Aktuelle Bitkom-Studie zur Homeoffice-Nutzung zeigt Vorteile hybrider Arbeitswelten auf. Moderne Desk Sharing Software und Raumbuchungssysteme sorgen für einen reibungslosen Wechsel, für zufriedene Mitarbeitende und eine effiziente Flächennutzung.

Heilbronn, 21.05.2025 – Eine gute Organisation und Koordination von Büro-Präsenzzeiten und Homeoffice ist essenziell für die Akzeptanz von Regelungen und die Förderung des Zusammenhalts in Unternehmen. Das ist einer der Schlüsse, den die Autoren einer aktuellen Umfrage des Digitalverbandes Bitkom zum Status quo bei der Nutzung von Homeoffice in deutschen Unternehmen aus der Interpretation der Studiendaten ziehen. Die Erkenntnisse aus der Studie unterstützen damit indirekt den innovativen Ansatz der vysoft-Lösungen der dataglobal Group zur flexiblen Kombination von Homeoffice und Büro-Präsenz.

Rund 60 Prozent der repräsentativ befragten 602 Unternehmen ab 20 Beschäftigten – bei Unternehmen mit mehr als 100 Beschäftigten sind es sogar rund 75 Prozent – bieten ihren Mitarbeitenden ein flexibles Arbeiten von unterwegs oder im Homeoffice an. Ebenso viele Unternehmen sind davon überzeugt, dass flexible Arbeitsmodelle entscheidend dafür sind, die richtigen Talente für das Unternehmen zu gewinnen und zu halten.

Studie zeigt: hybrides Arbeiten muss gut organisiert werden

Hybrides Arbeiten ist der Königsweg – muss aber gut organisiert werden

„Von gut organisierten hybriden Arbeitsmodellen mit der Möglichkeit zum Homeoffice können viele Unternehmen und Beschäftigte gleichermaßen profitieren“, betont Bitkom-Präsident Dr. Ralf Wintergerst die Wichtigkeit einer guten Organisation von hybriden Arbeitsmodellen in einer Pressemittelung zur Bitkom-Studie. „In einem angespannten Arbeitsmarkt mit Fachkräftemangel kann eine flexible Arbeitsgestaltung ausschlaggebend sein, wenn es darum geht, gute Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter zu halten und zu finden.“

„Der ständige Wechsel zwischen Büro und Homeoffice lässt sich nicht mit Excel-Listen und Post-Its organisieren. Die Mitarbeitenden müssen benutzerfreundlich Arbeitsplätze und Räume online und auch mobil buchen können. Dabei sollten auch individuelle Wünsche Berücksichtigung finden – beispielsweise, wenn bestimmtes Equipment benötigt wird“, ergänzt Laurent Wicht, Geschäftsführer von dataglobal München und Experte für moderne Arbeitsmodelle. Besonders bewährt haben sich Lösungen, die sich nahtlos in die ohnehin genutzte Microsoft 365 Infrastruktur mit Outlook und Teams integrieren.

Mit innovativen Buchungs- und Belegungskonzepten aktiv den Zusammenhalt fördern

Zwei von drei Unternehmen befürchten laut der Bitkom-Studie, dass durch Homeoffice der Zusammenhalt im Unternehmen verloren geht. Deshalb bieten gute Lösungen für Desk Sharing und Raumverwaltung besondere Funktionen, um den Zusammenhalt im Team zu stärken. Die vysoft Desk Sharing Software ermöglicht beispielsweise gruppenbasierte Buchungen oder bevorzugte Platzzuweisungen im Rahmen einer Teamstruktur.

Auch die stets aktuelle Transparenz darüber, wer an welchem Tag wo sitzt, erleichtert es Mitarbeitenden bereits, mit den gewünschten Kolleginnen und Kollegen zusammenzuarbeiten und sorgt so für zusätzliche Motivation, ins Büro zu kommen. Feste Home Bases für bestimmte Abteilungen bieten darüber hinaus eine verlässliche räumliche Erreichbarkeit von Teams. Klare Buchungsregeln und individuell konfigurierbare Berechtigungen verhindern Missverständnisse. vysoft DSM erkennt potenzielle Überbuchungen im Vorfeld und bietet proaktiv Alternativen an. Ein KI-Assistent unterstützt zudem über einen Chat bei der Buchung von Arbeitsplätzen und Support-Anfragen.

