Project Management Software for Technology Startups in Vienna
A Vienna startup often has customers in Bratislava, Budapest and Prague before it has a proper HR function, because the market here has never really stopped at Austria's border.
Regional by market, tiny by headcount
Vienna's business role as a hub for Central and Eastern Europe goes back generations, and multinationals still base their CEE regional operations here, overseeing teams across several countries from a single office. A startup founded in Vienna tends to inherit that same regional instinct early, even at five people: a first customer in Bratislava, a pilot in Budapest, interest from Prague, all before the founding team has any dedicated function beyond "whoever's free."
That's a real coordination problem for a very small team. A founder covering engineering, hiring and marketing at once now also has customers and conversations spread across several countries and languages, without the resources a much bigger regional operation would throw at the same problem.
ShipSprint's Free plan covers 5 users and 2 projects, permanently, and status lives in a card's position on the board rather than a written report, visible the same way to anyone in the workspace regardless of which country they're in. One subscription runs engineering, hiring, marketing and operations together, so growth across a region doesn't mean a new tool for every new market.
A founder juggling customers in three countries at once doesn't have a spare hour to parse a full project before deciding what's urgent, so the workspace opens to "my day" instead: today's items, a one-tap time log, and a single tap to flag being blocked that routes straight to whoever can help, wherever they happen to be.
What an early Vienna startup actually needs
5 users and 2 projects, free permanently, not a trial that expires right as the first cross-border pilot gets serious.
Engineering, hiring, marketing and operations each keep their own board, so a customer conversation opening up in a new country doesn't require a new tool alongside it.
There's no configuration project or onboarding call to repeat for each new market. A board is usable the moment it's created, wherever the next customer conversation happens to be.
A decision written once, with page history, is visible to anyone in the workspace the same day, rather than arriving weeks later, paraphrased, in an email.
"My day" is the default landing screen for everyone in the workspace: today's assigned items, a one-tap time log, and a tap to flag being blocked that routes directly to whoever can help.
No per-country license, even at five people
A regional operation punishes any tool that assumes one office and one reporting line, and that's just as true for a five-person startup fielding interest from three countries as it is for a much bigger regional headquarters. There's no per-country license and no separate workspace per market, just one subscription that covers wherever the team, and its customers, actually are.
Leave-adjusted scorecards travel the same way, showing delivered work and logged hours fairly regardless of which country's public holidays a given person observes that week, useful even for a two-person engineering team split across borders.
ShipSprint is built by Quantuva Technologies Pvt. Ltd., registered in India, with no Vienna office or Austrian entity. Support runs remotely by email and in-app chat, uniformly regardless of which country a customer or hire is in. Billing is in rupees; check the exchange rate and confirm VAT treatment with your own finance team.
Running a regional operation doesn't require watching anyone across those borders more closely, either. Screenshots, keystroke logs and activity trackers aren't part of the product at any plan. A scorecard built from delivered work and hours a person logs themselves, adjusted for local leave, belongs to that person alone, whichever office they sit in.
