Company history

01 Communique was founded in 1992 to provide businesses and consumers with all-in-one communications software. The company's first release was a fax program called 01 Fax. Its next release would be the COMMUNICATE! series, unified communications software combining fax, e-mail, voice mail, text recognition, and paging capabilities.

The company's focus switched to PC remote access and PC remote control software in the late 1990s. In 2000, the company filed for U.S. and Canadian patents related to the technologies they have invented and used in their commercial software. US Patent #6,928,479 and #6,938,076 were awarded in August 2005.

On March 8, 2000, 01 Communique began trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) under the trading symbol ONE. The company had been previously trading on the Canadian Dealing Network.

In 2010, 01 Communique opened offices in Arlington, Virginia, to promote its newest products and services in Web 2.0. platforms, including I'm InTouchMeeting that allows businesses and users to communicate and collaborate in realTime, with bi-directional capabilities. The company plans to release its I'm InTouchMeetingPRO by August 2011.

Lawsuit Against Citrix

In February 2006, 01 Communique launched a patent infringement lawsuit against Citrix Systems alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,928,479. The lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court, Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division.
