In order to focus on its core business and provide customers with broader access to expertise and know-how, MTF Solutions AG, a subsidiary of Swisscom and leading provider of IT services for SMEs, is handing over its entire Abacus business to Axept Business Software AG, the leading provider of Abacus ERP solutions in Switzerland, which is also part of the Swisscom Group. This strategic move allows MTF Solutions AG to focus its resources on the areas of consulting, IT services and the further development of its private cloud solution.