Mehr Transparenz im Flächenbedarf und erhebliche Einsparungen

Der Nutzen flexibler Arbeitsmodelle für die Beschäftigten liegt auf der Hand. Sie sparen sich anstrengende Wege ins Büro und starten frischer und entspannter in den Arbeitstag. Rund 45 Prozent der Befragten in der Bitkom-Studie haben die Erfahrung gemacht, dass im Homeoffice produktiver gearbeitet wird als im Büro. Neben diesem Plus an Produktivität sichern moderne Desk-Sharing-Lösungen weitere Vorteile. Durch die Buchungs- und Belegungsdaten erhalten Unternehmen erstmals volle Transparenz über den tatsächlichen Flächenbedarf und damit über Engpässe oder die Verschwendung von Ressourcen. Eine bedarfsgerechtere Ausstattung mit Räumlichkeiten steigert nicht nur das Wohlbefinden der Mitarbeitenden und deren Produktivität, sondern erlaubt in der Regel auch deutliche Einsparungen bei Mieten, Reinigung und Nebenkosten.

„Die Studie zeigt, dass viele Unternehmen die Vorteile hybrider Arbeitsmodelle schätzen gelernt haben, es ihnen aber teilweise schwerfällt, die richtige Balance zwischen Homeoffice und Präsenz zu finden oder den dynamischen Wechsel effizient zu organisieren. Genau dort setzen wir mit unseren vysoft-Lösungen an, die innerhalb weniger Tage in Betrieb genommen werden können“, fasst Wicht die Bewertung der Studiendaten zusammen.

Die vysoft-Lösungen für Desk Sharing, Raumbuchung sowie Parkplatz- und Fuhrparkmanagement sind eigenständige Lösungen im Rahmen des ganzheitlichen Data City Ansatzes der dataglobal Group. Data City steht für eine nahtlose digitale Infrastruktur für hybride Arbeitswelten und verbindet alle Bereiche des Digital Workplace: von Dokumentenmanagement, Prozessdigitalisierung und Ressourcenmanagement bis hin zu Cybersecurity.

Heilbronn, 15.04.2025 – The dataglobal Group is strengthening its technology management team with the appointment of Christoph Feddersen. The experienced technology and product strategist is responsible for the cloud transformation and integration of the portfolio, with a clear focus on growth and customer benefits. As the new Chief Product and Technology Officer (CPTO), he took responsibility for the product development and technology departments on 1 April 2025 with the aim of strengthening the dataglobal Group with innovative solutions, future-oriented products and a clear technical vision.

Christoph Feddersen is the new CPTO of the dataglobal Group

Mr Feddersen has many years of experience in development, product management, and the successful transition of software solutions to the cloud, particularly in content management systems. Before joining the dataglobal Group, he spent more than 20 years at Crownpeak Technologies (formerly e-Spirit GmbH), most recently as Vice President Technical Product Management, where he was largely responsible for integrating several product lines into a scalable platform and establishing a long-term product and technology roadmap.

“For me, technology is not an end in itself, but a tool to make companies more efficient and successful. The dataglobal Group is characterised by precisely this pragmatism combined with the innovative strength of a fast-moving, midsize company,” explains Christoph Feddersen, new CPTO of the dataglobal Group. “With our vision of the Data City, we want to make our customers’ day-to-day work easier, more efficient and more intelligent. The dataglobal Group’s product portfolio has enormous potential for this, and I am eager to develop it further together with the team.”

As CPTO, Feddersen is responsible for product development and technology utilisation across the entire dataglobal Group portfolio. His work will initially focus on the consolidation and integration of products and the transformation to the cloud in order to promote efficiency and scalability and thus enable faster growth.

