Welcome to the debut of the blog section of Entigral's website. Here you can expect to find periodic blogs about our company, technology, and industry.
To start, let's answer a question we hear a lot these days, "What's up with the name 'Entigral'?" This can really be two questions: "Why did you rename the 25 year-old company System Concepts, Inc. to Entigral Systems?" or "What's the significance of the name?"
The answer to the first question starts with System Concepts' initial mission. For twenty years the company was a successful integrator and value-added reseller of Automated Data Collection products. Over the last five years we have been developing TraxWare, a software platform that increasingly is the basis of our sales. We (and our customers) think TraxWare is something special for tracking assets using new sensor and processor technologies, like RFID and mobile computers. The name change reflects the new mission: we are now a software company.
The answer to the second question lies in one of those Ah Ha moments. We knew we needed to rename the company, per above. When you are searching for a name you really are searching for your very essence. We kept asking ourselves what it was we really did at the core. We track assets, or objects, or things, or in a technical term, entities. And there you have it. A couple of twists on the theme produced "entigral" -- hey that sounds good. And when the domain search found "entigral.com" to be free, it was clear -- Entigral Systems was meant to be.
