Pay once, it's yours.

Freely editable.

You get the complete source code (PHP + SQLite) and may adapt and extend it for your company, or have it adapted. Runs on any standard web hosting.

Built in the field.

Born in real day-to-day operations – hundreds of orders a week, technicians, contractors, fixed appointments. Not slideware, but a working tool.

Our promise

uttek is a small business. Behind the shop is me, Rudi. This is what you can rely on:

A promise is kept

What I promise you, I keep. Price, date, scope – just as agreed. If something does go wrong, I tell you openly and put it right.

No petty billing

Short questions up to about 10 minutes cost nothing. When I bill time, I round down in your favour, never up.

Your satisfaction comes first

You should enjoy working with the software. If something doesn’t fit, we find a solution together – better to ask once too often.

Rudi instead of a hotline

You write to me personally, not to a call centre. You usually get an answer within 24 hours on working days.

I check in after your purchase

About 14 days after your purchase I briefly ask whether everything is running. No marketing mails, just a personal check-in.

Benefits for regular customers

From purchase no. 3: 10 % loyalty discount on further licences and 30 extra minutes of help for free. Small extras like swapping a logo or a quick question are free anyway.

No small print attached. If you are unsure, just ask me. Write to me

Change requests

Your tool can do more – just tell us what you wish for.

You describe it, we build it. Test first, pay later.

  • We adapt your tool – a new feature or a different design.
  • See a preview first (design: 3 proposals), then decide.
  • You only pay after you confirm – in credits, price shown up front.
  • Share your idea and get a discount: if your idea may help everyone, it costs less.

Subscription or one-time purchase?

Typical dispatch software costs €30–60 per technician and month. With 15 technicians that quickly adds up to more than €30,000 over five years. Do the maths yourself.

Buy dispatch software instead of renting it – why it pays off for small businesses

Trade businesses, customer services and service companies with field technicians pay per user every month with typical cloud solutions. Every new employee raises the cost – over the years this quickly adds up to five-figure sums. uttek takes a different route: you buy the software once, install it on your own web space and use it indefinitely. No user limit, no contract term, no vendor lock-in.

Job scheduling, order planning and technician app in one tool

uttek Dispo combines everything a dispatcher needs day to day: a clear planning board with drag & drop, automatic distribution of jobs by postcode and capacity, appointments for technicians, fitters and contractors, and a mobile view for the smartphone. The web app runs on iPhone and Android and installs without an app store.

Self-hosting with personal service: made for founders and small teams

The tools were built in real day-to-day business – with hundreds of jobs per week. That is why they are quick to set up, easy to understand and usable without a long learning curve. The first year of updates is always included. If you want help with installation, data import or customisation, book it flexibly with service credits – personally and from Germany.
