A Brief History Lesson

In 1994 a company called Highbridge was created toprovide applicant tracking software for staffing agencies. The first product was called EZaccess. The company was soon renamed to EZaccess to match.

Some time in 1998 EZaccess was renamed to PersonicSoftware, and later to Personic. Personic used the technology underpinning EZaccess to develop an associated product, Workflow for Human Resources departments. Broadly, EZaccess is for "external" recruiting and Workflow is for "internal" recruiting.

In the Spring of 2000 Personic very nearly went public, with a very enthusiastic "buy" recommendation from Credit Suisse First Boston but missed the opportunity by a hair's breadth. The "dot com" crash and recession hit.

Personic survived -barely- and in June 2002 was bought out by a company called Xperius. The records show that Xperius is led and staffed by the same people who led and staffed Personic. Draw your own conclusions.

In July 2003 Xperius was bought by Unicru. Unicru assumed the support of EZaccess and Workflow product lines and customers.

In March 2004 the company and its assets were bought by Bond, as announced here.
