Past, Present, and Future
When IBS launched operations in 1979, the use of computers in small to mid-size company operations was virtually nonexistent. Nearly four decades later, technology has transformed the way the business world operates. Throughout this revolution, we consistently have remained a recognized New York/New Jersey regional leader in providing unique and best-of-breed IT services and solutions.
We established our Managed IT Services department in 1999, in response to demand within our initial client base of IBS property management/accounting system users. Today, we assist a diversified customer base in industries such as real estate, law, accounting, logistics, office and home furnishings, and many others.
In 2014, IBS became an employee-controlled organization, acknowledging the commitment of our team members and strengthening their stake in the company’s success and future. IBS always has been known for its outstanding client service and support.
As we move ahead to a bright future, IBS looks forward to continuing our long-term partnerships and fostering new relationships built on the integrity of our products, the intensity of our support and the quality of our team.
“We feel the most obvious and exemplary attribute of the entire IBS organization is the customer service. From the president on down the employee chain, every person really wants to help solve whatever problem you have. There is no issue too small or too big, IBS tackles them with creativity, care and concern in a very timely manner.”
“The support staff is by far the biggest benefit of IBS. No matter what the issue, they are quick to help. They are experts who explain procedures in a clear and concise manner, and everyone is friendly, knowledgeable and will not stop until whatever issue or question you have is resolved.”
