What we do and why we do it

We develop customised software services made in Germany for personalisation in e-commerce. By doing so, we want to create inspiring shopping experiences in digital commerce for every customer. To this end, we provide shop operators with our software suite of modular, individually configurable and artificial intelligence-based services. These enable a fully comprehensive 1:1 personalisation along the customer journey of each customer. If the customer is satisfied, the shop operator will be too, which is reflected in increased conversion rates, higher sales and sustainable customer loyalty.

epoq – now part of Entirely: We are now independent again – and now part of Entirely, the first open MarTech ecosystem. Entirely currently combines the solutions from Censhare, Facelift, Marmind, Elaine – and now also epoq – according to the best-of-breed approach, which is being consistently developed further. The goal: to intelligently network leading MarTech applications – for an open, integrated ecosystem that is precisely tailored to individual marketing requirements. Our new home under the umbrella of Entirely by DuMont brings a breath of fresh air, new perspectives – and plenty of potential for joint projects.
