Metallwerk — the metalwork software for workshop, assembly and inspection business

Metallwerk comes as a subscription in three packages, hosting, updates and support always included: Basis at €49.90 per month (up to 5 employees), Pro at €94.90 (up to 15 employees, our most popular package) and Premium at €169.90 (unlimited employees, every add-on module included). Prices apply with annual billing, plus VAT; billed monthly: €59.90, €114.90 or €199.90. For Basis and Pro you can add the customer portal (+€19.90), the Agentur package (+€39.90) and the Einsatz package (+€29.90 per month) individually; Premium has it all. Asset management, project files and invoicing are included from the Pro package, and you never pay per user.

That is what Metallwerk is built for. Installed gates are stored as assets on the customer, with manufacturer, drive and inspection interval. The dashboard shows the due list, one click turns the due gate into an inspection appointment, and after the inspection “last inspected” updates automatically. The per-gate history serves as proof for the operator.

Yes. The dispatch board shows workshop days and assembly days per crew and day, swapped via drag & drop. When rain kills the outdoor job, bad-weather mode turns the assembly day into a workshop day: all appointments move in one go; the crew keeps welding inside.

Yes, through the project file: instalments are numbered automatically (1st instalment, 2nd instalment …), and the final invoice offsets all issued instalments by itself, cleanly itemised, compliant, no pocket calculator. Actual hours run live against the budget.

Yes. When creating an appointment, Metallwerk checks whether the kit is already scheduled on another site the same day and warns immediately. Warning instead of blocking: you decide. The dashboard widget also shows where each kit stands today.

Invoicing is a core feature, not a paid add-on. Invoices are created straight from the completed appointment, right after the customer signature if you wish, with positions from the service template, from the per-metre railing price to repair welding by the hour. Invoice numbers are compliant and gap-free; the number range is freely configurable; existing businesses continue seamlessly from their last number. Plus: PDF with your own letterhead, open items, payment reminders and dunning with one click. If you prefer to work without the invoicing module, simply hide it.

Invoices can be exported as officially validated XRechnung e-invoices. Especially with industrial and commercial clients and the public sector, that puts you on the safe side. Dispatch goes straight from the system by email, via your own SMTP server or SendGrid.

Yes, with one click: the DATEV export produces the posting batch plus all document PDFs for the chosen period, ready to hand over to the firm.

Just a browser. Metallwerk runs as your own instance with its own database on German servers; hosting, updates and support are part of every package. We handle setup and data migration; you receive your login and get started. Prefer to run the software on your own server, or buy it? Custom solutions are available on request.

The live demo is open to everyone: a complete installation with a sample company, two crews, 10 kits, priced templates, a customer with a stored sliding gate (inspection due on the dashboard) and a running project with an instalment invoice. Tap “Als Chef testen” (test as boss) on the login page, done. The demo resets itself every 30 minutes. Want to compare several trades? The demo hub at demos.pixagentur.com shows all live demos at a glance.

Yes. Metallwerk is a web app (PWA) with an app icon on the home screen. The time clock and daily tour work even in underground car parks without reception and sync as soon as the network returns.

Yes, white-label is included. Login, app name and business details carry your company, and your invoices appear on your own letterhead.

Your customer and employee data lives in your own instance with its own database on German servers, GDPR-compliant and strictly separated from other companies. Roles and permissions control who sees what, an audit log documents changes, and uploaded photos are automatically stripped of GPS data.

Yes. Modules can be switched off individually, and from extra fields to entire extensions, quoting or a client portal for instance, we build additions on request at a fixed price. The fastest way is our ticket system: describe your wish and we reply with a fixed-price quote.

No. You only pay the package price: no per-user licences, no setup fee, no extra charges for updates or support. Setup and data migration from your current solution are included as well. The only addition is statutory VAT, and you can cancel monthly.
