About Favendo

Favendo is a German company based in Bamberg. In 2014, Favendo was founded to transfer eCommerce’s added value to stationary retail. Their main challenge was to implement product search, as known from eBay, Amazon & Co., in stationary retail. Searching, finding, and tracking goods and people in the real world quickly became a fascination.

The company specializes in indoor positioning and mobile tracking and navigation solutions. Long-standing customers include SAP, FRAPORT, Hammerson plc, and MSC Cruises. Favendo solutions are used and distributed by Trilux and Phoenix Contact. Favendo created the RTLS Location Engine and indoor location application platform Commander and uses input from partner companies such as Abeeway and Quuppa.

Favendo’s success is based on its international team members’ skills, creativity, and engagement. A competent staffed advisory council and huge market experience are providing support in strategic decision-making.

Prompt discovery, help, and evacuation during emergencies, lowers injuries and fatalities.

Proximity marketing or also synonymous with Bluetooth marketing is the distribution of relevant content or commercial offers on the mobile phone depending on the position of the user. These location-based services work inside and outside buildings. With the help of continuous tracking via GPS or beacons, the app pushes relevant offers and information when the user is near a defined point.

FAVENDO ASSET TRACKER VIEWER

It was created to increase companies’ productivity within search times. The ATV can be used without being integrated into an existing system (e.g., ERP/CRM) and, aside from Asset Tags and Trackers, it is not necessary at all to use hardware or software in addition.

Favendo’s Asset Tracking Viewer is available via browser from any internet-enabled device. Since the ATV is set up on-premises, instead of the cloud, it does not require an internet connection to work. Its approachable design allows it to be used on mobile devices like smartphones or tablets.
