His vision was to provide companies with standard financial management software that would run on the then-dominant mini computer systems. After the launch of the IBM personal computer in 1981, the company designed and developed its software for PC-based computer networks. With growing demand for such networks worldwide, the software's functionality was extended for international markets and in 1988, new ERP software products for PCs were launched under the 'Scala' brand. During the early 1990s, the company expanded in Central and Eastern Europe and worldwide, quickly developing a network of partners and resellers to serve its growing customer base around the world. In 1996, the company renamed itself as iScala, taking the name of its market-leading ERP product. In 1997, iScala Business Solutions was formed in The Netherlands through the merger of the Swedish-based founding company and its largest partner. In 2004, Epicor iScala was formed through the merger with the US-based Epicor Software ompany.
