Founded in August, 1992, NetCent Communications is a privately-held and funded company situated just
outside of Toronto, Ontario. In its initial stages, NetCent Communications was responsible for the
publication of NetNotify, a leading Ezine for Corporate Computing Network Professionals with
a distribution of 80,000 plus readers worldwide.
Although publication of NetNotify ceased in 1999, it served as the basis for NetCent Communications'
premiere Web site, NCBuy.com.
Launched in March of 1998, NCBuy.com initially served as a shopping facility, providing discount
hardware and software shopping solutions for the Network Professional. While highly successful, one
year later NetCent Communications made the decision to expand its customer base by providing a more
well-rounded site, with in-depth content and services of interest to the growing market of both
personal and corporate Internet users.
