AVANQUEST RESEARCH LABS

Roger POLITIS

Co-founder and Chief Technical Officer of the Avanquest Software Group

“ For more than 25 years Avanquest Software has designed and developed best of breed software. Specializing in communication solutions, utility and multimedia software, the Group employs 180 engineers and developers at Avanquest Research Labs all over the world.

Avanquest’s multidisciplinary teams anticipate market trends and offer their customers software solutions based on three unfailing principles: high quality, cutting edge technology and a great user experience.

A GROUNDBREAKING CHANGE IN MODEL

The era of the single software solution in a complex toolbox, is over. Users want simpler solutions designed to meet their specific needs, modular, and featuring high-end performance.

Whether it is optimization with Fix-It or System Suite, managing photos with Photo Explosion or designing internet sites with WebEasy, all of Avanquest’s flagship software solutions are evolving towards a service-based subscription model, with permanent updates.

The SaaS (Software as a Service) model also makes it very easy to offer the customer additional services: online backup, sharing content with contacts, professional printing of photos or documents, or online content hosting.

All of Avanquest’s new solutions are developed so that they can function in Cloud mode, to respond to the new market trend involving the use of light peripherals to connect to the internet and enjoy a range of services traditionally provided by PCs.
