History
In September 2001, development commenced. On August 1, 2002 we placed a beta test version of CIDS
on our web site. We informed 26 of our customers about CIDS and they began using it. At the same
time, other connector users, by surfing the net, discovered our site and also began using it. On
January 26, 2008 we had over 15,000 registered users.
On January 27, 2003, CIDS was released to the public and is no longer considered a beta test version.
