Ashampoo Software

Ashampoo is a prominent software development company that specializes in system utilities, multimedia applications, and office productivity tools. Founded in 1999, the brand established itself early on with the release of its flagship disc-burning software, Ashampoo Burning Studio, and has since expanded its catalog to include photo editors, system optimizers, and security suites.

Headquartered in Rastede, Germany, the company maintains its primary operations, development, and support within the country. While it serves a global digital market, the software is fundamentally a German-engineered product. The brand is currently under the ownership of Ashampoo GmbH & Co. KG, which continues to operate as an independent entity in the software industry.
