Our story

At home with NPOs and associations

Creativ Software was founded in 1989 and has been working with non-profit organisations (NPOs) and associations in Switzerland ever since. Close collaboration with aid organisations, foundations, associations and trade unions has given rise to deep industry knowledge over the decades.

Since 2018, Creativ Software has been part of NEXUS Schweiz AG. Together, we focus on solutions for the healthcare and non-profit sectors.

Our philosophy

We don’t see ourselves as just a software supplier, but as a long-term partner to organisations that stand up for people and causes. That is why we combine deep sector knowledge with an open platform: we standardise where best practices create an advantage, and stay flexible where every organisation works differently. Honest, transparent and on an equal footing – that is how we want to work together, so that our customers have more time and resources for their mission.

Certifications

Certified information security and quality

Creativ Software is certified to ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO 9001. This means an independent body confirms what matters to us anyway: handling our customers’ data with care and delivering work you can rely on.

ISO/IEC 27001

Information security

Internationally recognised standard for information security management. The certification confirms that we do not leave information security to chance but manage it systematically with an information security management system (ISMS).

Systematic protection of sensitive data – confidential, intact and available
Risk management: identifying, assessing and treating risks in a targeted way
Continuous improvement of security processes

What this means for you: The data of your donors and members is protected according to clear, independently audited rules.

ISO 9001

Quality management

Internationally recognised standard for quality management. The certification confirms that our work is based on clearly defined processes that we continuously review and develop.

Structured, documented and traceable processes
Continuous improvement based on experience and feedback
Consistent focus on quality and customer satisfaction

What this means for you: Projects, support and further development follow reliable processes – you always know where you stand.

Our values

Values that guide what we do

Christian values are our foundation. Our customers stand up for people and causes – for those in need and the disadvantaged, for their members, for nature, culture and society. And they give a voice to people who would otherwise not be heard. Anyone who receives so much trust from donors and members needs a partner who takes this trust just as seriously.

HonestyWe say what we can do – and also what we can’t. Plain words instead of sales promises.
TransparencyClear, transparent concepts, fixed prices and open communication. No hidden costs, no extra charges added later.
ReliabilityWe stand by our commitments – many of our customer relationships have lasted for decades.
ResponsibilityWe handle our customers’ resources with care, because they are donations and membership fees entrusted to them.
RespectWe treat customers, partners and employees as equals – with appreciation for every person.

Relationships and trust matter more to us than short-term advantage – because every franc our customers use effectively ultimately serves their mission – and with it the people they work for.

Our team

A team built on friendship and solidarity

Behind the Creativ platform is a team that supports one another. We don’t just work together – we value friendship, solidarity and a spirit of cooperation in which everyone takes responsibility. Today we employ 26 people across service support, service projects, development, AI services, sales and administration.

This is also reflected in exceptional employee loyalty: many colleagues have been with us for more than twenty years. Our customers feel this accumulated knowledge and continuity in every project – they have had the same familiar contacts for years.

What drives us is a shared goal: satisfied customers who can achieve more with our platform for the people they stand up for.
