About Cansoft

The Cansoft Story

The CanSoft story starts before there was a CanSoft -- back in 1989 when Tom Baker, CanSoft's founder, first used J.D. Edwards ERP products. As a customer, Tom Baker appreciated and understood the potential of ERP software and the power of J.D. Edwards' products. Armed with their portfolio he formed CanSoft in 1993. 

Eight years later and with over 45 J. D. Edwards' ERP implementations, in a variety of business environments, CanSoft has evolved to into a company of over twenty consultants, each an expert in their own field, from a diversity of industry backgrounds.
