March 2026 Keeping vessels safe and compliant requires more than checklists. It requires a system that connects the inspection on board with the follow-up in the office — seamlessly, transparently, and without anything falling through the cracks. That's what ZeeBORN's Safety Reports module delivers.

March 2026 We're excited to announce that selected ZeeBORN functionalities are now accessible through your web browser. No installation, no VPN, no setup. Just log in and go.

Don’t miss to add the new ZeeBORN Safety package to your management tools. Like all other ZeeBORN modules, the Safety Package helps to reduce the required workload dramatically while improving the quality of the collected information and distributing information and updates to all involved sites.

Starting with the September 2016 release of the ZeeBORN software, ZeeBORN extends it's free data migration offer to customers still using Interschalt Bluefleet and GL ShipManager. Upgrading from an established management system to a new solution is always a challenge. But circumstances like fading support and missing future development of the current system is usually the main driving factor for making a migration necessary. While the replacement of one software with another software isn't that problematic anymore, keeping all the data collected over the lifespan of a ship and company is still a problem. Quite often a system migration comes together with a certain loss of data, up to a total loss plus having to create and collect the necessary data from scratch again.

Getting a management system running is only one side of the medal. Keeping a management system running over a long time is the much bigger challenge. One of the challenges within fleet management solutions is the maintenance of the data quality within the system. Of course there are already features like user management with detailed access control for preventing users from altering data in the systems they are not supposed to touch. But even if they are allowed to change data in the system, the final result may not match the expectations.

On 19th of January 2013 a new van has been handed over to the students of our local high school in Beelitz (Sally Bein Gymnasium). This gift has been made possible by many small and medium size businesses and private persons in the area and ZeeBORN is one of the proud sponsors.

With the newest release of the ZeeBORN Fleet Management System we introduce a new way of sharing information. Instead of the well known functions like Print, Save, Export you will now find a function called Share. Whenever you see something on screen that you want to share with others, click the Share button and the new Share Center will guide you with a few simple steps through the necessary steps of preparing your data for being shared with others. Depending on your system configuration you will usually find options for printing the data, saving documents to the ZeeBORN Doc format or PDF, exporting data grids to Excel sheets or sending the data and documents via e-mail.

This is not a ZeeBORN product yet but definitively worth following. Everybody who follows our technical efforts to make our solutions more reliable and compatible has already experienced the high level of compatibility with the wide range of different Windows installations used by our customers. In a new internal project we tried to extend this level of compatibility by reducing the dependencies on OS resources or other 3rd party libraries to a minimum. The goal has been defined as: Run the ZeeBORN system from an USB stick on a clean Windows PC without prior installation of additional software or applying any changed configuration. So the targets to be achieved are:

There is only a German language version available of this article. Am 5. November 2007 wurde die Umbenennung der VEINLAND Software GmbH in ZeeBORN GmbH vollendet. Somit wird der bereits als Marke verwendete Name ZeeBORN auch zum offiziellen Namen des Unternehmens. Der Vertrieb der maritimen Software unter dem Namen VEINLAND wird vollständig eingestellt.
