1Office: The 4-year journey from a newcomer to a key player in the Vietnamese tech scene

The first steps

In 2015, 1Office was launched after more than 10 years of nurturing and developing the idea by Mr. Le Viet Thang (Founder & CEO of 1Office) for a comprehensive business management software.

“Every beginning is difficult.” In its early days, 1Office faced countless challenges, primarily financial. The operational costs of a software technology and the entire team posed a significant problem for 1Office at the time.

However, with the determination, unity, and companionship of the entire staff, 1Office gradually grew stronger, overcoming all the initial difficulties of a tech startup and taking firm steps on the path to building a high-quality, made-in-Vietnam ERP software.

Speaking about the early difficulties, Mr. Thang shared: “My greatest success is not the 1Office product, but the companionship of my partners and employees. In the future, the company will launch more products, but my top priority will always be the team. I am proud that over the years, we have never owed a single penny of salary to our employees, even during extremely difficult times.”

A key player in the Vietnamese ERP market

After 4 years of official operation, 1Office has successfully established a significant position in the Vietnamese ERP market – a market that is both promising and fiercely competitive.

With over 70,000 users from nearly 1,000 businesses, including major players like: MB Bank, Hoa Phat Group, Dat Viet Beer, Canifa, Media Mart, Phong Vu, TocoToco, Cong Ca phe,… 1Office’s average monthly revenue is around 1.5 – 2 billion VND/month.

Not only trusted by businesses, 1Office has also received recognition and accolades from professional organizations. As proof, after 4 years, 1Office has won many prestigious awards such as the Sao Khue Award for a 4-star product in the field of Small and Medium Enterprise Management Software, the Potential Startup Award at Startup Festival 2016, the Creative Startup Award from Vietnam Television (VTV), and more.

Throughout its 4-year development journey, 1Office has always been proud to be a companion, working alongside Vietnamese businesses to help them save maximum time and resources. It has gradually affirmed its important position in the information technology industry in general and the ERP field in particular.

Future Vision

“Never stop moving forward” is the common slogan for all 1Office personnel. Not content with current figures, 1Office has set strategic goals and development directions for the long run.

According to Mr. Le Viet Thang, 1Office aims to reach a monthly revenue of 3 billion VND by the end of 2019.

Additionally, 1Office is on a roadmap to expand its customer base by entering markets with cultural and developmental similarities to Vietnam, such as Myanmar, Cambodia, and the Philippines; while also establishing Workway Global in Singapore to penetrate that market.
