Our story

One might think that software and software engineers have nothing to do with passion. One might also think that the Corporate World is all about figures, profit, hard negotiations and long hours inside meetings and inside the office. One might even think that what we do every day is to take a huge amount of data, apply some complex mathematical functions and create algorithms.

We, here at dcs plus believe that one might also be wrong in making these assumptions. We state this very clearly because we know a different story. We know a story about passion, a story with long nights of hard work that seemed to be only minutes. We know a story full of challenges and successes from overcoming them. We know story that seems to have no limits.

We talk about a story full of passion because this is how we came into existence back in 2002 when the company was founded by its current owner inside the University Campus. We know it was passion because everything that was done back then by a small group of computer science graduates was done with the desire to make a difference. To stand out from the day to day stories and challenge everything and everyone.  

We talk about courage in our story because with every little success we had more and more courage to be bolder and explore more…and challenge more and more people and mentalities.

With the passing of the years, part of the passion turned into experience. Part of the disappointments transformed into new challenges to overcome and so, in 2004 we have started to work on the ERP system TINA. Back then, it was hard to decide if we should embrace the new emerging web technology or use the well proven client-server architecture. We took the chance and developed everything in web based technologies. In December 2005 we have officially launched the product inside the Romanian market.  We put all our dreams and hopes, all our disappointments and passion, all our courage in this. We gave everything that we could to create a product which will be new from every single point of view (technology used, customer care, business model customization, consultancy services, implementation model). It was great. In 6 months time most of the top travel agencies inside the Romanian market were using TINA. 6 months later we were signing an exclusive distribution agreement together with Amadeus IT Group which became the sole distributor of TINA across the CESE region as early as 2007. This story is still to be written as since then we are deploying TINA in more and more markets every year.

If you think that the passion died together with the successful launch of TINA you are wrong because after we climb the first wall there were many more to climb. This is why, in parallel, we have developed two more products TBS and AIDA in order to cover other areas of the travel industry.

During all these years, dcs plus team acquired experience, know-how and business expertise, managing to create a completely range of fully optimized and scalable solutions, being able to cover any scenario that may appear in the activity of a travel agency. Understanding very well the industry and knowing different types of business models, dcs plus can offer reliable advice and consultancy, also being able to recommend the solutions and practices that best fit each client needs. The support, guidance and follow up offered by dcs plus team are meant to bring added value to those who want to improve and grow.

Today, we are as passionate about what we are doing as we were in day one. We still dream to change everything and we challenge ourselves on a daily basis. And if one might assume that we had a lot of fun doing it, one would finally be correct.
