Micro-Sys / Microsys - software and hardware

Deciding on a company name for this business was not a trivial issue, and a lot of ideas for possible names came up; among these was a certain name used by someone in Seattle for micro computer software.

In the end though, as the concept included hardware, i.e. complete micro computer system with hardware and software, the name became Microsys. However, to make the name more flexible for other concepts in the future, a dash was introduced, Microsys became Micro-Sys.



Micro-Sys / Microsys - custom software

The hardware part was never finished as cheaper alternatives came to market. However, the name Microsys, or in fact Micro-Sys, still encapsulated the core essence of the company.

Today, our primary focus is on developing and providing custom designed software as part of our business solutions. These projects often utilize specialized hardware in production environments.



Micro-Sys / Microsys - computer micro systems

Back in 1977, Henning Schulz worked on designing an affordable computer based on Intel technology including software for normal business purposes like budgeting, production planning and the like.

The business plan was to make EDP (electronic data processing) available for businesses too small to invest in the traditional technology.

Micro-Sys / Microsys - both can be used

Micro-Sys is our officially registered name. However, not everybody remembers the dash, probably because our company name is pronounced microsys.

Because of the history behind the name, we have also registered Microsys as an official company alias / secondary name.
