Company employees represent 23 nationalities who have a presence in offices in Norway, Denmark, Germany, Ukraine, France, and North America. And, they like to share. Those qualities in a society have been known to make the world a better place. As a corporate philosophy, those qualities have made eZ the world’s largest open source content management software company.

eZ uses a combination of open source solutions and enterprise software, so you get the openness of sharing and eZ’s total product responsibility. eZ Publish combines various features to give you everything you might need, from a starter package, through platinum-level customization and support services.
