About Openia

Established in 1999, Openia continues to help clients identify, deploy and maintain information technology solutions that truly integrate within their business operations.

Understands Business

Our experience has shown us that successful technologies are those that are sympathetic to successful business cultures and vice versa. Big or small, businesses are managed by real people with real everyday problems and objectives and therefore understanding your business environment, your own work culture and aspirations is key to how we respond to your requirements.

Independent

We offer the independence and the depth of resource to help achieve best-fit between your needs and well-supported and proven technologies. This maturity in our approach has so far produced viable and sustainable solutions and lasting partnerships with our customers.

We focus on the latest open source technologies such as Linux, Apache and Zope.  This approach guarantees highly secure and stable solutions at much lower cost of 'home brands' proprietary software. We also pride ourselves in the ability to host, co-locate and manage client servers at state of the art facilities at the Bunker Data Centre (Newbury). Our staff members also have a wealth of experience in training clients across a wide range of subjects.

Friendly Every Step of the Way

Openia is a customer-friendly company, guiding clients through every stage of their online projects from initial concept design to full operation. Where clients already have an Intranet or Internet presence, services include migration to open source solutions and the enhancement of existing applications.

With the aspirations of each individual customer uppermost in our mind, we offer solutions which take full advantage of our successful track record, applying a wide range of Internet technologies to meet the needs of a varied and international commercial, government and academic customer base.

Aware

Company policy guarantees that our solutions have Usability and Accessibility built-in at the design stage. This ensures that these features are integral to the site, not merely an afterthought. Furthermore, this approach also ensures that we meet strict public sector guidelines on website design. Based in the UK, Openia was formally established in 1999 (originally trading as Wey Valley Consulting Limited) and employs staff who have been involved in the Internet since the late 1980s.
