  nQativ Brochure

In November 2006 Compu-Share, Inc. changed its name to nQativ. After 30 years of developing superior software solutions, the timing was right to change our name as we also changed our software with new Activity Technology. For these past 30 years we have used our expertise to help companies in almost every industry imaginable.

In 1977, nQativ's founders determined that the best approach to the software business at the time was through a timeshare service bureau. This approach not only afforded us experience with a rich variety of customers, but also challenged us to make software which works in many different businesses. Timeshare revenues were used to support an extensive software development program.

The timesharing network was phased out after serving its purpose. Since then, both software and support services were continually polished as the nQativ client base expanded. This experience instilled a unique perspective which remains paramount: "Software is not a product; software is a service." This perspective has persisted as nQativ has expanded its services:
  • In the 1970’s, nQativ offered accounting software on a timesharing service with clients all over the United States.
  • In the 1980’s, nQativ moved its software to Digital’s popular VAX/VMS platform. nQativ was the first accounting software company to offer date-driven applications. By this time nQativ had clients in Canada, American Samoa, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and other foreign countries.
  • In the 1990’s, nQativ expanded their offering to include Digital’s state-of-the-art Alpha/OpenVMS architecture. Later in the 90’s nQativ engineers developed an exciting new data-centric architecture called Activity and built General Ledger and Accounts Payable modules around this new technology.
  • In the 2000’s, nQativ has continued development of the Activity technology and introduced Payroll, Payroll Plus, and Human Resource applications. This growth continues today as Accounts Receivable and Purchase Order are underway.
nQativ's goal in all of these areas is to maintain the same high level of service and customer satisfaction that has been our trademark for the last 30 years. That's why we have loyal customers that stayed with us through all of the changes -- and love the result!

The high level of customer satisfaction is maintained through:
  • Maintaining a dedicated support staff to provide prompt, knowledgeable response to customer requests.
  • Creating software that is user friendly, yet offers the power to provide accurate, thorough, and immediate information.
  • Providing accurate user documentation for our products.
  • Earning a proven reputation for satisfying the needs of a large, diverse client base.
