Its German name, <strong>P<\/strong>ost<strong>L<\/strong>eitzahlen<strong>U<\/strong>m<strong>S<\/strong>tellungs-<strong>SOFT<\/strong>, provided the inspiration. Do you remember \u201cRolf\u201d and the \u201cF\u00fcnf ist Tr\u00fcmpf\u201d campaign? Some of our long-standing customers certainly do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next came a battered little red car with a roof-mounted \u201cEmergency Computer Support\u201d sign and two enthusiastic colleagues. In 1999, we launched \u201cbaubranche-online\u201d, an innovative internet service for the construction industry at the time. Finally, in 2002, we founded <a href=\"https:\/\/plumsoft.de\">plumsoft Systemhaus GmbH<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until 2023, the company provided everyday, all-round IT support. Towards the end of this period, cloud hosting became an increasingly strong specialisation. Together with the economic upheaval and lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, this eventually led us to cease trading through the company and <a href=\"https:\/\/plumsoft.cloud\/en\/2024\/01\/01\/cooperation-plumsoft-sit\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"543\">split the business<\/a> into two separate companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, plumsoft Cloud Systems e.K. is an IT services business owned and run by J\u00fcrgen Walch, with an annual turnover currently just under \u20ac400,000. Our work now focuses on consulting, cloud hosting and virtualisation. We work as team players, in close collaboration with <a href=\"https:\/\/smart-it-team.de\">Smart-IT-Team<\/a>, sharing workloads, parts of our infrastructure, a telephone system and office space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We would be delighted to welcome you as a customer.<br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Die Geschichte des Firmennamens &#8222;plumsoft&#8220; beginnt 1993 w\u00e4hrend des Studiums mit einer selbstentwickelten PostLeitzahlenUmStellungs-SOFTware.
