Launching a business is no small task. From developing the business idea, defining the legal structure, and analyzing the market to financial planning – it’s complex. But Jürgen Herbert went even further: he knew the software had to fit the industry’s specific needs. That’s when his search began — and ended with Zoho and codafish.

The Right Software for Complex Requirements

10Built on years of experience, knowledge, and a clear vision, Jürgen Herbert founded ParaQare, a personnel services company specializing in the German emergency medical sector. Today, the team includes 100 part- and full-time employees and nearly 130 temporary staff. At ParaQare, work is more than a job – it’s a responsibility. Their mission: ensure that ambulances are fully staffed at all times so people in need receive help quickly. Jürgen knew exactly what the business model required: “Having worked in personnel leasing for years, I was very familiar with the software needs — and the gaps in other systems,” he explains. He needed a complete system with a high level of customization and digitization.

Tailored. Digital. Complete – The Solution: Zoho

Google didn’t just offer one good result during Jürgen’s search – it gave him two: Zoho and codafish. “I had already spoken with a competitor, but then I got in touch with codafish,” Jürgen recalls. And who won him over? Our CEO, Timo Müller. “Timo’s pitch was so convincing, I chose codafish on the spot.” But it wasn’t just codafish’s enthusiasm — it was also Zoho’s capabilities. With more than 55 integrated applications, Zoho offers digital solutions for nearly every business function, all customizable to the company’s needs. The all-in-one system Jürgen was looking for had finally been found.

“Many things convinced me to work with codafish — especially their deep knowledge of Zoho’s individual apps. And Timo’s ability to summarize our complex project and propose a solid solution using Zoho was truly impressive.”

From Wish List to Implementation

Every project starts with defining goals — and ParaQare had many. “At the start, we needed a software suite that could actually cover all the elements of our daily operations,” says Jürgen. Zoho turned out to be exactly that: a fully integrated suite where applications communicate with each other, process data across modules, and enable nearly all workflows to be digitized. A key goal was achieving a high level of automation, particularly in the areas of documentation and personnel services. “To this day, we’re still implementing automations that other companies are doing manually,” Jürgen reports. The result? ParaQare Medic is operating with almost no paper.

The Journey Is the Goal – The Mantra of Project Management

It all sounds a bit too good to be true when you present the successful outcome of a project, doesn’t it? But anyone who has ever been part of a software project team knows: challenges are always part of the journey. And ParaQare Medic was no exception. “German complexity can be a hurdle for some software systems,” Jürgen reflects when asked about the complications he and his team faced. “We’re familiar with the often complicated German way of thinking — and Zoho, still relatively new to the German market, had to learn this. That’s why some logic flows within the software didn’t make immediate sense to us.” One of the toughest aspects? Implementing the solution while running day-to-day operations. Zoho People, Zoho Shifts, Zoho CRM, Zoho Books, Zoho Mail, Zoho Cliq, Zoho Projects, Zoho Sheet, Writer and Show, Zoho Forms, and Zoho Recruit were all configured and tailored step by step. Sounds like a lot? It was. And yet, despite a few bugs that still needed refinement, Jürgen Herbert truly values Zoho’s power in handling complex business requirements — “especially because external customizations can be implemented so effortlessly,” he adds. And how do you achieve that? With a strong partner by your side.

“There don’t seem to be many Zoho agencies out there with such deep expertise across the entire Zoho product range like codafish. Hats off! I want to, can, and absolutely will recommend this agency 100%!”

A Rock in the Digital Zoho Surf

The list of applications to be implemented was long — but codafish got it done. “The entire codafish team was incredibly well-organized and did a great job from start to finish,” Jürgen summarizes. “Working closely with Timo, I quickly realized he’s not only a highly skilled developer but also incredibly committed. And the rest of the team? Always available when issues came up and ready to help. That kind of support is absolutely priceless.”

ParaQare Medic and Zoho – A Fully Automated Symbiosis

ParaQare Medic is now up and running with the Zoho Suite and proudly reports that all processes have been fully automated, with a significant improvement in data quality, among other benefits. A result that truly speaks for itself — even if there were a few bumps along the way. “Zoho is complex, but powerful. And while we first had to get to know the software in all its facets, I’m convinced that the final result will be outstanding,” says Jürgen — offering a word of encouragement to all future Zoho users.
