OUR ROOTS
Born from Retail. Grown for Every Location Portfolio.
CIMPLIFY was founded by property and retail professionals who experienced first-hand how fragmented location management was. Spreadsheets, scattered contracts, missed deadlines, the same problems at every company.
THE PROBLEM
Scattered Across Tools
Every lease, cost and location lived in a different file, inbox or binder. One answer meant opening ten different documents.
Tracked by Memory
Renewals and break options lived in someone's head. A date slipped and the cost landed with no warning beforehand.
No Portfolio View
Leaders never saw the whole portfolio in one place. Decisions ran on guesswork instead of facts and real, proven numbers.
THE SOLUTION
So We Built One System to Run It All.
CIMPLIFY brings every location, cost and lease into one place, captured and checked by AI and controlled from a single view.
Everything in One Place
Contracts structured, searchable and auditable in seconds, not weeks.
Nothing Slips
Every deadline and option tracked and surfaced before it costs you.
One Clear View
The full portfolio run from a single screen, backed by 30+ years of Bergmann Partners expertise.
Thomas Bergmann
Founder & CEO
Built CIMPLIFY on decades of retail real estate advisory at Bergmann Partners.
FROM OUR FOUNDER
“CIMPLIFY was born out of our own frustration. We spent years managing contracts by hand, chasing deadlines across scattered files and spreadsheets and we knew there had to be a better way. So we built the tool we always wished we had.”
MISSION & VALUES
What Drives Us.
Our mission is to give every multi-location business the tools to run smarter, act faster and scale without friction.
Pragmatism
Built from real problems, not whiteboard ideas.
01
Value 1
Pragmatism
Every feature in CIMPLIFY was born from a real problem, not from a feature request on a whiteboard. We build software for everyday use, not for demos. Our team comes from the industry and we co-develop with our clients at every step. That means no theoretical features that sound impressive but never get used. We build what teams actually need on the ground, tested against real portfolios, real contracts and real deadlines. If it doesn’t save time or reduce risk in practice, it doesn’t ship.
Independence
Not investor-funded. We grow with our customers.
02
Value 2
Independence
CIMPLIFY is not investor-funded. We grow with our customers, not with investor expectations. This gives us the freedom to make the right long-term decisions, even if they’re less convenient in the short term. No pressure to chase growth metrics that don’t serve you. No feature roadmap driven by a boardroom. Every decision is guided by one question: does this make our customers’ work better? That independence is what allows us to stay honest, move deliberately and build something that lasts.
Germany Made
Hosting, data and support, all under one roof.
03
Value 3
Germany Made
Hosting, data protection and support, all under one roof, in Germany. Not as a marketing promise, but as lived responsibility to our customers and their data. We chose German infrastructure not for the label, but for what it means in practice: strict privacy standards, GDPR compliance and a support team that speaks your language in every sense. When you trust us with your contracts and portfolio data, we take that seriously, with servers you can point to and accountability you can count on.
Flexibility
The platform bends to your reality, not the reverse.
04
Value 4
Flexibility
No company is like another. That’s why CIMPLIFY adapts to the customer, not the other way around. We don’t believe in forcing your workflows into rigid templates or making you restructure how your team operates just to fit our software. Whether it’s custom fields, flexible module combinations, or tailored reporting, the platform bends to your reality. Your processes were built for a reason. Our job is to support them, not to replace them with ours.
