Back in 2001, when OTYS was founded in a small attic, standard software was not yet around as much as nowadays. Standard applications were at the time often referred to as ‘off-the-shelf’ software.
Hence the name OTYS: ‘Off the Incredible Shelf’ with some creative spelling for obvious reasons. A second anecdote on the origins of our company name is that Jorrit Blok the founder of OTYS is a fan of Otis Redding, which has the same spelling challenge ;-). In our current logo, the Epsilon symbolizes people, which are at the heart of recruitment, finding 'A better job for everyone!'
