The software was NOT conceived. Rather, it evolved
over 10 years. Every feature has been built to fulfill a client’s
need. And, it continues to be developed as a solution to specific
market needs and trends.
Like many great software companies, Ontra Presentations software
started with IBM. When PCs first became equipped with sound and
motion, IBM needed a multimedia opening sequence for their new Thinkpad™
and APTIVA™ models. The opening sequence needed to be translated
into 24 languages. Structuring the software on a database was the
most efficient means to support 24 versions. Since then, the software
has been used by more than 250
business groups within major corporations and has approximately $20MM invested in it to
date. In 2002, Ontra Presentations acquired a perpetual worldwide,
royalty free license to sell and develop the software.
