Description
SSI: Your First Choice for Fuel and Propane Software
We built our first software program in 1978- the era of the Mainframe computer. In those days, a night operator did a reel-to-reel backup of the previous day's transactions and recompiled the program. The reels were reviewed by development staff the following morning.
Our first module, SSI Accounts Receivable 1.0 was written in a language known as Cobol. It was cumbersome and difficult to work with; it was even more difficult for the end-user to learn.
We had four full-time programmers who worked on the application for more than a year. In 1980 we took it to market and created a Service Bureau, which did monthly billing. This $365,000 investment had almost reached break-even point, when a couple of young men built something in their garage called a PC.
