Evenings and Saturdays too. Based in Cloppenburg, on the road across the Oldenburger Münsterland.

Technology that just works.

I build apps and websites for businesses and clubs. And I help people at home when their Wi-Fi, PC or smart home won't behave.

What I do

Whether trade business, club or household: you have one contact for everything to do with technology.

For businesses & clubs

Apps & websites

This is my main job. I build smartphone apps, web applications and websites for tradespeople, practices, clubs and freelancers in the region.

  • Your own app for iPhone and Android, e.g. for loyalty cards, appointments or orders
  • Web apps instead of Excel sheets: timesheets, stock, order management
  • Online booking, enquiry forms, members' area
  • A new website or a refresh of the old one
  • Maintenance and updates if you'd rather not take care of it yourself

Office IT & automation

For small offices without their own IT department.

  • Email with your own domain, contract in your name
  • Printers and scanners that everyone can finally find
  • Automate recurring tasks, e.g. form → spreadsheet → email
€49 / hr · Pricing →

For your home

Smart home & Wi-Fi

For your home, from the basement to the garden.

  • Wi-Fi throughout the house, without dead spots
  • Smart home with Home Assistant, Zigbee and Matter
  • Control heating, lights and shutters automatically
  • Store photos and documents safely at home
Starter package €399 · Details →

PC & workplace

Whether gaming PC or grandma's laptop.

  • Put together and build a PC to your wishes
  • Set up Windows from scratch, bring your old data along
  • Upgrade, clean, find faults
PC build €99 · Pricing →

I come by and we go through all your questions calmly: smartphone, tablet, WhatsApp, backing up photos. No time pressure, billed by the hour. Also makes a nice gift from the kids.

How it works

You call or send me a short message about what you need. Usually a phone call or a short visit is enough for me to take a look.

Then you know what it costs: a fixed price for projects, an honest estimate for small jobs. I only start once you agree.

Finally, I explain everything calmly and leave a short summary so you can look up later what is set up where.

Moin, I'm Maximilian.

My main job is building applications for web and mobile. Privately, I have been building home networks, smart home systems and PCs for years, first for myself, then for family and friends. With Imsiecke Software I now do it for you too, right here in Cloppenburg.

It matters to me that you understand afterwards what I did. Wherever possible your data stays with you instead of with some cloud provider. For projects, the price is fixed before I start.

Away from the screen I'm mostly outdoors: I train for triathlon, so running, road cycling and swimming, and I like hiking or just going for a walk. On holiday I go on road trips across Europe in my electric car. At home I tinker, with software just as much as with hardware.

Frequently asked questions

Your question isn't here? Just call or write to me.

With the “Business” package, yes. You change texts, images and opening hours yourself, no programming needed. I'll show you how at handover. If you'd rather not deal with it, just send it to me.

You do. Domain and hosting are registered in your name, and you get all the login details. So you never depend on me and can switch at any time.

No. I set up your smart home so that it runs at your home, even when the internet is down. There are no monthly fees.

As you like. I tell you beforehand what suits your home, and you order yourself. Or I get the devices and bill them without a markup.

Get in touch. I can solve many things quickly by remote support, otherwise I come by. If the fault is in my work, fixing it costs nothing, of course.

On site by card or later by bank transfer against invoice, whatever you prefer. For websites: half at the start, the rest when the site is online.

I am a small business under § 19 of the German VAT Act and therefore do not charge VAT. The price on the site is the price you pay.
