Your Success

it all started in cape town

With a background in industrial engineering and business improvement, we started prettysim.pl in 2015 in Cape Town.

Our very first trial run was the most over engineered salad bar in the world.. we built it to automatically manage stock levels, order produce according to fluctuating customer demand, created digital customer loyalty and had regulars ordering coffee by the push of a single button. BUT a good salad bar needs more than an amazing systems to survive!

From those first integrated system exploration, however, it's been a wonderful, adventurous low-code journey helping our clients with their business systems, while they worked on all the other wonderful parts that make them unique. We have travelled through neck-and-back clinics, dental practices, nutrigenomics & wellness coaching clinics, plywood furniture manufacturers, digital art photography inventory systems and many many more.

10 years later, we often reflect on how much technology has changed - and keeps changing. Every day brings a new challenge, different problem solving and making the complex simple. Most importantly though, our clients become friends and we love it!
