History

Orfeo was conceptualized in 2002 by Denis Lopez and developed by Jairo Hernán Losada and Julian Rolón, in collaboration with other engineers in Superservicios, putting an early version of the product based on excerpts of code 'DocuImage' (a software that allowed the viewing of documents through the browser), which also worked Jairo Losada.

After the first developments sought a name for the tool and a vote among some users and developers, In 2003 was chosen by a proposal from Julian Rolon: Orfeo, because unlike other proposals such as DOCfile, PAD (Document Management Platform) etc., seeking acronyms, just the explanation of Orfeo (Orpheus) is said "Bard Greek accompanied Jason on the quest for the Golden Fleece" that difference did the fate of the application name.
