Palo Alto Software

Palo Alto Software is the worldwide leader in business plan software and marketing plan software. The company was founded in 1983 by Tim Berry, a business planning expert, Stanford MBA, and co-founder of Borland International with a long history of technology sector leadership in the Silicon Valley. Despite the company's name, Palo Alto Software is now headquartered in Eugene, Oregon, with international offices in London and Ireland.

Our core business is developing and selling Windows-based desktop software for startups and small businesses.

Business Plan Pro is our flagship product. For nearly a decade, it has been the business world's most popular business plan software (according to NPD Intelect, formerly PC Data), outselling all of its competitors combined, and it is regularly on Amazon.com's top 10 list of best-selling business software. Business Plan Pro is available for sale on our website and in Staples, Office Depot, and many other retail locations.

Marketing Plan Pro is the #1 selling marketing planning software for 10 years running. With Version 11.0 we have partnered with John Jantsch, author of the popular Duct Tape Marketing system, to produce software that will create a vital, energized action plan of marketing goals and activities for any size business.

Email Center Pro, which launched in early 2008, is our first Web-based "software as a service" (SaaS) application. It makes it easy for small organizations to manage shared email accounts like info@yourcompany.com.
