OPTIMAL SYSTEMS is one of the leading German, owner-managed providers of enterprise content management software (ECM). More than 450 employees in Germany, Serbia, Austria and Switzerland support the installations and ECM solutions of several thousand customers, some of them worldwide.
In addition to almost 30 years of experience in software development, OPTIMAL SYSTEMS' core competences include a broad experience in providing ECM solutions for all kinds of industries in the market as well as software-related services on various levels. OPTIMAL SYSTEMS' high technical integration competence, individualization and personal expertise prove to be particularly valuable.
OPTIMAL SYSTEMS offers a wide range of software solutions and thus perfectly completes the Kyocera Group's Enterprise Content Management portfolio. Kyocera hopes that this investment will enable the company to offer its customers a broader portfolio and thus open up new customer groups. OPTIMAL SYSTEMS will remain independent and will be continued unchanged.
Norihiko Ina, President of Kyocera Document Solutions Inc.: "Thanks to the cooperation, we are now able to offer new, optimally tailored solutions in the fields of consulting, hardware, software and services, independent of location and at any time, which will allow us to make our customers' business processes even more efficient.
Karsten Renz, founder and CEO of OPTIMAL SYSTEMS GmbH, says about the purchase: "We are absolutely convinced that we will grow faster internationally within the Kyocera group, because we can now additionally offer our ECM know-how to Kyocera customers in order to significantly support their digitization processes. Developing economical, customer-oriented solutions is part of the mission statement of both companies. Following this philosophy, OPTIMAL SYSTEMS and Kyocera complement each other perfectly.
