Company Profile

MAYFLOWER is your partner in the development of individual software solutions. Through the use of modern techniques in web-based client-server architecture and methods of agile software development, we are able to implement projects efficiently, fast, and oriented to our customers’ requirements. At the same time, we enable our customers to intervene in the development process and make adjustments and adaptations to the concept.

The result: applications that are customized perfectly to your processes, and not the other way round.

In today’s business world, many processes are no longer conceivable without adequate IT support. But at the center of the discussion are usually just slogans and their abbreviations:

  •  Web-portals
  •  CRM
  •  CMS
  •  BPM
  •  DMS
  •  ERP

 

But a company cannot profit from these until it has a full understanding of them and the integration of their underlying processes. MAYFLOWER is characterized by its knowledge of these benefits.

Our products integrate and reflect a company’s processes and requirements in perfectly customized applications, thus creating competitive advantages for our customers. We implement development projects fast and at a reasonable price. Our customized software applications stand for premium development, efficiency and professionalism.

The history of MAYFLOWER

The history of MAYFLOWER has many starting points. In 1997, Gregor Streng and Johann-Peter Hartmann founded Mayflower Marketing GbR in Munich. Björn Schotte, then known as PHP-Wizard, has been active in the PHP area since 1998.

In 2000, MAYFLOWER and Björn Schotte together founded the project “ThinkPHP”, a merger for supporting the program language PHP in companies.

ThinkPHP has established itself successfully in the PHP area in the last few years and stands for the technical competence of MAYFLOWER.

In 2002, the company was renamed MAYFLOWER GmbH, and 2004 saw the next big step: the many years of close cooperation between all participating partners culminated in a fusion, so that today all four persons are essential components of the company.

Thanks to continuous healthy growth, MAYFLOWER currently employs over 30 persons in the two company locations in Munich and Würzburg.
