Company Info

Feng Office is a privately held company founded in 2008 with headquarters in Montevideo, the capital city of Uruguay. It started as a degree project at the Faculty of Engineering, University of the Republic, called Opengoo Open Source Project. It was championed by Conrado Viña, a software engineer, and developed with fellow engineers Marcos Saiz and Ignacio de Soto. The project was highly successful. They released the code to the public and started the Opengoo Community. The founders then started Feng Office in June 2008 as a commercial company to continue the development and support of the Opengoo Project, and rebranded it in 2009. CEO Viña now looks forward to continue to turn the software platform into a great business.
