New Mexico Software was founded in 1995. Originally, the company ran out of a small office on Moon Street. New Mexico Software went public in 1999, amidst the dot com boom of the late nineties. In the same year we moved into a corporate office building in central Albuquerque. And we’re still here 8 years later. Things were moving fast at the end of the nineties, and optimism was high. It seemed like a new technological world was emerging, a world that would write its own business and economic laws. We, like many others, attempted to ride the economic wave that characterized the nineties. Unfortunately, we caught the wave as it crashed. And crash it did, taking many companies with it. However, New Mexico Software persevered through the dot com crash and managed to survive. New Mexico Software survived because we identified a serious problem area in Information Technology: how companies deal with digital information. We based our strategy on the belief that companies could save money and time by more efficiently managing their digital assets (a digital asset is any digital file deemed valuable by a person or organization). We believed that Digital Asset Management was a serious enough issue that our business could achieve success and longevity by solving this problem. We were proved right as New Mexico Software was able to ride out the storm while many Internet based companies crumbled and sank in 2000. Our business survived on the strength of Assetware- our first web-based Enterprise solution. It was our first stab at creating a web-based product that stored and indexed digital files at the Enterprise level. Assetware carried New Mexico Software through the difficult early years, but eventually it was time for the product to retire and be replaced by the next generation.
