Hard
to believe, but 20 years has gone by in the blink of
any eye.
20 years of architecting, designing, coding, soldering,
documenting and selling commercial products used daily
by millions.
While you may know us as "that online business
productivity store with the friendly tech
support"....beyond the store, we are
"technology-gurus" for-hire and we've worked on so
many software and hardware products we've lost count
-
Electronic
displays for conventions, environment control
systems for fruit coolers, search engines for
NATO, online lottery systems, credit card
gateways, electronic documentation for business
jets, channelized web content networks, police
evidence collection software for Kodak,
photo distribution networks for Fuji, add-ins
for Mindjet, collaboration systems, mega-size
web portals, project management tools, eLearning
and classroom control systems....the list
goes on.
Not an easy company to
"pigeon-hole", if the project somehow involved a
computer and a bunch of people sitting around
scratching their heads wondering how to build
something - we built it.
The
Core Staff and the Virtual Staff
As a project-oriented
company, we operate a bit like a Hollywood studio
when they make a movie - building up highly skilled
staff to do a job, and then reducing staff when they
are no longer required.
On
any given day beyond our core staff, we might
have from 10 to 50 talented electronic designers,
software developers, graphic artists, tech support
staff, project managers, documentation specialists,
and electronic architects working on projects, in
the four corners of the Earth, .who magically appear
and disappear as needed guided by our proprietary QuickStaff
QA™
outsourcing project management methodology.
Our core crew of
architects, tech support, sales, project and general
management has kept the company clipping along at an
exciting pace, forever seeking new ideas, new
inventions, new talent and new capabilities.
The
online store - www.iaresearch.com
The online store was
launched in 2000 to help some of our design clients
enter the world of eCommerce, and to
demonstrate our unique license key delivery system
which delivers a software product ready-to-use as
soon as you want it.
In the beginning, we
began by mailing "soap boxes" of software.
-
You quickly told
us that you were tired of wasting money
on shipping costs of software CD's that show up with
no manual, a box full of air and a $25 shipping
charge.
-
You told us you
were tired of waiting for
hours on support lines simply because the company
you purchased from wouldn't respond to your e-mails.
-
You told us you
were tired of dealing with
online companies that don't understand software
licensing and find yourself with licenses where you're not
even sure if they're legal.
We listened and created
a fantastic online service used by over a hundred
thousand people living in every corner of the Earth,
to download, try, buy and find support for the
excellent products we sell.
Over the last
7 years, iaresearch.com
has established itself as one of the top
business productivity tool shops in the world.
The
Fortune 500 shops here!
When you shop with us, you're joining
thousands of happy customers from schools,
governments, military, science, IT, law,
pharmaceutical and medical corporations around the world.
NASA, IBM, Canon, Dell, Sony, even
Microsoft purchases products through us to save
time, money and to obtain the type of service
you expect when you purchase software.
We don't have phone waiting
queues. We have 24/7 e-mail support, that DOES get
answered, quickly, and if you need to contact us
quick, just call
514-633-2444 and our bilingual operators will relay
your request to the appropriate staff immediately.
Thank you for visiting
and we look forward to serving you for the next
20 years!