Christoph Feddersen is 43 years old and has lived in Dortmund for many years. The technology-enthusiastic leader joins the dataglobal management team of three – previously consisting of CEO Nicolas Schwarzpaul and CFO Lukáš Šošovička.

“With his extensive experience, Christoph gives our strategic direction even more technical depth and appeal. He stands for customer orientation both in the products and in the development processes. With his expertise, we will be able to further develop our product portfolio and support our customers,” says Nicolas Schwarzpaul, CEO of the dataglobal Group.

dataglobal Group is significantly expanding the possibilities for business process management in the Data City approach enabling customers to digitalise business processes efficiently and easily and benefit from significant cost reductions more quickly.

Heilbronn, 14 April 2025 – The dataglobal Group announces the general availability of version 9 of its Business Process Management (BPM) solution enabling companies, administrations and other organisations to model their processes digitally, edit them intuitively and execute them efficiently with software support. Typical areas of application include account payable and travel expense processing, vacation requests, general document control and purchase requisitions. Business Process Management makes it possible to quickly digitalise and automate all relevant business processes – end-to-end and integrated into the dataglobal Group’s holistic data city approach.

dataglobal Group makes process digitalisation easy with windream BPM

The Data City products form a modern digital workplace and enable efficient and secure hybrid working from anywhere. With end-to-end digital processes, they ensure efficiency, security and compliance as well as improved collaboration in projects – even across company boundaries. windream BPM is the key to automation, which shortens process runtimes, minimises manual errors and ensures consistently high quality resulting in higher customer satisfaction at significantly lower costs.

Graphic Designer and Smart Robots allow simple workflow creation

windream BPM offers a decisive advantage to companies that make slow progress in digitisation due to lacking sufficient staff with in-depth IT knowledge. With the BPM Designer, recurring business processes can be modelled on the basis of an easy and intuitive graphical user interface – even without in-depth programming knowledge using the low-code method. The BPM Designer optimally supports the business user in transferring the relevant business processes into electronic workflows.

In line with the dataglobal Group’s Data City approach, digitisation is thus moving much closer to the business departments, which can therefore contribute their process knowledge efficiently. windream BPM 9 is, thus, a highly flexible solution for the specific requirements of companies and their business.

For the technical implementation of the workflows, windream BPM 9 offers so-called Smart Robots. They are available for the automation of server-side tasks such as email dispatch or data exchange with third-party applications such as CRM, ERP and HR systems. They are also used for the interaction of process management with other components of the Data City infrastructure and take over the postponed indexing of documents in document management, for example. Freed from programming effort, customers save valuable time in workflow design and also minimise the usual testing and implementation effort.

Version 9 brings many improvements for users and in the backend

Version 9 brings a number of other improvements. For example, support through profiles makes it possible to process several workflow jobs simultaneously, which means a considerable increase in productivity for all workflow users. The multi-level escalations, which can be set individually for each workflow step, are just as flexible. They make it possible to react to missed deadlines – the impending disadvantages of a missed deadline, such as cash discount losses, are now a thing of the past. With the new ad-hoc workflows, users can spontaneously define and customise individual workflows based on prepared templates – including the sequence of steps, responsibilities and deadlines – without in-depth knowledge of workflow design.

Thanks to multithreading in system steps, processes can be executed even faster and more effectively, and the new server configuration tool makes managing and configuring the system much easier. In addition, windream BPM 9 supports PostgreSQL 17.2 as another mature and high-performance open-source database. These new performance features and many improvements in detail ensure that the latest version 9 of the BPM solution is a real game changer.

Integrated into the holistic Data City concept

windream BPM 9 plays a decisive role in the Data City as the backbone of process digitisation and optimisation. It ensures that processes function efficiently, smoothly and in a coordinated manner. “A basic idea of the Data City is to bring people together with the required information and processes in the right context so that they can work highly productively, efficiently, securely and independently of location. windream BPM creates the basis for the automation of routine tasks and the structuring of complex processes. Version 9 of our BPM solution makes this even easier for our customers,” says Nicolas Schwarzpaul, CEO of the dataglobal Group.
