Our Story

While serving as Executive Vice President at National Processing Company, our founder, Dave Zook, struggled with software constraints that stifled service, quality, turnaround time, and cost-effectiveness while failing to adapt to individual customer needs.

The frustration stemming from these limitations sparked a burning desire to shatter these barriers and foster more productive, harmonious work environments, leading to the establishment of Horizontech in 1998.

Recognizing software’s pivotal role in business success, Zook seized the rise of Internet-based software to create the ultimate customizable and flexible platform for any unique processing need. This innovative platform empowered us to swiftly deploy tailored solutions within 30–60 days from requirements approval.

Picture this: managing over 500 customers, 7,000 employees, and 20 operating sites spanning the U.S. and beyond using rigid software packages. This challenge was the experience of our founder and is at the heart of Horizontech’s story.

In addition, we expanded our hosting capabilities and assembled a diverse clerical outsourcing staff enabling us to further support businesses in optimizing their operations by delegating tasks that detracted from their core expertise.

We were fortunate to attract significant clients early on by leveraging our specialized knowledge in complex processes, compliance, and security. This gave us a strong start and the ability to prioritize the client experience, which was the company’s intention from day one.

Today, we are committed to delivering optimal solutions by selecting the most suitable technologies based on our clients’ needs, complemented by concierge-level service to ensure our clients have peace of mind regarding project management and ongoing support.
