The core management team is still united, more than 25 years later. We always just wanted to grow a cool company, and we still do. The passion continues to burn and our vision remains clear.We grew up with the financial industry. From a start-up working with small broker-dealers, we have scaled to manage petabytes of data for the largest global banks. We have also expanded our solutions for asset management, insurance, energy, government, public companies, and other regulated organizations.We have seen regulation evolve, while watching privacy, security, and jurisdictional law take center-stage. Through it all, we have constantly adapted and innovated to relieve customers’ pain points and help them overcome any challenge. Our customers are fiercely loyal because we are always responsive and really understand the challenges they face. They keep us close on their journey.We have never taken outside investment. At the start, we couldn’t get it when we wanted it. Now we don’t need it. We are profitable and proud that we bootstrapped our company from four to 1,600+ employees, as well as 20,000+ customers. We control our own future, free from the distraction of targets set by external investors.Our business has grown through reputation, the quality of our products and services, and our unrivalled attention to the customer. We don’t make promises we can’t keep, making sure our customers avoid disappointment and unexpected cost.We always build our own technology patiently. Acquired, bolt-on technology comes with baggage we don’t want our customers to carry. We like things to work well together, in one system, beautifully designed, and to a consistently high standard.We were pioneers in cloud technology from day one, building our business on a simple subscription model for hosted technology. It all began during the Open Source Movement, over 25 years ago. Thanks to the contributions from the University of California, Berkeley and many others, we were able to build our software entirely on top of open-source code. This allowed us to innovate faster and at a lower cost, and still does today.Engineering and design takes time, investment, and patience. We love solving complex problems as a team, using the latest technology and methodologies. We mix experience, talent, and innovation to deliver effective products.Why do people come to work for us and stay?

Furthermore, our private data center, completed in 2013, has achieved net-zero carbon emissions from day one.
