Most business apps don't fail because of the technology. They fail because of how they're used.
Building an app is no longer a feat these days. Building an app that your customers, retailers, or employees will still open every day six months from now—that’s the real challenge.
That’s exactly where PRODATA brings something to the table that pure app agencies don’t have: over 35 years of experience in motivating people to engage in repeat behavior—through rewards, points, status, and relevant occasions.
MORE THAN JUST DOWNLOADS
30 days—that’s how quickly most apps get deleted.
Ours become second nature. Because engagement mechanics are a core architectural principle for us—not an afterthought.

CASE STUDY
App Success Story
Our Showcase Project: Digital Retailer Hub
Specialty retailers had to go through the time-consuming process of placing orders by phone or fax. There was no central portal and no real-time, customer-specific pricing.
PRODATA developed a high-performance platform based on Shopware 6 Enterprise and Microsoft Azure. Through real-time integration with the SAP ERP system, pricing, inventory, and approval workflows were automated.
Client & Industry:
Leading Manufacturer (Construction Supplies)
Technology Stack:
• Shopware 6 Enterprise
• Microsoft Azure Cloud
• SAP ERP Real-Time API
„
Our collaboration with PRODATA has been a partnership of equals from day one. Not only did they deliver an excellent technical system, but thanks to their decades of experience in the loyalty sector, they understand exactly how to engage B2B buyers—both emotionally and rationally—with a platform.

FAQ
Shopware-specific answers to the questions decision-makers actually ask.
How much does it cost to develop a business app?
The costs depend on the scope of functionality, the technological approach, and the integrations. During the free strategy consultation, you’ll receive an honest assessment of the effort involved and the budget—before we prepare a proposal.
How long does it take from the initial idea to the app being available in the store?
A specialized business app is typically ready for release in 3–6 months. With our agile approach, you’ll see real progress in every sprint—no “black box” until go-live.
Native app, cross-platform, or PWA—which one makes the most sense for my business?
That depends on the target audience, use case, and budget. You don’t have to make this decision on your own: We’ll analyze your use case and recommend the technology that offers the best overall value.
Can the app be integrated with our ERP/CRM system and our online store?
Yes. The backend, built on C#/.NET and Microsoft Azure, is specifically designed for system integration—ERP, CRM, PIM, Shopware, and other legacy systems. A single data source, not a siloed solution.
Where is the data stored, and what are the data protection regulations?
All data is stored on Microsoft Azure in Germany (Germany West Central region), is GDPR-compliant, and supports AVV. Our organization is ISO 27001 certified.
Does PRODATA also handle operations, updates, and further development after the launch?
Yes—for us, the store release is just the beginning, not the end. We handle hosting, monitoring, OS updates, further development, and support with fixed SLAs and dedicated points of contact.
