How can I survive the competition? How can I ensure the future viability of my company? And how can I use digitalization to do this? One answer to these questions is the business organization software "KüchenDesk".

The service was first introduced in May 2023 and has been gaining more and more users ever since. This is probably due to its high practical relevance, among other things. The software was developed together with pilot companies "by kitchen specialists for kitchen specialists". "And constantly developed further", as Marco Hanczuch from the provider Meisterdesk GmbH explains. "KüchenDesk" is a living system. At the suggestion of a specialist kitchen retailer, work is currently underway on an end customer login and new interfaces are constantly being programmed.

Access at any time
For anyone who is not yet familiar with "KüchenDesk", Marco Hanczuch describes the offering as follows: The business organization software is a cloud-based solution that maps the entire operational process in the specialist store: from ordering and warehousing to assembly and invoicing. Including merchandise management, CRM and central database. It is compatible with all common kitchen planning programs and can be used across all associations. And it can be used around the clock and from anywhere. Access areas are activated individually depending on the position in the company.

The cloud is accepted
But don't kitchen retailers have a problem with placing their operating data in a cloud? The surprising answer is: not at all. "Most people no longer have any reservations about the cloud," reports the "KüchenDesk" initiator. Word has gotten around about the advantages and they have long been used in many everyday areas. In fact, many potential users are more concerned with changing the work steps they have been used to for years. "Many of the people I talk to know exactly that the journey is heading in the direction of cloud services, digitalization and AI applications," reports Hanczuch in conversation at area30. For him and his team, consulting is therefore always about creating trust in the processes and thus initiating and consolidating the establishment of new workflows.

More secure than on your home computer
Another important argument is the aspect of data security, which is significantly higher with cloud-based services. Because of the regular backups, the strong firewall, but also because of the up-to-dateness. Marco Hanczuch: "Cloud programs are always up to date and, unlike conventional desktop single-user licenses, do not run the risk of being switched off". Detailed data protection regulations also ensure that no one can access the operating data of the respective studio without authorization.
