Awerka® — The Story Behind the Name
How years of experience with complex ERP systems led to a vision: a business platform that is simple, affordable, and covers everything.
How It All Started
Patrick Probst
Founder & Developer
Awerka was born from a simple realization: business software doesn't have to be complicated or expensive.
Founder Patrick Probst spent years developing and working with enterprise ERP systems. He saw firsthand how businesses — especially small and mid-sized ones — struggled with software that was either too complex, too expensive, or required a patchwork of different tools just to manage their daily operations.
The idea was clear: build a platform that brings everything together — from customer management and project planning to time tracking, invoicing, and inventory — in one intuitive solution. A platform that doesn't require weeks of training or a dedicated IT team to set up. A platform that grows with your business, not against it.
Why Awerka?
The name Awerka stands for "A Work App" — your work app. It reflects what the platform is at its core: a single application for all the work that keeps a business running. No more switching between five different tools. No more data silos. Just one app for everything.
Looking for "Averka"? You're in the right place! Awerka is sometimes searched as "Averka" — a common mix-up. The correct spelling is Awerka, with a W.
Since its founding, Awerka has grown into a registered trademark and a trusted platform used by businesses across Germany — from solo freelancers to established enterprises.
