2017

A new R&D center in Ostrava, Czech Republic, was established in June and Y Soft China Ltd., a new subsidiary, opened in August in the Shanghai District Technology Development Center to support growth in China, the world’s second largest market.

In Brno, Czech Republic, Y Soft’s manufacturing, logistics and shipping staff moved their operations out of headquarter offices into a nearby, larger area in November. The new facility allows for larger volume capacity in manufacturing YSoft SafeQ hardware in addition to prototyping and testing new designs for our R&D teams as they work on new innovations in YSoft Lab projects.

2016

With the introduction of YSoft SafeQ 6, our flagship enterprise print management solution becomes a platform. As a platform, it now includes document capture and 3D print management in addition to print management. YSoft SafeQ is also integrated into YSoft be3D eDee, the first 3D solution that combines a 3D printer with a print management, workflow and an accounting system.

2015

Y Soft becomes the first company to offer print management as a subscription service for all major multifunction devices. Y Soft introduced and ships version 2 of DeeRed, an industrial manufacturing 3D printer with a larger print volume capacity.

2014

A new version of YSoft SafeQ 5 was released, complete with a range of new features and enhancements. We bought a majority stake in be3D, a company that develops and manufactures 3D printers, thereby expanding our portfolio to include 3D printing. We set up Y Soft Ventures, a venture capital fund designed to support innovative projects. Y Soft won the CzechInvest "Investor of the Year" award in the IT and Shared Services category for 2013.

2013

We acquired Equitrac Systems of Australia and established an office in Dubai. We became the first company providing print management solutions with offices around the world and customer service in all time zones.

2012

The updated YSoft SafeQ 4 included a range of revolutionary features such as Print Roaming, Private Cloud and Mobile Printing. The Brno headquarters relocated to a new building with a stylish work environment fostering employee satisfaction and creativity.

2011

We established an office in Miami, Florida to support the customers and partners in Central and South America. Y Soft invested significantly in the expansion of a quality assurance (QA) department for testing purposes.

2010

We introduced the new YSoft SafeQ Terminal UltraLight and YSoft SafeQ Terminal Professional with a full-color display. Václav Muchna received the "Technology Entrepreneur of the Year" award for the Czech Republic and "Entrepreneur of the Year" for the South Moravian region.

2009

We introduced the offline remote spooler (ORS), designed specifically for companies with a print volume exceeding 100 million pages per year. Other revolutionary innovations also included a new terminal for Xerox, the first to integrate the YSoft SafeQ web interface directly into a multifunction printer.

2008

We developed a USB card reader designed to facilitate card authentication on integrated terminals. Y Soft established new offices in Japan and Israel. The acquisition of XpertImage resulted in the establishment of a key office for the US market in the Dallas, Texas area.

2007

We launched the remote server (RS), a predecessor of the offline remote spooler (ORS), in order to provide large corporations and institutions with offices around the world an efficient system for the transmission of print tasks and centralized print management and reporting services.

2006

Thanks to the enormous success of the YSoft SafeQ Terminal Professional, we were able to buy a production line. In addition, to further improving our terminal hardware, we developed the first integrated terminal for multifunction printers. Ernst & Young presented Václav Muchna with the "Emerging Entrepreneur of the Year" award.

2004-2005

SmartQ was renamed YSoft SafeQ. We introduced a revolutionary hardware terminal, the YSoft SafeQ Terminal Professional, with a large touch screen and integrated proximity card reader.

2003

We introduced SmartQ, software designed to control the printing and copying process and also the predecessor of YSoft SafeQ. SmartQ enabled secure printing through a server, copying based on SNMP communication with the printer, blocking printing functions and charging for printing services. Y Soft was the first company in the world to introduce this precise charging system.

2000-2002

Y Soft was founded in 2000 as part of a student project at Masaryk University in Brno. After several failed projects, the new company managed to secure a key order. We developed the first application enabling the authentication of printer users using a card reader – the predecessor of the current Print Roaming module. We found our market niche, thereby focusing our entire development process on the control of access to printed documents using identification cards and readers.
