About the author Dominik Reuter — Founder & Software Analyst

B.Sc. in e-commerce (THWS Würzburg-Schweinfurt) and years of hands-on online marketing experience. At Toolsplorer I test software the data-driven way: independent review sources, price monitoring, and real user feedback instead of marketing claims.
