About the EVEX Group

The EVEX Group consists of two software medium-sized companies, IPRO GmbH and AMPAREX GmbH. AMPAREX is a leader in the market for software solutions for hearing care professionals, while IPRO specializes in software for opticians. The group leverages the deep industry knowledge and successful software solutions of both companies, capitalizing on economies of scale and new technological potentials to offer a unique value proposition to “other service providers” in the healthcare sector.

Both companies provide their customers with an all-in-one service, offering software, hardware, and support in a comprehensive package. AMPAREX offers an ERP Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution that covers essential functions from customer management to invoicing for various service providers. IPRO stands out in the market with a modular ERP software solution, allowing a high degree of customization in terms of software features.

In the future, customers of the corporate group will benefit from a shared, cloud-based product called AMiRO. This innovative solution builds upon the existing and familiar offerings while incorporating new technological advancements.
