Catalyst began outsourced services over 10 years ago with an application hosted on two servers for Plumbing World. From these small beginnings, Catalyst has grown consistently year by year to the point where we are now one of the region's largest open source service providers with branches here in Australia, as well as in New Zealand and Europe.
Open source technologies have enabled Catalyst not only to grow as a company, but also to design, build and host IT systems of national and international significance for organisations like Fairfax and Austereo.
Today we provide open source solutions and services for a wide variety of organisations, including schools, universities, government departments, small business and major corporations.
