 * Weak keep. Oof!  I dislike having to !vote to keep an article this bad, one so obviously intended as an advertisement.  But here at AfD, the only thing that matters is whether notability can be established.  If the sources exist, even if they aren't cited, that's sufficient.  The sources do exist.  The Google books search quickly turned up 1 and 2; I expect there must be more where those came from.  But this is a weak keep because the sources are fairly short and could be argued to be about the company's products rather than the company itself.  Msnicki (talk) 00:15, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I've looked at the links you've posted and I would argue that they don't really constitute significant coverage of the company or its products. They simply mention the company's name in conjunction with a product, and the product is simply one of many in a compilation. There's really no assertion of real notability for the company and products. Ducknish (talk) 16:37, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per A7 criterion. Furthermore,  Delete: there is nothing so special in this company, no reliable sources to base an article upon and no indication of notability on its own (as opposed to its products, seemingly also non-notable) as required per WP:NCORP. — Dmitrij D.

 * Delete (slightly reluctantly) -- Seems to be a NN company producing software applications. It is a bit too advert-like for my liking.  I would like to know more about how many staff it has: two people bought it out, so that it could be a two-man band.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:07, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - No third-party coverage or evidence of notability. Peppy Fazoo (talk) 00:43, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
