Our goal is to be the engine that powers global commerce. So, we’ve built a distributed order management system in the cloud that stands apart from the rest. It’s not rigid, but flexible at scale. Something clients and partners love. Why? Because they can build customer experiences that are unique. Never boring. And as customer preferences change, our clients can adapt. Quickly. We’re a techie company at heart. We’re passionate about changing the landscape of order management. Some of our tech is actually pretty cool. And we’re a cheeky challenger brand. Our competitors are big. Enterprise. And a bit dull. So, we lead with purple to stand out and like to have some fun.

In 2011, our co-founders, CEO Mark Coulter, CXO Adam McWhinney, NED Conrad Yiu, and founding CEO Brian Shanahan, decided to change the way people shopped for furniture and homewares. They unearthed a little known, but important Australian story. That of convicts William Temple (a carpenter) and John Webster (a carver and gilder) who were commissioned by Governor Lachlan Macquarie to make two fine chairs. As a result of their teamwork and craftsmanship, the pair were pardoned.
