The team of the Ukrainian "Terrasoft" goes to "Lanit" in full force
As TAdviser found out on March 15, Lanit agreed with the Russian team Terrasoft on its complete transition to itself. The company previously announced its withdrawal from the Russian market amid Russia's military operation in Ukraine. The staff of the Russian office "Terrasoft" is more than 80 people, proposals were made to all employees, specified in "Lanit."
 | The company "Terrasoft" announced a complete exit from the Russian market. It terminates any activity related to it both directly and through dealers, breaking all partner contracts. Despite the unacceptable act of Terrasoft and its non-constructive position, the technical specialists of the Lanit group, having many years of expertise in the vendor's technologies and access to an open platform, will support customers, regardless of the manufacturer's position. Given Terrasoft's stated position, we are not going to conclude any contracts with it or cooperate in other forms, TAdviser told Lanit. - We have agreed with the Russian team on a complete transition, which will make it easier for us to support customers in our country. |  |
The company added that they work within the framework of the current legislation of the Russian Federation, comply with all its requirements and do not plan to transfer money to foreign legal entities. In the current environment, the undoubted priority for Lanit is to maintain the continuity of business processes among customers.
News of the team's transition was preceded by an appeal to Lanit President Philip Gens, State Duma deputy, head of the committee on information policy, IT and communications Alexander Khinshtein. In his Telegram channel, the deputy wrote that Norbit, a company within Lanit, planned to acquire the Russian division of Terrasoft. He expressed concern in this regard, because Terrasoft had previously announced the termination of work with Russia and Belarus for political reasons and the transfer of 2 million hryvnia (approximately 8 million rubles) to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine[1].
In such a situation, any payments by Russian business structures to Terrasoft are de facto funds to fight the "Russian invaders," says Khinshtein.
| | Of course, I immediately informed the leadership of the Ministry of Digital Industry of Russia about what was happening, and also contacted the general director of the Norbit Group of Companies Philip Gens. Mr. Gens expressed surprise, saying that he did not know anything about Terrasoft's struggle with Russia (which, frankly, is weak), and the upcoming deal was due solely to his desire to preserve the potential of the company, which had previously worked actively in our market and was even included in the register of Russian software developers, - wrote Khinshtein in his Telegram channel on March 14. - I was forced to warn the head of "Norbit" (incidentally, the graduate of the University of Birmingham and the Chicago school of business) about inadmissibility of any money transfers to fighters against "Russian aggression" and all negative consequences which in this case for it will arise. I hope he heard me[2] | |
According to the deputy, at the time of his appeal to Philip Gens, when visiting the site, the www.terrasoft.ru was redirected to the Norbita website. At the time this story was published, the page at www.terrasoft.ru is not available.
In a conversation with TAdviser, Alexander Khinshtein noted that Terrasoft received at least half of its revenue from the Russian market, and it turns out, including from these funds, transferred money to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The deputy believed that if the deal to acquire the Russian division of Terrasoft took place, then in this case, in addition to its legal assessment from the point of view of financing the Armed Forces of Ukraine, it would be necessary to revise and provide Lanit with state support measures that he receives as an IT company.
Lanit says that they did not consider the possibility of a deal to buy a business with the American or Ukrainian division of Terrasoft.
Terrasoft BPM Online and BPM Online Marketing products (since 2019, the Creatio brand) were excluded from the domestic software register back in October 2021. The Creatio platform is open, distributed as a commercial Open Source.
According to the TAdviser project database, among the customers of Creatio products are Russian Post Norilsk Nickel, VimpelCom (operates under the Beeline brand), Russian Railways Technologies, FC Uralsib, Uralchem, Ozon.ru and many others.
