Infor (JBA) System 21?
A recruiter asked me if I had heard of INFOR System21, because he had found an old blog talking about JBA and JBA System21.
He wondered if they were similar applications.
![What is Infor (JBA) System 21 1 Is the jba software logo better than the infor system 21 logo?](https://www.nicklitten.com/wp-content/uploads/jba-software-logo.jpg)
The Answer is YES:
- System 21 is an ERP – Enterprise Resource Planning solution.
- System/21 ERP was originally written by JBA in the 1980’s
- In the late 90s JBA was acquired by GEAC Computer Corporation. But the JBA branding remained.
- Later, around 2007 Golden Gate Capital bought GEAC for $1,000,000,000.
- INFOR Global Solutions, a Golden Gate subsidiary, now controlled the System21 ERP, and it was rebranded as INFOR SYSTEM21.
Make sense?
