Untis is...
... for planning, taking decisions and having information always at hand; for everybody who is responsible for planning: for teachers and students; regardless of whether in schools, universities, institutes of applied sciences or any other educational institution.
Our vision
»Our vision is based on the idea of making everyday life at schools easier.«
Untis is there to help bring all the parties in a school – teachers, students, parents and the administration – closer together, in order to save time and to concentrate on the most important issue of all: your lessons and taking care of your students.
In addition to Untis’ special expertise in our field, our strengths especially lie in our personal customer service and partnership-based cooperation with customers.
Our values
- Focus on our customers and service
- Continuity and reliability
- Top quality and sustainability
- Security and continuing development
Ongoing development guarantees that Untis always meets the latest developments and requirements of our customers.
Very early in life, Bernhard Gruber and Heinz Petters had one thing in common: their fascination with computers and programming. In January 1970, the two gentlemen invented the first timetable scheduling programme for schools with the mainframe computer S/360 from IBM. The programming language they used at that time was called Assembler.
In 2020, Bernhard Gruber and Heinz Petters will celebrate the 50th anniversary of their company, and while both enjoy looking back, they also like to look ahead. Gruber & Petters has been renamed Untis, and today, more than 50 employees work in the departments of development, marketing & sales, support and administration.
