The MAPILab Ltd team was formed in 1999 specializing in product development for email systems. One of our leading products was a system of visual design of email processing algorithms for creating automated systems and integration email with databases and information systems. Our clients included: banks, e-commerce providers, ISPs and other organizations whose data exchange between information systems is based on automatically generated emails. In 2003, we became interested in the Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Exchange Server market, which began dominating in the business environment. The company was sold to a foreign investor, and product development process was transferred to the Czech’ R&D office of the new owner. In 2003, MAPILab was founded. Thanks to well co-ordinated team-work and gathered experience, the group introduced a number of award winning products for Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Exchange Server, and received Microsoft Gold Certified Partner status within a year. By 2006, the company released more than 20 products for Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Exchange Server, such as: MAPILab Rules for Exchange (for creating email processing and routing rules on the Exchange Server) and MAPILab Toolbox for Outlook (multifunctional like a Swiss Army knife: it offers 18 tools for Microsoft Outlook 2000-2010 users). Having gained popularity as a high quality and innovative software developer, the company actively participated in international exhibitions in the USA and Europe, such as: CeBIT, Microsoft TechEd, the Microsoft World Partner Conference and many others. By 2008, the company had 40 staff members, a list of almost fifty products and more than one million users. As sales of Microsoft Outlook and Exchange Server became stable, the company started looking for fast growing and new perspective markets.
