About us

How the hummingbird took off

Extra was founded in 2006 and specializes in system integration, software development, and implementation of business software solutions. After carrying out various national and international projects, we acquired the necessary skills required to serve big clients, and compete with bigger players in the market. Our logo, the hummingbird, represents our agility and flexibility in this competitive market

At Extra, beside serving our customers we are continuously involved in hiring young talents from universities and helping them grow in their career.

This is evident in some of our key members of the staff who started out on a thesis project and leveled up to be responsibles for a team of experts.

Tons of collaborations to offer a complete and reliable proposal

To expand our reach and expertise we partnered with the world’s leading technological brands such as Red Hat, NetSuite, Pentaho, HubSpot e Openbravo, and together with them we have helped numerous businesses across the world to solve their IT problems and prosper. In 2017 Extra’s business units spinned off as subsidiary companies to help them specialize and ease up their individual growth.

Extra was founded with the aim of enabling organizations to respond to its external and internal challenges by providing quality services on the most innovative IT solutions.

We can identify the best software based on different business needs and to implement it in any context. We only choose solutions that bring real and tangible improvements to the business.

Our main strengths are the great attention we give to people who work in Extra. They are the real center around which our entire company revolves. We also pride ourselves on our constant search for excellence through continuous growth and improvement and meticulous care for the customer. We listen carefully our customers' needs as we don't just want to be a mere supplier, but rather a real partner, in win-win relationship for both.

Extra is my life. I am proud that we have been able to create a friendly environment that enables nurturing for our young colleagues, and we have gained experiences in so many different sectors and platforms that now we are able to offer a wide range of IT services to our clients. It is a joy for me to enter the doors of Extra every day and to see the results of years of hard work.
