25 Years of Software Development

We are not in a hurry; we are growing slowly and healthily, and we have been doing so for 25 years. That’s a long time in the software industry. Tools, techniques and requirements change all the time. We like the dynamics of the IT industry – we are motivated by change because it has made us what we are today.

We work hard and with full commitment on your project and are not satisfied until you are. Our goal is for you to become and remain our satisfied customer. This clear customer focus is reflected in our high percentage of long-term repeat customers.
