History

Founded on January 1, 2005, 01.com started as a global, 24/7, remote computer services consulting company. The run-away success of Zimbra in the market place persuaded the company to redesign itself around its leading product. Because of the team's past experience leading multi-million dollar, business-focused ISPs, software development, and enterprise consulting, and with the scale and experience to deliver true 24x7 support, the company was uniquely positioned to lead the introduction and support of Zimbra.  Since early 2006, 01.com has innovated and led support of the Zimbra software and its customers globally.  As of 2008, 100% of the company's revenue comes from supporting organizations using Zimbra.
