Most of the conventional business software solutions are known to be complicated. Thus, Hundertzehn GmbH has created a quick and easy overview of financial, project and personnel planning data through informative reports. MOCO maps the entire project cycle from acquisition to operational planning, time tracking and billing in one online platform so that companies can make optimal decisions to continuously enhance efficiency.

joyable,“ Sabine Schäuble, co-founder and designer, explains. Focussing on the needs of their target group, MOCO stands for consistent simplicity from attractive design to steady optimisation of the software. “Software needs to be simple, fun and should simplify working life. Thus, we focus on the usability of our web-based software for the self-employed, for agencies and service providers. The art of reduction is essential and we thoroughly question each feature before we integrate it,“ Schäuble says. A personal MOCO account is created in seconds without installation costs and users can begin to use it directly without the need for training. A transparent monthly subscription ensures that no hidden charges occur. “MOCO saves administration costs, supports corporate decisions and offers the
possibility of internal process and efficiency optimisation,“ Schäuble notes. Because usability stands at MOCO’s core, Hundertzehn GmbH was awarded Silver in the ‘usability’ category at the Best of Swiss Web 2015. The Hundertzehn GmbH team is not only dedicated to offer an innovative way for quickly examining the ‘big picture‘ of business operations, but also personally and competently advises their customers and helps them find solutions for making day-to-day work more efficient. www.hundertzehn.ch www.mocoapp.com
