Hephaistox brand
What is Hephaistox?
Hephaestus is a Greek god who inspired early industries thousands of years ago. He is the god of tailor-made solutions, a god of craftsmanship whose products are of great value and stand the test of time. He is also a god of automation and innovative solutions.
So, we named our company after him, and we chose his name and blended it with the letter x, which stands for flexibility, growth, and inclusion.
We prefer long-term solutions, prioritizing the quality and reliability of our products.
Priority to local cooperation
Our goal is to provide high-quality solutions to small and medium-sized industries. We target these companies because we firmly believe that Europe's strength and self-sufficiency lies in its local businesses. We are committed to offering these companies solutions that are often reserved for large corporations.
Helping local businesses grow also benefits all businesses in the local market
No bullshit
Many companies boast great virtues but few actually follow through on them.
We keep our promises, and for each value displayed on this page we take concrete actions to make them real.
We don't believe in big words and vague concepts, so we will talk with you about facts and possibilities.
Knowledge sharing
We are committed to sharing our knowledge to foster growth and innovation for all.
Most of our work is public, publishing articles, speaking at events, and open-sourcing most of our code.
We are excited to enable collaboration and accelerate shared understanding of supply chain, business, and IT.
Transparency and trust
We value transparency and trust, which is why from the very beginning of our work together we want to be clear about the costs and expected return values at each stage of the project.
The culture of feedback
We are always happy to give and receive feedback. We believe that feedback is the cornerstone of improvement.
Growth
We believe that the growth of a company is linked to the growth of its people. This is also reflected in the quality of its products and services. That's why we make sure we have time to grow our knowledge and set goals that are both company-wide and individual.
Agile manifesto
We endorse the Agile Manifesto manifeste agile. The following excerpts will be meaningful to our clients:
- Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer by quickly and consistently delivering high-value features.
- Welcome changing requirements, even late in the project. Agile processes leverage change to give the customer a competitive advantage.
- Deliver working software frequently with cycles of a few weeks to a few months, with a preference for shorter ones.
- Users or their representatives and developers must work together daily throughout the project.
- Working software is the primary measure of progress.
- Agile processes encourage a sustainable pace of development. Together, sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.
- Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design reinforces Agility.
- Simplicity – that is, the art of minimizing the amount of unnecessary work – is essential.
