Its been a while since I last posted and shame on me.... but there is a reason. Being calved out of a big American Corporation isn't easy. Suddenly we have to have our own internal systems like HR, Finance, CRM, Licensing software etc the list goes on! Simple you may say...well let me tell you it would be simple if we were all in the same country and all had the same conditions and we all had large offices with finance and HR present. Its not like that, its like we are a sophisticated Start-Up for each country!
Difference is, we have income coming in immediately and we are now a private Company owned by a very large investment Company that has extensive knowledge of doing these carve outs.
Injecting money and growing a Company is high on the agenda with additional sales staff and most importantly, new Lab developers. All this is happening whilst we are trying to get a brand new Version Uniface 10 out the door. Talk about making it hard for ourselves.
Well I believe we are still on track with that first release which will showcase the new IDE. Uniface is a very powerful development environment, it just looks old fashioned. With the new version released it will bring us right up to speed with look and feel so that younger developers will pursue it.
So Uniface B.V is now headquartered in Amsterdam back to its original home. New Building, New Logo, same management with additions ( someone has to look after the HR and Finance) with total control resting with the management, there is a noticeable change in everyone's attitude.
I have to work from home...its not bad. I have my own coffee machine ! I spend a lot of time on the road anyway.
With our new branding and our "Can Do " attitude, we can pursue the reseller/ Distributor market which is the best solution for us especially here in ANZ. Not everyone is suited to reselling Uniface. It needs to be a close partnership
