different perspective and find a holistic,
customer-centred approach in order to create an overall process that works for their business.
As a small, agile and experienced team we offer an end-to-end service from consulting, to software development and to rollout.
We don’t just build software and leave you alone with it – we support our clients on a long-term basis
and even help them to develop their own experienced IT team.
As a Sage ISV Champion / Developer Partner we are experts in customising Sage 100 / Sage Office Line.
We are a Microsoft Partner, specialising in Microsoft business products like SQL-Server and .NET development.
We build long-standing relationships with our customers. We work together, listen and add value. The success of our customers is our success. Transparency and honesty are important to us. We are passionate about our work and we go the extra mile to achieve excellence.
consultant-base was founded by Andrea and Robert Lener, who shared a vision of creating a customer-centred software company.
Working together with a client’s IT team, we created a software connector for eBay to handle listing and sales. It was a big challenge and a huge success for our team.
Building upon our successful development of a software connector for eBay, and after receiving numerous requests from clients, we built a multichannel connector handling listings and sales on other platforms.
Driven by the idea of connecting and exchanging ideas with other brilliant IT companies, we moved our office to the Mountain View Innovation Centre.
Working closely with a client’s purchasing department, we optimised their procurement process and built a tailor-made dropshipping solution that could handle thousands of orders.
To ensure our clients are prepared for digital transformation, we provide expert support for the training and development of IT teams.
Celebrating 10 Years in business, we’d like to thank all our clients, friends and supports!
