HORIZONT Software GmbH, located in Munich, Germany, was founded in 1993 as R.O.S.E. by five OPC consultants, later renamed to HORIZONT in 1997. The company specializes in integrating mainframe applications into the enterprise DevOps process.
The company's product line, including OPC/Graph (now IWS/Graph) and XINFO (SmartIS in the US and Japan), has gained recognition as the de facto standard for TWS compatible software, with more than 150 customers worldwide. HORIZONT's offerings also encompass products such as IWS/BatchAD, IWS/BatchCP, IWS/Audit, DSN/Change, SmartJCL, IWS/WebAdmin for IWS z/OS, and ProcMan—a modern change management system for workload objects.
In 2012, HORIZONT became part of the Beta Systems Group, marking a significant milestone in its journey. As of now, the company does not have publicly disclosed information regarding its last investment or investors.
With a strong foothold in the market and a comprehensive product portfolio, HORIZONT Software GmbH continues to play a significant role in enabling DevOps processes for mainframe applications, representing promising potential for venture capital investment consideration.
